It's hard to believe Brielle is already two, but at the same time, she's talking so well and doing so much, that she seems like a big kid already too! We celebrated Brielle's 2nd birthday on Christmas Day evening, after all of the regular Christmas festivities had calmed down.

| Getting a little help with her candles |
We have really enjoyed this second year with Brielle Joy. She learned to talk like a champ, sing, run (she's fast too), and dance. It's been fun to see Josh and Brielle interacting more and more. They now have conversations together and play pretend (and of course, lots of disagreements and fights too). Brielle is definitely learning to hold her own though, and we are seeing that we have to be careful to not assume big brother Josh is at fault - because sometimes she's the instigator. (The other day I found her alone in front of the mirror, shaking her finger and repeating, "No, it's mine! No, it's mine!"...I guess she was just practicing or something!)
Some of Brielle's favorite things to do are to swing, play outside, push her shopping cart around the house, make us "coffee" and other assorted foods, read books, wear her squeaky shoes, and sing the ABC's. She has the sweetest little voice and can say anything she wants to. She is friendly and laid-back, but has always had a little spunk of her own. We are now seeing her "two-ness" come out and are having to spend more time training and correcting, but overall she has been such a blessing to our family and brings us many, many, many smiles and laughs every day. We look forward to what Year 3 will hold!
