So big....

We celebrated 2 years of life, love and laughter on May 31, 2010! So for our 2nd Anniversary we took the day to go on a Biosphere 2 tour. I wish I would have gotten more pictures, it was so cool! I highly recommend it to anyone, although do be aware of the fact that the tour is 2 and 1/2 hours long! And it can get hot. But we had lots of fun, and Lyla even enjoyed it too, especially the echo chamber.
In the past few days Lyla has really blossomed! She has all kinds of new tricks, and I thought I would share them here. We have really enjoyed seeing her grow up.

1. She is taking one long nap a day... about 2 hours.

2. She learned to draw! I wish I had a picture to post, maybe next time. She loves to color, and everytime she sees a pencil and paper, she quickly grabs it to doodle.

3. She loves to look at Papa Tuckers Aquarium... she can sit there forever pointing at the fish.


4. She has taken to wearing a tonka toy tire tread around her neck, so we thought just maybe...

5. ... She was ready for her first necklace! So we went and got her some really cute beads at Wal-Mart. She still prefers the tire tread, maybe the necklace just takes some getting used to.

6. And the biggest thing of all, she learned to watch TV! This is not a good thing. I am not a big fan of TV, but now that she is interested it helps if I have to wash dishes or something... I hope I don't take too much advantage of it. But she loves to sit in her car seat and relax, and get up to sing and dance when a song comes on... too cute!
