Two years old

Somehow, 2 years have passed and Ashlyn is two! I don't know where the time has gone. Ashlyn is growing so fast. She is growing into such an amazing and wonderful little girl. I honestly could not have been blessed with a better child. She is so sweet and loving. She is very well behaved for a 2 year old. She adds so much joy and love to our lives each and every day!

Ashlyn's two year appointment is next week. Apparently, at her pediatrician's office, they ask you to fill out a huge packet before the appointment. There were all sorts of tests that we had to do with Ashlyn to see if she is developmentally on track. I was amazed at all of the things she could do. Here are some of the things she can now do:
-She can point to pictures in a book. If we say where is the ball, she points to it.
-She can imitate a 2 word sentence.
-She can carry out tasks without us giving her clues or pointing. Example- Put the toy on the table.
-She says 3 words sentences that represent different ideas together.
-She can walk downstairs by herself
-She can kick a ball
-She can string beads on a shoelace.

She is a very talented little girl. She loves books just like her mom. She would have me read to her all day if she could. She is such smart girl. Sometimes she is too smart! At least once a day, she will say some word that we are just amazed that she knows. Its too cute!

We continue to feel so blessed to have been given such an amazing daughter. I am excited to watch her grow and learn. She is truly a gift from God!
