This post is brought to you by the number 2!

Aubrey is all about the number 2 these days. It all started with the new story she got for Valentine's, "God Gave us Two". She started to refer to the story as "two". Then we noticed that if we said the number 1 she would follow it with "two". This week she has been finding two's of everything. At the bookfair she found 2 of the same story, she wants to hold 2 sippy cups and have 2 animals to hold. But, the funniest thing was last night. After dinner, Aubrey wanted both pudding and ice cream for dessert. We finally agreed upon pudding. After she gobbled it down she started signing for ice cream. I told her that we only get 1 dessert and she already had pudding. We had this same conversation over and over again. Finally she signed ice cream and before I had a chance to respond with my 1 dessert explanation, she held up both her fingers and in the sweetest little voice she said, "twoooooo". Both Jeff and I started laughing. Which didn't help the situation, but it was so darn cute.

Very much enjoying her pudding!

Like Father like Daughter. You know Jeff has really enjoyed his meal when he licks his plate clean. Aubrey must have seen him do it - because she will do the same!

Aubrey is so over having mommy help her with anything. She must clean her face herself!

Aubrey has also been picking up on colors lately. If you hold two different colors in front of her and ask her to pick out, for instance, the red one, she can do it correctly almost every time. So I decided to up the anti. She had made a huge pile of her crayons and colored pencils. So, I asked her to find a crayon of a certain color. She did really good on blue and pink. The other colors took a few tries. I think all of the options were a little overwhelming. I guess blue and pink are her favs.

She added a new word to her reading repertoire, "baby". One of her books has both words "mama" and "baby" on most of the pages. This book has much smaller and much more text on each page. But, she can pick out those two words on the pages anyway. It's really cute too, because she runs her fingers across the words as if she is reading them until she finds one of the words she knows, and then she shouts it out excitedly while pointing to the word.

We got to go and try out JJ's new trampoline on Tuesday. Aubrey really enjoyed it - even though it was all soaking wet from the rain the night before. She wanted to "bounce bounce bounce" like Tiger and "run run run" like JJ. I was glad when she finally wanted off because my feet were freezing!
