Where is your monthly post? I don't have a ton of cute pictures of you because you were sick, then you were grumpy, then I was grumpy, and now it's 15 days later.
You are still the cutest thing in the world. You are really into learning and have mastered most letter sounds. I have made it trickier by asking you a word, and asking you to give me the first letter sound. This is much trickier! We are working on early reading strategies; specifically concepts of print. Here we are doing 1-1 correspondence with the ABC's. I love that you got tricked with LMNO. I'm glad that I got it on video, because you don't do it anymore.
You are still into all things Rapunzel, though you insist that the movie is now too scary for you. You really like Disney movies, and although you still watch Sesame Street, the love is just not as intense. You are really looking forward to going to Disney World and talk about it often. You will tell anyone that listens that you are going to go to the castle when you are 5 and Juliet is 2. For Sweetest Day Daddy and I gave you your own little "Lady" from Lady and the Tramp. It is one of your newest favorites. You kept saying, "Thank you so much for my Lady!"
You are very interested in Santa. We are trying to explain how you need to be good to get toys. You have been trying to talk through the Santa process. We can sometimes get you to stop whining or complaining when we tell you that Santa is watching. But then you think that he is downstairs getting your presents ready.
You are still not the best sleeper, and Daddy is feeling pretty frustrated that I tried to up your bedtime to 9:00. You are still up at least once every night, and there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about it. You let Daddy put you to sleep every night now, but you still call for Momma in the middle of the night. Probably because you know that Mommy will tell you to come to the white bed.
You love your Sissy. You like to look at her teeth. You have got to the point where you two actually play together. You like to pick her up. Even though it looks super uncomfortable and awkward, Juliet always has a big smile on her face when you pick her up. You like to get her toys. You like to "share" the baby toys, but insist that your toys are all yours. You cry because you think Juliet is going to eat all your toys.
You love to read. You "read" Wheels on the Bus or Babies on the Bus at almost every nap time/bedtime. Lately you are really into Pinkilicious (again), Dr. Pompo's Nose (again), Marley Books, and Clifford Books.
You love school and still really love to get out of the house and go on adventures. You like to tell us about school. You tell us you play with another girl named Juliette as well as other kids, who are still named "Kid". You like it when Mommy packs you a lunch (sunflower butter sandwich, fruit, and cheese) better than the prepared lunch.
You love chicken and fries, cheese, fruit, and candy. You love picking out a "treat" from stores. Your favorites are: M and Ms (mint or coconut flavor--yuck), Peeps, or Twizzlers. You seem to like water best of all right now, with chocolate milk as a close second favorite. You won't drink regular milk at home, but tell me that you drink it at school.
Daddy ans I think you are growing up too fast. We told you so, and you said, "I have to grow up and get married!" We almost died.
Your Grandma and Grandpa came this month and you had fun playing with them for a few days. I asked you what their names were and you said, "Grandma and Grandpa L______". I had no idea that you knew their last names! It always amazes me what you remember and ask about. You are so smart, kind, beautiful, and funny.
We love you so much, Sassy Mae!
