And the Winner Is.....

Dustin and Rachel! My brother and sister-in-law come in first by a long haul for getting Allisyn's favorite birthday present! They got her a cash register with a hand held scanner that also doubles as a phone. We haven't even put batteries in it, and she absolutely loves it. Coming in second is the back pack, hat and flashlight my aunt Sandy got her. She likes that she can turn the flashlight on and off herself. She really needs to work on not shinning it in other people's eyes.

She got a lot of nice clothes, but those gifts went straight to mom. She would pull out the paper, see it wasn't a toy and toss it to mom. It was cute.

We also had her 2 year check up and she is doing great. We aren't 100% that they have her height correct, but we haven't checked it out for sure. When we made her mark in the laundry room we got 35 3/4 inches. Then less than a week later, they measured her at 36 1/2 inches. I'm pretty certain she didn't grow 3/4 inch in 5 days. Her daddy came in right when they were measuring her and I was working on getting her to get off her tip toes. I'm not sure if she was all the way down when the nurse made her decision.

We have found out that Allisyn really enjoys playing with play dough! We just introduced her to it the other day. We don't really have a reason for waiting so long to let her play with it other than we never had any. It is fun to play with her. She really likes you to cut out stars. It is so amazing the way their little minds process new information and respond to new experiences.

Well, once again Miss Piper is making it really uncomfortable for me to sit.
