Our Busy Toddler

I love going to the "pawk" (park).  When I'm at the park, my favorite thing is the swings, especially when Daddy pushes me "high!" or "fast!"  I say it over and over so he'll push me super high.  Even though Mommy and Daddy ask me if I want to do other things like go down the slide, I would rather just stay on the swing the whole time I'm at the park.

 

I love books.  I really like it when Mommy and Daddy read to me.  I sometimes want to read the same book over and over again.

 

I think it's fun to walk in Daddy's and Mommy's shoes.  I usually put the shoes on the wrong foot but I can walk in them anyway.

 

It's fun to wear Daddy's hat on my head backwards.

 

My favorite new words are "Do it myself!"  I say this constantly...  I started drinking milk out of a cup now.  I'm such a big girl!

 

When I drink out of a cup, I get a milk goatee.  :)  Mommy has started putting my hair in "pig-n-tails" (pigtails) lately.

 

Daddy and Mommy like to take me on food adventures.  We went to Porto's Bakery and got lots of yummy food!

 

 

Speaking of food adventures, Daddy and Mommy want to take me somewhere for vacation soon because they say there is A LOT of good food there.  Check out the video to see where we want to go on vacation:

 

Daddy and Mommy like to go to garage-n-sales (garage sales) on Saturday.  Afterward, we like to go to McDonald's or Chick-fil-A.

 

Another place Daddy and Mommy like to go to is "Soup Plantation."  Daddy and Mommy give me lots of veggies but I would rather eat the mac n cheese and pasta.  Daddy and Mommy let me have a frozen yogurt cone for dessert.  Yum!!!

 

I got to eat popcorn for the first time the other day.  I loved it!

 

I love my stuffed animals.  One time I thought it would be fun to see if they could all fit on Caleb's bouncer seat.

 

I like sitting in Caleb's swing when he's not in it.

 

I can still fit in my old car seat - but it's Caleb's now.

 

I can still fit in the pack-n-play too.  Caleb sleeps in it during the day.

When I wake up in the morning, Mommy says I have crazy hair.  What do you think?

 

 

I love saying "cheese!" when Mommy takes a picture of me.

I get to have play dates with friends sometimes.  This is my friend, Jonathan.

 

 

 

Here are some of the things I've been saying lately:

 

- "Baby Tay-lub" (That's my brother's name)

- "Dada hold" or "Mama hold" (I hold my arms out and say this when I want Daddy or Mommy to pick me up)

- "Ow-oh" (owl) and "Ea-go" (eagle) (I say this to Daddy when I want him to show me videos of animals on YouTube)

- "Hi hun!" (I hear Daddy and Mommy saying this to each other so I like to say it, also)

- "Baby Sine-een" (I say this to Mommy when I want to watch the "Baby Signing Time" DVD)

- "Hot-n-top" (I say this over and over to Daddy and Mommy but they have no idea what I'm saying!)

- "Do it myself" (I say this A LOT because I want to be independant)

- "pig-n-tails" (pigtails)

- "Garage-n-sale" (garage sale)

- "Pop-n-corn" (popcorn)

- "No knock-n-it-down" (I say this when Mommy/Daddy and I are building a tower with blocks and I'm about to knock it down).
