Two.

Anniston is TWO!! I cannot believe it! I never really believed parents when they said your children grow up in the blink of an eye, but I definitely do now!













  • Anniston is 28 pounds, 14 ounces (75th percentile), and 33 inches tall (50th percentile).
  • She can sing the whole alphabet song with minimal promptings from us. She can identify the letters A-B-C, and she knows that her name starts with the letter A. 
  • Anniston is finally getting the hang of colors. She had a hard time for a while. She knows black, white, yellow, orange, and pink. Pink is her favorite color. 
  • She loves all of her baby dolls. I find this extremely funny, because I hated dolls and the color pink.  We waited until she started to show interest in dolls before buying her one for that reason.
  • She loves bugs!! Her favorites are ladybugs, spiders and snails.  She got a spider bite a few weeks ago and was so excited about it! She showed everyone, and now she is really distraught she healed. Ha.
  • The zoo is her favorite place to be. The animals that she always requests to see are the kookaburra, the okapi, the panda, the dragon (komodo dragon), and her newly adopted baby hippopotamus (see Anniston's birthday party post for explanation). 
  • Anniston started potty training this week. It seems to be going well, but we are keeping our fingers and toes crossed, hoping it continues.
  • She really fancies crab. Anniston has expensive taste like her dad. She isn't too keen on shrimp, but she loves most seafood.
  • Anniston really just likes food in general.  Her most used sentence is, "What are you eating?" After she receives her answer, she follows up with, "Can I have some please?" She gets the please in there most of the time. Ha.
  • Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood is her absolute favorite thing to watch. When she is watching it, she has a huge smile on her face the whole time. I'm thinking it's because she only gets to watch one episode a day at the most, so it still hasn't lost its novelty. She also loves Curious George, Sofia the First, Mickey, and Minnie Mouse.
And that's our not-so-little-anymore Anni at 2 years old.
