One of my newest favorites: anything I can dip. I like to dip it as far into the sauce as I can. lick it off, and dip again. Mom says it is pretty hard to watch.
Here I am eating french fries with Daddy dipped in Ranch.
Too bad I really don't eat much, if any, of the fries. Sure love that ranch though!
As you may notice, I was in a mood this morning. Mom said it just made it easier to drop me off at my first day of preschool.
This is me saying "No!" everytime mom got out the camera.
What can I say, I was in a hurry.
Using my new expression: "Yee-haw!"
Got the Whole World in my Hands
I made it!
Tate got to come over the other night while his parents went out. We had a blast! Here we are watching Dora while waiting for our pizza to come.
I showed him my playhouse.
And then we ran around the yard with Dad. Mom says it doesn't take much to entertain (almost) 2 year olds. Whatever...we sure had fun!
Mommy and Daddy and I went downtown yesterday. I got to ride the Light Rail for the first time. "Wheeeeeee!!!!"
If Mom leaves the coat closet open, she has to expect I'm going to find something fun to do inside!
This glove will work nicely.
We just got back from our trip to California. So fun! Sure loved the ocean!
And the sand!
Building a castle with my cousins.
More swimming at Uncle Tom and Aunt Em's pool.
So cool.
Trying to get a family photo.
This is Mom's favorite. (Check out my face).
The best we could get.
Mom walked in and found this: Me on my potty doing a little reading. (Seat up and all.) No I am not potty training yet...although this is my favorite seat in the house!
Deep into a good book.
Enough please. Do you mind?
Someone recently told Mom that I have "Farrah Fawcett hair". She'd never thought of it that way but it is sooo true! Not that we have a problem with Farrah Fawcett's hair but on a 21 month old, it is a little much. I have so much hair (I know, not a bad problem to have) but I won't let Mom put anything in it to keep it back (atleast for more than five minutes). Don't try to come near me with scissors either or I'll scream and flail around! (Has Mom mentioned I'm strong willed?) So unless we come up with another option, I guess I will continue to have Farrah Fawcett hair. This is me straight out of bed in the morning! 
I've got some news that I'm so excited to share. Maybe you can figure it out by my shirt in this picture or the one on the top of the blog.
Yep, you guessed it! I'm a big sister in training. (I'm working on being a little gentler with my own baby). Look below at the ultrasound pics. You may just find out if I'm going to have a sister or brother!
Doing a head stand...always moving!
Profile and spine.
Little tiny foot. So that's what I've already been feeling!
Drumroll please.....It's a girl! Don't ask me how they know from this picture but they were 100% sure. Tessa's going to have a little sis!
Swimming, swimming, and more swimming! Mom got a job helping a friend with her pool business. So we've been checking out different pools making sure they are doing their job right! Good thing I love to swim!
My friends Tate and Averi have been able to come along and swim too. Love them!
Gotta love cupcakes after a hard day at the pool!
Nobody has told us for sure but I do everything with my left hand.
Sure do love to color!
We were waiting to see if we'd get to go see fire works but it rained all evening so we decided to stay home. Oh well. Hope everyone had a happy fourth of July!
While Mimi and Pop Pop were visiting last week, Daddy and Pop Pop decided to go sky diving (well sort of...it was a simulation indoors) for Pop Pop's birthday. Here I am helping them get ready 
Posing with Dad before taking flight
There goes Daddy!
And Pop Pop! Hope you had a fun birthday!
