Ok so my midwife noticed that the baby had dropped and I have been have a ton of Braxton Hicks, so I asked her to check me and I am 2cm dilated and 75% effaced. I am 36 weeks and my DD came at 36 1/2 weeks.
My sister lives out of town and I would really like her to be here when I do go into labor. My question is, Is it too early to tell her to come? She can get off work for about a week. Or is there really no way to tell? What would you do?

Dilation and effacement mean nothing until you are in labor. Some women have been known to walk around at 4 cm for weeks.
I would wait. Just because you had your first that early does not mean this one will do the same.

I would wait. My DD came at 37w, and two days before I was "high and closed". I walked around at 3cm for 2w with DS (my second born) who came at 39w. Is she in driving distance?
