I'm 2 1/2 now!!!

Greetings!  Not too many pictures to share, but I keep getting older and wiser.  Brennan and I have settled into our new daycare.  I've already pretty much taken over my group and become the official ringleader.  I tell my teacher who I like, what I like, and who I will or will not sit by.  I think I'm the boss and I sometimes need to be reminded that I'm not.  Mom and Dad have learned that it's generally a good idea to give me two choices - not none, not seven - just two.  I wear undies every day now.  I still have some accidents (just to make sure everybody knows that I am determined to march to the beat of my own drum), but I'm doing pretty well with the potty.  I am very polite and I speak in clear complete sentences.  I still whine sometimes for what I want, but unfortunately that does not work very well.  When I'm speaking, I expect an answer every time (even just an "I heard you").  Otherwise, I will repeat myself over and over again.  I have a pretty unbelievable memory.  Mommy says I get it from Daddy, not her.  I can hear something once and I will be able to pull it out later.  I'm still being a very good big sister.  Sometimes I get jealous and want my own sacred Mommy time, but for the most part I try to be helpful.  Brennan gets more excited to see me than anyone else, so I have to watch out for him. 
 Brennan's first try at eating rice cereal.
 His tongue was working against him a bit, but he did a pretty good job.  He especially likes the cereal mixed with bananas.
 Funny, the old pictures of me after bathtime looked a lot like this.
 Hooray for me!!!  Grandma C. sent me a new backpack and coins for my piggybank!
 Brennan is becoming a very big boy.  He's quite strong now.
 B Man and I like to get into bed with Mommy and Daddy on the weekends.  They try to sleep, but B and I love to watch shows.
 Labor Day at the lake with my cousins.
 Liv took a break from swimming to play with B.
 Loving the pontoon.
 I'm not sure that B loved his life jacket.  Is that supposed to save him or smother him?  Well, either way, he managed to fall asleep for the whole ride.
 Mommy tried to find the smallest bathing suit she could, but B's tush is just too little.
 B's first time in the lake.
 Yay, Brennan!
 Not a great picture, but Daddy was excited to see B Man's interest in my tennis racquet.  B also really enjoys watching golf and football on TV with Dad.
Go Blue.
