We are all (Daddy, Chase and Asher) in love with you so much. We would all agree that you rule the roost and are for sure the Queen of our lives. You are incredibly sweet, sometimes sassy and have a bit of spicy rolled in there for good measure. You are so in awe of both your brothers and when they go to school you are constantly asking when they will be home. If we are out running errands and you see a school bus, you start calling for Chase and get upset when I tell you that Chase isn't on that specific bus. Asher is your sidekick when you are looking to cause trouble or tease someone. The two of you run circles around the house stealing toys from one another but in the next second can be found sharing snacks and cuddling.
You are very much Mummy's girl still, though you are showing Daddy more attention than you have previously. I hope and pray we always remain this close. We still end the day with stories and rocking for a couple of minutes just so can snuggle.
It amazes me how independent you are at just TWO years old. You love to pick out your clothes, always ask for a bow, love shoes and want to wear your backpack everywhere. You yell at the boys when I am talking sternly to them lol, and love to help me in the kitchen and with laundry. Your job around the house is to feed Cisco (sometimes the bag is so heavy that you have to use all your might to drag it across the floor and refuse to let anyone help you), and to let him out back and back in. Again you refuse to let anyone else do that. You adore Cisco and he quite often will hangout by you so you can pet him.
I know I've raised you right as when you see Target you throw your hands up and yell "yay!" I took you to get your nails done for the first time for your birthday and since then you ask me to paint them every . single . day.
Most days are hectic with school schedules and your brothers activities and we dont always get to sit and play the way I wish we did but I know that as long as you are next to me you are one happy girl.
Sleep: Hayley is a great sleeper at night, however a few months before she turned 2, she decided to start dropping naps. More often than not she does not nap and so she is in bed by 6:30/7pm and sleeps until around 8am. Once a week, maybe, she will take a two hour nap. It's glorious when she does.
Social: Hayley was born a social butterfly and still is. She will not hesitate walking into a room full of kids and mixing right in with all of them. By proxy she has become friends with Chase and Asher's friends, she does not care that they are 4+ years older than her. With being the third child and the boys school schedules I haven't been able to put her in any kind of classes but come the fall I am hoping to get her into a dance or gymnastic class.
Diet:Overall she is a good eater. Just like when she was a baby, she loves all meat. The more flavor the better!! Lady Hayley loves her sweets and if candy has been left lying around she is on it. Her favorite foods are eggs (eats them everyday), avocado, chicken nuggets, cheese, and fruit and ice cream.
Skills/Milestones: At this point there isn't much Hayley can't do as far as two year olds go. She can be found running, skipping and jumping (she loves jumping on the trampoline), and climbing. Girl can get down with herself when music comes on. She has really gotten the hang of coloring and holds the crayon great. Everyday she is saying new words and is putting together 3 words sentences. Some of her words are "Disco" (Cisco), "Ace" (Asher), "Hase" (Chase), "ba bom" (bath bomb), "neigh" (horse), "eese" (cheese)
