Julia 3 years old

So, my daughter is 3 years old.  It's been awhile since I've written up a post about her. 

Let's see...

- She LOVES books!  She would be content to just sit and listen to me read books to her for hours.  And each day it's a different book that she wants me to read over. and over. and over.  :)

- Her favorite movie at the moment is "Sound of Music."

- She loves to sing and actually carries a tune quite well.

- She is a chatterbox!  She will talk your ear off during a meal and sometimes has to be reminded to take bites.

- She likes going places.  She'll often ask, "Are we going somewhere today?"

- She is wearing mostly 3T clothes.  She is very tall but thin so many pants fit her loosely.  I still have yet to find a pair of jeans that don't fall off of her...

- She has a pair of brown boots that she loves and wants to wear all day.

- She doesn't miss a thing!  Even when Ethan and I think we are talking quietly, she'll repeat what we say...

- She is a girly girl and loves wearing dresses, tights, bows in her hair, etc. 

- She isn't very affectionate, but lately she's become more so and I'm thankful for the snuggles and kisses she is willing to give...

- She is getting so much more friendly.  She will say "hi" to people and strike up conversations.  It's neat to see that side of her come out because she used to be more stand-offish.

- Her favorite things to do at the park are climb and go on the swings.

Here are some pictures of Julia over the past year:

Julia loves her daddy!

 

Nutella always proves to be messy...  :)

 

Her first popsicle

She loves corn on the cob!

 

Julia and I went on a date one Saturday which included sharing a donut.  :)

 

So sad when she falls asleep in her carseat like this.  How could that possibly be comfortable?!

 

Before I got too far in my pregnancy, I was trying to do creative things like this with her.  She really liked it.  Hopefully I can do more educational stuff like this after things settle down with the new baby.  She thrives on learning.

 

Her 3rd birthday party was a Minnie Mouse theme.  I bought her these Minnie Mouse ears and used this picture for her birthday card invitation.  I love her smile.  She looks so grown up...

She loves bandaids.

 

This was something I made and posted on Facebook for Julia's 3rd birthday.  I can't believe how fast these past 3 years have gone by.  I still remember the day she was born as if it was just yesterday.
