Our tiny baby turned 2 years old on Monday! Unbelievable. It seems like she shouldn't have changed that much from the little munchkin we met in August 2009. And yet...
Michaela had her doctor's appointment yesterday, and now weighs 26 pounds (40th percentile) and is 34 inches tall (60th percentile). She stood on the scale like a big girl to get weighed, and attended the appointment wearing her Minnie Mouse "big girl" panties, because she is doing quite well on her potty training (contrary to what she displayed during the excitement of her birthday party).
She loves to talk, and surprises me with new words every day. The longest string of words put together occurred this week, when she kept saying/singing "Happy Birthday to you." We have moved her into her "big girl bedroom over the past week, and she is sleeping in a twin bed with rails and doing fine now. She is even starting to refer to it as her "own."

We had all sorts of fun family over for a party on Saturday. We barbecued, and ate cake (see above), Michaela opened presents, and generally enjoyed each other's company. Perhaps everyone but poor, tired, little cousin Greyson had a great time.
