- Carson tries her best to do everything that her brother does. She wants to dribble the basketball, hit a baseball and a golf ball. She isn't quite as natural at it as Reed was, but she is willing to keep trying. After one of Reed's baseball games, we let her go on the field and run the bases with Reed. She thought that was the coolest thing ever.
- She loves to count. She counts two books, two feet, etc. She counts 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. She says eh-ven for 11. So cute!
- What has to be her longest sentence ever, she said "daddy took my water from me". Girlfriend is good with words. : )
- If anyone is missing from her sight, she usually says "where daddy are?", "where mommy are?".
- She is overly confident with her stair climbing and descending skills. So much so that she has started climbing without holding on. Ugh. This makes me less than okay about taking the gates down. : /
- Strawberries = Strawbeddies
- She is constantly falling. Poor thing got a pretty bad boo boo on her knee a few weeks ago and she has continued to fall on it. It might get better one day.
- She really is a good listener. If we ask her to do anything, she usually does it, unless we are telling her to lay down and go to sleep.
- Everything is "by self, mommy, by self".
- She says "get off me" if I am holding her hand while in a parking lot or otherwise doing something she doesn't want me to do.
- She has pretty good manners and usually says thanks, excuse me and bless you appropriately.
- Just the other night she asked me to rub her back while rocking her. Sweet girl.
- Her silly, deep, evil sounding laugh is back. We love it!
- She loves to color but only when Reed is coloring. She went through a phrase where I had to trace her hands every time she sat down to color.
- She is a terrible eater. She literally hardly eats anything besides fruit pouches and fruit and yogurt.
- She can slide with no help, although she seems to think she can do everything that Reed does at the playground. Eek, not good!
- She likes to buckle the top clip of her carseat. "I do it, Mommy, I do it!" If I do it, she gets very angry. She is very close to figuring out how to undo it as well. Dear.
- She loves for me to roll her window down in the car. "Winnow down, Mommy." She giggles pretty much the entire time. Precious.
- She loves her hair in piggy tails and requests them pretty much every day.
I ended up getting a few cute pics, but let's be honest, most of the shoot went like this...............
