Daphné is 2!

Our sweet little bugga boo is two!
January 9, 2017

Still soaking it in how old she is.

Champagne glass cheers with Tonton.

Gifts from Tonton are always fun.

It's one of those things you turn over to make a cow "moo-ing" noise.  HA!

Picking her favorite delicacy from the bakery choices.

I'm pretty sure chocolate won.

She loves her Mamie!

I don't think I had it this good when I turned 2.  

Do you like the mandarine thrown in for a well-balanced dessert?

Yep.  Chocolate won.

Yum.

Present from Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Tim.

Stickers!

Card from Kikik and Robi.

Reading the card.

And Papi bought a bubble gun!

Tonton Seb captured a lot of these moments with his camera.

Light flooding in.

Such wonder!

She is truly a ray of sunshine!

Popping the bubbles with a dust pan broom.

Way more efficient.

And here is the traditional picture by her measuring stick.  She is 86 cm tall (2'10") at 2 years-old.

You can see the comparison from age 1 in 2016 to age 2 in 2017.  At age 1, she was 70 cm tall (2'3").  She grew 7 inches.  Can you imagine if we still grew at this rate?!  Phew.  Good thing we stop after a while.  HAHA!

Daphné, your name means "laurel" in Greek.  Laurels were used for the crowns given to the winners of the Greek olympic games.  So, you are not only our joy, but also our crown, like it says in this verse in the Bible : 

"Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved." -Philippians 4:1

We love you!!!

Love Maman and Papa
