Happy 2nd Birthday Seri Baby!!!

Seri, today you are TWO years old! For the most part you are very mellow and sweet, but you do have your moments when you're a complete ball of fire. At two years old you love having books read to you, coloring, and play dough. When Daddy gets home from work you get SO excited! As soon as you hear the "click" of the door unlocking you squeal with delight and run to the door yelling "Daddy home, daddy home!!" Lately, you've been a little turkey at bed time. You've become very good at stalling, especially with your daddy (but that's because he's a sucker, heehee). You cry and in the most pathetic sounding voice say "I want numm numms", as if you're starving. But if we start rocking you, you forget about being starving and fall asleep. That's how we know we're getting played.

You also love teasing Samson (but he probably deserves it). You ram him with your baby stroller, randomly throw things at his head, and knock down his towers that he spends to much time building. We call you "The Seri Monster". But you also love giving him hugs and are eager to say "sowwy Feefee" (we'll get to that later). You're not to into sharing. Even if you weren't playing with a toy doesn't mean someone else can play with it, after all "dis mine!" One way I'm able to get you to finish your meal is to take your plate and offer it to Samson, then you're all of a sudden hungry again.

Samson is your idol. You copy everything he does. Literally. Everything. Dance moves, silly sounds, transforming, he does it and you copy it. A new phrase you've learned from him in the last few days is "Poopoo peepee head", followed by giggles. It's awesome (sarcasm). You know, and often hum, the theme songs to Star Wars and Superman. You are a perfect mixture of tom boy and girlie girl. You love playing tea party and taking care of your babies, but you also love playing with Legos, cars, light sabers, and flying like superman.

Seri-isms;
Tee tu - Thank you
Feefee- Samson (We have no idea why you started calling him this)
No! I saaaay FEEFEE!! - This is done in your best Asian accent whenever we try to get you to actually say "Samson". And then, compliments of Saturday Night Live, your Dad tries to get you to say "Heee look-a liiike-a maan". Don't worry, we'll YouTube this for you when you're older.
Two five two - This is how you count
Uhhh....no tee tu - You have such good manners
You mean! - It's hard not to laugh when you glare at us and say this
Weeee - swing
Numm numms - food
Sowwy - sorry
bess u - When ever anybody sneezes or coughs. So sweet.
So far you don't call any animal by its name but instead by the sound they make "mooo, ruff ruff, ee-ee-aww-aww", etc.

As you can see, you're the definition of cuteness and we absolutely adore you. I love smothering you with kisses and gazing into your deep brown eyes. I swear they sparkle. I love staying home with you and Samson. When I hear you two giggling together it melts my heart and is music to my ears. Your father and I love you to the moon and back a million times.....
