Audrey celebrated her 2nd Birthday yesterday. Days leading up to the big day we made sure she knew what to say when asked how old she was going to be. There were times she'd say "two" and other times she reply with "dos". Thanks to Dora the Explorer, Audrey not only counts to ten in English but she can do it in Spanish too. We're certain she's a genius! 
I took my first official extended weekend away. I went to Chicago with my sisters and my mom and had a great time. I will admit though, I missed Audrey a lot! I hadn't never gone a day without seeing her so this was a big step for me. Daddy and Audrey had a great weekend together, although he said she did asked for me at times. When I got home, I received the biggest Monkey hug ever! She's become very affectionate, giving a lot of hugs and kisses but only if the mood strikes her.
At just two years old she is talking quite a bit, even full sentences. It's so nice to be able to ask her what she wants or what's wrong and actually get an answer. While she's changing so much there are still a few things that remain the same. Like the fact that she is still a very picky eater. If it weren't for Mac n Cheese and cereal she'd go probably go hungry. She's a late sleeper now. Most days we have to wake her up in order to get to out of the house on time. It's nice on the weekends though. There have been times I'm awake before she is. She's still a very strong willed little girl. She knows what she wants and wants it when she wants it. We've beared witness to a few tantrums here and there but luckily not in public yet. We've been contemplating her first haircut so something tells me we'll see that soon rather than later.
