Interview With Emily - 2 Years Old

I found this cute idea on pinterest where you interview your kids every year on their birthday to see how their answers change.  I missed Em's birthday this year, but thought it wasn't too long ago, so what the heck, I'll just start now.  Going forward, I'll aim to interview her on her b-day each year (or close to).

So here goes.  I came up with 20 questions to ask her each year.  Being that she's only 2 this year, I figured I'd ask some questions that she wouldn't know how to answer.  But I wanted them to be the same 20 each year, so I went with it.

After asking her the questions, I realized she had more trouble with some of them than I thought.  So I wrote her answer first, followed by the answer Shawn and I think it really is - if we thought something different. 

1.  What is your favorite color? Purple

2.  What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch? a sandwich (we'd say a hot dog and mac and cheese)

3.  Who is your best friend? Morgan - her friend at school

4.  What is your favorite toy? balls from her ball pit  (we'd say her dollhouse or her rollercoaser - although her easel is quickly becoming a favorite too)

5.  What is your favorite TV show? Caillou - this was the easiest question to get an answer for

6.  What is your favorite drink? Milk

7.  What is your favorite movie? Beauty and the Beast

8. What is your favorite thing to eat for breakfast? Sausage - when I ask her in the car each morning, what she hopes they have for breakfast at school, she always replies back sausage.

9. What is your favorite book? Texas Tech book (She really loves all books and just gets on a kick of which book she likes best that week.)

10. What do you like to take to bed with you at night? toys (This list grows every night.  Right now she takes her 2 blankys, baby, ellie, bear and a book to bed)

11. What is your favorite thing to eat for dinner? Chicken Nuggets and Corn

12. What is your favorite snack? goldfish (we'd say any kind of cheese or cheese cracker - ie. cheeze its, etc).

13. What is your favorite holiday? Seeing Santa - so Christmas based on this answer

14. What is your favorite song? Old McDonald

15. What is your favorite outfit? The one she was wearing when we asked her (we'd say her red footed gingerbread jammies - she asks for them almost every night - they were a hand me down from Lauren)

16.  What is your favorite animal? Baby Lion - I'm pretty sure we got this answer because we've been watching a lot of The Lion King lately.

17.  What do you want to be when you grow up? I asked this question several times, but I think she's a little too young to understand this one just yet.  We'll skip this question until next year.

18.  What is your favorite game?  I think this was another one that she didn't quite understand.  So we'll skip this one as well until next year.

19.  What is your favorite thing to do outside? Swing

20.  What is your favorite thing about school? Playing with her friends
