Last month, Lauren turned 2. She opened a couple presents at home on her actual birthday and then we celebrated again on the weekend at Grandma and Grandpa McKee's house.

Some thoughts about Lauren:
Lauren has been a joy to our family over the past 2 years. She is a sweet girl and likes to help. When it is time to clean-up toys, she is usually the first to help. She has also turned into a very independent girl. She likes to do most things by herself. She wants to climb in her carseat and do up her own buckle (which she is not capable of doing yet). She wants to occassionally put on her own clothes and wash her hands by herself. Luckily, she usually gives up on the things she is not capable of within a minute or so and then asks for help. On the other hand, if Tim or I are anywhere near her when it is time to eat, she demands that we feed her. Now don't get me wrong, she is perfectly capable of feeding herself. In fact, she is often less messy then her brothers when she feeds herself. However, if we are near, she pushes her plate and spoon at us until we put the food in her mouth. Lauren loves "Elmo TV" and although she doesn't get to watch it very often, she asks for it ALL the time. She loves reading her Elmo books and knows the names of many of the Sesame Street characters. She likes playing with her baby dolls and feeding them their bottle. Lauren is talking more and more clearly every week and communicates very well with everyone around her. When we read stories and ask her what color something is, she always says, "Green." If you ask her to point to something that is a specific color, she can point to the correct color though. (I just think green is her favorite color.) She likes singing Popcorn Popping, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, The Eensey Weensey Spider and ABC's. Her favorite food is probably gogurt. We love Lauren very much!
