two.





































To Estella Plum...at two-years-old.

Your first full sentence was, "oh! It's a hat!"

You ask Alexa, "Play moo-sik."

You say, "thank you" and "you're welcome" so clearly. And if someone (usually your sister) doesn't say "thank you" when you give them something, you say "thank you" and "you're welcome" in different voices. 

You like to hide in various places and then yell, "boo!" when someone finds you or you jump out and yell it and laugh. You are such a character.

You talk so very clearly. You say, "Greta" and refer to yourself as "super Greta" a lot as you trail a blanket behind you and go running back and forth. We keep telling you that your name is Estella. You want to be just like your big sister. (This note was from six months ago...you now refer to yourself as Estella Plum)

You are so wild yet so so sweet. 

You are all about the "mine" and "I do it" theses days.

Your scream could shatter windows.

While getting dressed the other day, when I put on your shirt you said, "bye butt-om. See you later!" (Referring to your belly button)

You refer to chicken as "bawk, bawk".

Your refer to your vagina as your "jugga".

You woke up dry and wanted to use the potty, and while you were going, you tooted and said, "Wha's that? An elephant?" Totally seriously, by the way. Your delivery is golden. I couldn't stop laughing and then you did your fake laugh..."he, he, he, he, he."

You sing many songs from "The Sound of Music" and "Frozen". But the best part is when you hide behind me or Greta and lean to one side and say, "Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

The other day, you said, "Wha's that smell?" And you went around from person to person, sniffing them and exclaiming, "pee- eeeeeewww!" When Daddy picked you up and hugged you, we realized you had pooped and you were just trying to be funny.

When something is missing, you will be the first to jump up and say, "I find it!" and you proceed to put your nose to the floor and start sniffing and scooting around like a dog.

You wanted to go to the park and have doughnuts on your birthday and so we did.

You weigh 26 lbs and are 34" tall. Your height is something like the 96th percentile and your weight is the 40th.
