Gracyn - 2 1/2

~She has only a few pronouns she uses....she, he and they. She might bring me her baby doll and tell me, "She want she clothes on" or "They want they lunch." Recently at the doctor, the nurse was getting ready to strep-test Gracyn and she latched herself securely to my person, buried her head in my shoulder and said, "Don't let she do dat to me!".

~Hand Sanitizer continues to be one of her all time favorite things. She calls it Han-i-tizer. She has her own and she knows to use just a "widdle-bit", but she also sneaks into Addison's backpack whenever she can and bathes in it.

~She is a sweet, sweet girl. She doesn't want anyone sad or crying. She wrapped her arms around me unexpectedly a few days ago, hugged me tight and said, "You a gooooood mama!".

~She can't get enough of her best friend Ellie-Bellie.

~At the park a few days ago, an older (8-year-old) boy was telling her she was a baby. I seriously thought she was going to TAKE HIM DOWN! The girl was MAD!!!

~She wants her bedroom door left open at night, so the hall light shines in. If I accidentally close the door she tells me, "Don't turn the dark on!".

~Nap time is no more. I lay her down, while Reagan is at school. She plays for about 30 minutes and makes all kinds of noise in there, but she won't go to sleep. Often she ends up falling asleep in the car at 3:30, on the way home from Reagan's school, which just messes up bedtime.

~If you ask her how much something costs, she will tell you, "Two and-o-clock dollars."

~She wants to be a Chedder-Cheese Sunchip for Halloween.

~She tells the girls each day who gets to "Be my buddy!". They both want this coveted position as her buddy for the day, and unfortunantly she has learned to use this to get things she wants from them.

~Love, love her. I can't believe we are on the backside of 2. She really isn't a baby anymore. So sad to not have a baby, but so much fun to have another girl in my crew to hang out with!!!
