Happy Birthday Bug!

Our little Bug turned 2 yesterday.  I know I'm not the first mom to say how fast these past 2 years have gone by.  

Zach's parents and both sisters were in town for the occasion (and Easter too, of course).  We went to the early service at church and then over to my parent's house for Easter lunch.  I think Tatum thoroughly enjoyed all the attention, egg hunts, presents, balloons, candy, brownies, and yummy food.

I love this little girl more than life itself.  She constantly amazes us with her wit, humor, and intelligence.  We wonder all the time where she learns this stuff! 

Some of Tatum's favorite things to do are:

Read books about animals, shapes, and everyday things

Jump on her trampoline

Be outside with Daddy

"Drive" Daddy's new car

Color with markers

Play in her sandbox

Go to music class

Play with her friends at the park

Love on her doggies and kitties

Go to Gramma & Papa's house

Watch Elmo & Little Bear

Put color tabs in her tubby each night

"Helping" Mommy & Daddy

Some of her latest "tricks":

Counting to 14

Singing her ABCs, Twinkle Twinkle "Winkle Winkle" Little Star, The Itsy Bitsy Spider, Row Row Row Your Boat

Spelling her name: T A T U M n o p

Saying her whole name: "Teytum June Zeddar!"

Following alone with the hand motions in music class

She has a beautiful spirit that brightens every day.  Her smile and laugh are contagious.  

She is affectionate and sweet.  Her spontanious hugs and kisses are to die for.

Her energy is nonstop and she's never afraid to get dirty.  Very dirty.

She can get whatever she wants with those eyes.  Especially with "pretty eyes" when she bats her eyelashes.

She has the cutest run ever.  Those little hips shake back and forth and she just goes full out.  Just thinking about it makes me smile :)

Happy Second Birthday Little Girl.  We love you so much!
