THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...

Babies...she loves them! She constantly makes the crying sound for them, always has at least one in her hands, if not two, and loves to undress them! She likes to read to them in her rocking chair, sleep with them, feed them, change (well, take off) their diapers, and rocks them whenever she's holding them! They go everywhere with her-we have them in strollers, the car, upstairs, downstairs, outside, in bed, and in the bath! She also loves Ariel, the princess mermaid. She calls her "merma" and loves to play with her just like a baby. She doesnt care for any of the other princess dolls, just this one! (funny what having an older sister will do to a 17 month old!)

look closely, there are 2 babies in hand!

Lion, Ariel, baby, and diddy=a great night sleep!

Talking...all the time! And just today on the way home from bible study, she was singing along to Jesus Loves Me on her bible songs CD...it was precious!! She currently says, "help me, mama, daddy, a-ee (Hailee), baby, bible, ears, nose, eyes, ditty (kitty), ruff ruff (dog), green, pink, purple, eat, all done, more, do da (dora), boo, ding dong, ashes (from the ashes, ashes we all fall down song), book, elmo, Jesus, amen, ball, down, up, bye bye, bath, toes, hair, Mom-Mom, Segee, Ce-Ce, Henry, Papoo, Mimi (not often, but it's come out!), bow, socks, shoes, diddy (her pink bear blanket!), and a few more I'm sure but cant recall them right now.

reading a book to Ariel


Music...she loves to dance and clap her hands! We listen to music in her room, she sings along with Hailee, loves to dance with Hailee at night before bedtime while listening to music, and has Brian or myself sing her about 5 songs before putting her in her crib at night. We dont even finish the end of one song and she's saying, "more, more." She plays instruments and loves to bang on a drum. Her favorite songs are Jesus Loves me, Daddy's Song, If you're Happy and you Know it, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Amazing Grace, and Itsy Bitsy Spider.

Dressing up, playing outside, playing hide and seek in daddy's closet, chasing Hailee, bath time, stickers, reading, Lexi, babies, babies, and more babies...
