My little lady!

Should I feel guilty if...

She VIGORIOSLY wipes off MOST of my kisses?
I am going shopping for Tobasco Sauce tomorrow for biting?
But, besides that...
She is the cutest, sweetest thing in the world right now, but she is a little defiant lately.

Her sweetest side is always saying...
"It's a beautiful day mom"
"This is delicious!"
" I am daddy's pripriss(princess), and mommy's little girah"(girl)

As of yesterday she discovered the escaping the crib thing. So bright and early at 6:30 am this morning we are awoken to " Hi Daddy, I climbed out of my crib!"
Luckily she still buys the " It is still bedtime and you have to go to back to bed in one minute".
She says okay and goes back to sleep until 8:30. Happens EVERYTIME. The funny thing is that our house is as bright as the noon day sun at 6:30 and she still buys it.

I thought she said "why" a lot two months ago. I didn't know that word would only get used more and more and more each day.

When she wants to get out of her car seat and drive while we are waiting for daddy to come back to the car she will say...
A- "I wanna drive"
Me- "No daddy will be right back"
A- "WHy?"
me- "He is pumping the gas, and he is almost done, so no."
A- (tilting her head down to negotiate) "One mo Second?"
me- "no, he is almost done."
A- "last time, last second, last more"
Me- "Look, he is done"
A- " Last time, one minute"
Dad, enter's car.
A-"Daddy, I want to drive"

When we get home he usually lets her sit on his lap and drive to the mailbox and back.
Nice Daddy!


Everyone's kid is cutest in the morning I hear. Oh boy, she is. I could eat her alive in the morning. The other day i walked in her room and her first words were "key's?" I said "the key's?" She then said " I wanna drive."

I am not sure about her obsession with driving.
Every morning we ask her what she dreamt about and without fail it is "Giraffe's" Not sure where she came up with that.

The most classic with her right now is "NO GRANDPA" As harsh and loud as she can get. He can't help but bust up. He says that she has a timer and after one hour of adorable, she starts throwing punches at him, or throwing rocks at him. She sure does love him though.
When he babysits twice a week, the first thing he does is fill her sippy cup up with loads of ice, puts applejuice in it and he holds and kisses on her for all of Dora and Blues Clues! He loves it!!

I think he was a little traumatized that I spanked her bum today. Sorry pops, but I survived it!

SHe is now saying her prayers...
THis is how it goes with lots of undetermined words in the middle..
"heavenly Father, keep mom safe, grama kennedy, fajldf;ajajs asldkjoiwe jowier w amen." It is really cute!

She is still the huggiest, kissiest girl in the world.

Everynight before bed, she MUST look out her window and yell "Goodnight Kaitlyn, goodnight Rodney, goodnight kaitlyn, goodnight Christopher, goodnight ROdney, goodnight Ann, goodnight Christopher, goodnight Kaitlyn"
They are our nighbors, and kaitlyn is her best friend!

Well, most of you probably didn't read all of this, but I have been meaning to write this down, so for journaling purposes I had to record it all.

She is adorable!! I did read a book once about "two year olds," and it said "we will focus most of this book on two-and-a-half year olds since most parents and caretakers say that is the time they need the most help." So true in our case!!!

She is such a doll. I just love her. I can't beleive that she will go back to bed. You are so lucky I have been up at 6:30 this whole week I tried the it's not time thing but James just yells even louder. Then poof before I know it Johnny and geaorge are up and their is no getting out of waking up and starting the day. I have to say by 9:30 I feel like it should be 12:00pm. So enjoy that extra sleep.
