2.5 Years Old
- It has been our March Madness over here with all the birthdays. You were able to get dressed up all fancy for Millie's Princess Tea Party, you stayed home for a girls' movie night while Sam had his dodge ball party, you you finished off the leftover cupcakes at Maggie's Cupcake War party. You had to sit through each of them opening up gifts. After each birthday, you would ask me where your presents where. You handled it all really well.
- You are really liking the Seek and Find books. We have a few that are easier so you can find the items on your own. Reading books has not been your go to activity like the other kids, but you are slowly getting there. I like any book with a princess or ballerina in it.
- We set up the trampoline the other day because the weather is warming up. You were so excited to be the first with Sam to try it out. You have loved the warmer weather and has asked to go outside a lot. Often, you will get your shoes on by yourself and just go out and play without even asking. The other day, you and Millie were outside with me such it was so nice. It was 50 degrees and sunny. Both of you changed into swimsuits and asked for the sprinkler under the trampoline. Not quite that warm yet girlies.
- You have really liked playing with your doll, Juney. I will find you with a hair brush, just brushing out her hair. You ask to sleep with her. It is nice because Millie will play dolls with you. Other favorite toys are barbies and the tea set. I love seeing you girls set up a tea party and get all dressed up.
- Getting you dressed has been a challenge lately because you are so opinionated. You love wearing a dress every day, the fancier the better. But it is still cold enough to need pants.I try to get you to wear pants under your dress but your refuse. Sometimes I can trick you and call them tight pants because you love wearing tights to church. Most of the time, you insist on wearing a skirt under your dress. That gets tricky because then you blow through your dresses and skirts sooner. By the end of the week, it is a real struggle getting you dressed because you don't want to wear the remaining pants and shirts. You change five times a day, often pulling out dress up dresses or Millie's dresses. Maggie and Millie just add to the craziness byletting you wear their skirts on the weekend.
