Kenna's 2 Year Stats & Bella's Dance Christmas Party

I took Kenna to the doctor today for her 2 year check-up. She weighs 26 lbs and is 34 inches tall. That puts her at 42% for weight and 66% for height. (so she is tall and skinny) Her BMI is 38% which is great. Dr. Chen asked if Kenna eats vegetables, and she said "no vegables". (Maybe Aunt Ali can work on her.) All in all, she is a very healthy little 2 year old who needs to eat her peas.

A few fun facts about Kenna:

*She is 95% pottey trained and will wear only Elmo panties.

*She is learning to put on her own shirt and can already put her pants and socks on by herself.

*She communicates very well with us in 2 and 3 word sentences. I can understand her 99% of the time.

*When she doesn't get her way, she says "Peas Mommy" (please mommy). When she still doesn't get her way, she throws herself on the floor in typical 2 year old fashion.

*She is stubborn as they come....not sure where she gets that.

*She will attend preschool 2 days a week in 8 months, 3 weeks, and 4 days. (but I'm not counting)

This picture makes me think of some type of modern art. Bella dressed her, held this "artwork" she made over Kenna's head, and said "Take our picture, mommy".





Bella's Dance Christmas Party


Before we left the house. Ms. Margo said they could wear something 'festive'. Bella went all out with the sparkly tights and leotard. See how happy she is. She LOVES dance and Ms. Margo.


And here is Bella with Ms. Margo. She is the best. She announced tonight that the girls voted on three songs to use for the recital, and they decided on "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". It should be cute!



This is Bella's class. The little girl in the purple is named Bella too.

Their class had a book exchange. We got Fancy Nancy.

And here is a little conversation we had while I was putting her hair up for class tonight:

Bella: "Mommy, I made you something at school."

Me: "You did? What is it?"

Bella: "I can't tell you. But it has wings and glitter and we made it out of dough."

Me: "I can't wait to see it."

Bella: "And you put it on the tree. But, I can't tell you what it is."
