Dear Zoe,
Well, we now call you "trouble with a little tiny tee". This is because you AREN'T trouble at all. Your idea of trouble is to eat dog food. And only 3 times. You've grabbed a couple of pieces, tried them, then ran to me to give them to me. So, you don't even hide it. We have these two huge potted plants with rocks on the top and you'll grab a couple of the rocks, then run to me to give them to me. That's it. That's the extent of your trouble. If you play in a drawer, you'll put the stuff back (where it goes too!). You won't dive into your toy baskets to see how far the stuff will spread, you'll intently grab what you want to play with, and then play with it. In honour of your cousin, Tadhg, we also call you Zoe Danger Jacobsen. Because, again, you AREN'T dangerous. You're very cautious with everything you do, and very safe.
You're into mimicing, and it makes you look like a little adult. You will grab a napkin after dinner and wipe your face and hands. You'll sneeze and look for a flannel blanket to blow/rub your nose. You love putting your own shoes on (and can do it with ease now!) and you love trying on everyone else's shoes. Especially my heels.

You're also into pretending. Pretending to be Pasha is hilarious. You'll crawl under the table panting like she would. And, Pasha sneezed once, so now when ever you pretend to be a dog, you'll pretend sneeze. You'll pretend to eat, and this is especially funny when you pretend to eat at the dinner table with your real food in front of you! You'll grab the imaginary food from your hand, put in in your mouth and then chew away. And, you like to pretend to drive too. You love sitting in the front seat of (any) the car and push all the buttons and say vroooooom.
You don't have the most words yet, but you have a sign or a sound for everything.
"Giraffe" is licking your lips
"Penguin" is rocking back and forth while clicking your tongue
"Dog" is panting
"Drink" is smacking your lips
"Car" is vroooooooom
"More" is putting fingers together (like, GIVE ME MORE DUDE)
"All done" is jazz hands (and you made that up yourself)
"Feed me" is you'll stick your finger on your tongue
You'll pinch your nose for "skunk"
And, you can do a cow, elephant, pig, and you always kiss a kitty picture if you see one.
You love drawing with crayons on paper, the sidewalk chalk, or the bathtime crayons. You have a lot of control, so I know you'll be artistic like your daddy. You even wrote "Zoe" one time. No kidding.
You're still a great sleeper and eater, I don't know if I'll ever have to mention it again because with you, it's just a given. You have a 2 hour nap each afternoon, and then sleep from 7pm until 7am. No dramas.
We love you little lady,
Big hugs,
Mommy and Daddy
