Eva is now Two!

  On Friday, it was officially Eva's Birthday.  Our little Peanut is getting "old".  We celebrated by going out to eat to our local Mexican restaurant.  It was very comfortable and entertaining with ten of us there. On Saturday we had her birthday party.  I had invited family, a few friends, and her therapists.  When the therapists came in the door, she was a bit confused, happy, and overwhelmed.  Needless to say, she is Eva and didn't seem to enjoy all of the company.  Or the cake.  Or the presents.  She was tired and went to sleep.  Because sometimes, it is not about the presents or the cake, the freinds and family that were here, it is about Eva and how she will set the tone for her events.  Thinking back two years ago, when she was just four pounds.  She taught me how to become more delicate when handling special goods.  She also expects me to be very, very patient. Now that my two year old is growing, mentally and pyhsically, she is starting to have that "I don't want that" attitude.  I am hoping that this phase will not last long.

On an exciting note, her walking ability is progressing. She is taking about twelve steps before she falls forward and desides that crawling is still the best option.  She has what I call her "security finger" grasps to anyone who is willing to walk with her anywhere and everywhere.  I feel that she does not have her 100% confidence to walk on her own.  I know for a fact that one day she will obtain and succeed.
