Happy 2nd Birthday Felix!

I really can't believe you're already two years old! We've spent another year so grateful to have you in our lives. You truly are a ray of sunshine (even when you're being a stinker).

This year you learned so much. You now speak in nearly full sentences and we love all the things you have to say. You like to refer to yourself as "me" and it's pretty darn cute. While getting into sticky situations you've been known to say to yourself "Careful, me!" because you're so used to us saying "Careful, Felix!"

You love to eat. Your favorite food is definitely noodles (with olive oil and a little salt). Just this morning you asked for noodles for breakfast! You still have to avoid dairy and soy but you don't seem to mind much and we know you'll eventually grow out of it, we're just not quite sure when that will be.

You love to play. Your favorite toys right now are your dolls (3 of them), your weegos (Legos) and anything electronic. You've mastered unlocking everyone's phones and can navigate to whatever game you want within seconds. You like talking on the phone and often ask to call gma Aka. You and Henry have so much fun together and I know that will only increase as you both get older. You're tough and can nearly hold your own when wrestling your brother.

You're still a huge cuddler and will often ask for cuddles. I enjoy the moments just after you wake up in the morning or after nap because all you want to do is be held or sit on someone's lap. You give tons of kisses and you always make sure everyone gets their share. If you think I'm leaving for work in the morning without kissing dad goodbye you point it out ("Kiss dada, mama?").

Some of your other favorites are Buzz and Woody (from Toy Story), Gabbas (Yo Gabba Gabba) and Elmo. You love books and pay so much attention to details in the stories. Mouse About the House is one of your favorites right now. You love music and you love to dance and we love to dance with you.

I love you more than I could ever put into words, thanks for picking me as your mom. xo
