Still Two and Oh M GEE!

 Dear Micaela,

     They told us that the two's were terrible...yeah you have thrown a few tantrums here and there but this last week you have been a handful! You were pretend cooking in the kitchen with quinoa, water and some bowls. You were having so much fun and then decided it would be fun to move the bowl to the living room. I told you "No Micki you can't cook in the living room" Well that was not what you wanted to hear! You threw the plate on the ground...when I told you we don't throw things you proceeded to slap me. So You got a timeout on your chair...You were livid!!!! You were throwing your arms back kicking screaming and just acting like the exorcist. I had never seen an episode like that. You have been relentless about things you want ...Today you wanted an orange flower on our walk home from the park so you cried and screamed the whole way home for an "ORANGE FLOWERRRRR" Daddy and I were not happy with this. Finally I started singing a song about how bad you wanted that orange flower and how everything else was a different color. You are very strong willed and won't take no for an answer.

   Bedtime has been crazy too...We have had a bedtime routine since you were 3 months old. Your night time sleep has been amazing. You know what to do because were sleep trained you at 6months and you have loved your crib ever since. Well these past few days you have been stalling in every way possible! "Water!!' "You covered me wrong!" "This is the wrong cup" "Rock me Mommy" Oh my goodness we are exhausted!! Your bedtime has gone from 8pm to 9pm!!

Food: You love eggs, chicken and rice, oatmeal, tempah, turkey and all fruit.

Sleep: Still on 1 nap 1ish to 330ish.

Language: OH MY GOSH...You are seriously amazing. Full conversations and amazing questions. No doubt you are a genius! haha

Fun Things you do: You love playing dress up! Especially with my underwear! haha. You are truly obsessed with stories..."tell me story about a little girl who watched to much TV and then count dracula came"
