Jocelynn turned 2 on Sunday, Oct 4th. We went to my parent's house for conference and had cake. She's having a small party on SAturday with some friends and I'll post those later.
Here's some of Jocelynn's favorites the past year. We've had a great year. One year to two years old has been the best for me. Jocelynn was a fussy baby and I could never brag about what a good baby she was so I claim bragging rights now :) She has been a wonderful toddler, at times a headache but usually only when she is off schedule (my fault not hers).
Everyday we are busy doing so much. We go to the gym, park, Disneyland, store, play dates, library, walks outside or to grandma Kirk's or Grandma Lanes.
Favorites
Place to go: Disneyland
Eat: she is a good eater, will eat really anything. (loves chicken and mac n cheese)
Sings: ABCs, Itsy, Bitsy, Twinkle, New favorite is Barney song!
Talks: Says anything. Started talking in sentences at a year and a half
Toy: Little people or puzzles
Sleep : Bedtime 8pm wakes up at 730pm
Naptime: 12pm-2pm
Movie : Clifford or Care Bears but loves Signing Time still
At a year and a half Jocelynn could recognize the letters in the alphabet and say their name, she knew her colors, shapes, and numbers. Although she was a fussy baby she is really smart. Someone told me at one time, when she was a baby that fussy babies usually mean smart ones because their brain is super sensitive. At the time, I was like I don't care but now I really think it's true. We are now working on the months of the year. I of course don't push her but if she wants to learn more why not? So if you have a fussy baby, hang in there, the baby is probably a smart one :)
My sister Jamie came down last weekend and couldn't be here for her birthday so got her this before she left. Jocelynn loves it, especially the heels! Thanks Jame!
James would not be happy with this last shot but she looks too cute. He doesn't like the heels because he thinks it'll mess up her feet :) Such a cute protective Dad. Jocelynn started going potty in the toilet 3 weeks ago. It was pretty easy. She will not go poop though, although the past week she has gone 3 times on the toilet. I'm sure as time goes on she'll be more willing too. We have her in panties at home and she looks super cute in them. We look forward to this next year with our little girl!

We had a couple "unisex" outfits from when riley was born (we didn't know if she was a boy or girl either the whole time) so we had some green little outfits which i pulled out. When i packed my overnight bag for the hospital i put in some of the green outfits and a couple girl ones too. People were super nice and brought us a few things to get started, and josh and i did a little shopping after he was born and got a couple other outfits to get us by. i'm having a baby shower next week and hope to get boy clothes :)
OK~ She needs to come & have a chat with Makoa 'cause he refuses to go potty! Gurrrrr
