day no. 16,489: ophelia is TWO

Ophelia Belle, you are TWO today! Happy birthday.

You are so much fun. You love to dance and wiggle your shoulders. You love to show off your teeth. You love to open your big eyes as wide as they can go. You like to laugh. You are just a blast.

You are our baby shark. You have all the teeth and you know it... and you show it.

You love your milk and you love your cheese. And you like saying, "cheese," when a camera is pointed in your direction.

You like saying, "Hello!" It's your favorite word. You say, "Hi!" and "Hello!" like you mean it... which you do! 

You also like saying your own name, except you often stop short and get stuck singing the Wizard of Oz, flying monkey chant of, "O-E-O... Whoa-O." It is adorable.

You still walk a bit like a capuchin with your arms bent into your ribs instead of akimbo. You have figured out how to navigate the stairs and are enjoying your new found freedom by messing up all of your mom's bookshelves.

You have more eyeball than you have hair. I'm sure the hair will catch up, but your eyes have a great head start.

You love having your feeties rubbed by mom.

You like to suck on your sheets while you sleep and often wake up a very cheerful, yet very hot mess. You also have recently acquired the joy of jumping on your bed. You look like Family Force 5 in the BZRK video bouncing away. It is very cute.

You are a fan favorite and we love so much. I'm so glad God gave you to us.

Happy 2nd birthday, OE Biscuits!

Love, 
Dad
