Cute Sayings---"I don't KNOW where it is!!! I find it (looking under the couch). There it is!" "I love you too!" "Where's Adeline? I can't find her" (mimicking us playing hide and seek with her) "No thank you, I don't like it." "Go to church and sing songs?!?" "Oh my goodness!!!"

Recent things she's learned/ developmental milestones---Alphabet song, holds writing utensils appropriately to color, talks mostly in sentences, counts to 10, knows shapes and colors, improved abilities with puzzles, beginning to pretend.
Nighttime routine---Bedtime between 7 and 7:30. Some nights mommy gives you a bath. Mommy changes you. You kiss mommy goodnight. You are given your paci to sleep. Daddy reads you books, prays with you, sings a song or two, rocks you, and lays you down.

I'm so excited to see you and little (or not so little anymore) Adeline! It's funny that I spent a year w/ you guys in Korea and now she's completely differnet (in a good way, like talking a lot more). See you soon!
Happy birthday baby girl! I wish we could be there to help you celebrate. You and little e could party all night long! (Well, until 7 pm...)
Much love!
Oh to have a 2 year old again.
Happy birthday to your little darlin'.
Happy Birthday to Adeline! :) And such a good post idea. I should have done something like this...I can't remember half the things C liked/did when she just turned 2. It almost feels like a lifetime ago. How scary is that?!
Happy Birthday Adeline! I loved reading all about you! Last time I saw you your biggest verbal accomplishment was "grilled cheese." I can't believe you're talking in sentences already!!! :)
Happy birthday, Adeline. I loved reading all about some of your favorite things!
Happy BIrthday Adeline! I loved reading your list. You will hit it off with Mauryn when you meet some day.
Happy Belated Birthday Adeline! I was just thinking "I think Adeline's birthday is coming up soon..." I was a little late I guess. This is such a sweet post too -- makes me even more excited to hang out with her again on Wednesday. Again, Happy Birthday girl!
Happy (belated) birthday, Adeline!
