A Precious Toddler You Are.

This is the outfit her Aunt Chris and Uncle Phil got her! (Nana's brother and sister) It is so cute! When I ask you to vacuum you run right over to get your vacuum and clean away. Notice, there is a mirror in front of you and you must look at yourself while at work. My little lady.



Now you are really pleased with yourself. Look at that face. Confident?


You have been an absolute joy the past couple of months. Now you have always been fun, but as you get older and I think I never want you to change, you get even cuter. When your dad and I are in the grocery or target you will go with one of us and when you see the other in an isle you scream, "Daddy!!" or "Mommy!!" It is as if you have not seen us the whole day. Your excitement makes our lives very bright. You Love you some Barney. I always laugh thinking not in a million years would I have sang the darn "I love you" song all day long and hug and kiss my baby, but I and your dad do on the regular.

Currently, you and I are sick! You have your first ear infection, (a double) and are up all night. It must be very painful.

You think everything is the color blue. You look at pictures and say everyone's name. You have not been in Indy in a month, but you can remember everyone from home. You say Pop and Nana's name to all their pictures. You say Marm and take her picture with you places.

I might as well write this down, because I can't imagine this lasting that long but your nap and sleep routine are perfection. When you drink your bottle of milk you say Night Night and you hop down from your chair, grab a passy from the bin and run to your crib. You love to go to sleep. When you wake up I have to watch you through the monitor, because you play and talk and never mind staying in your crib. I mean I couldn't get any luckier.

Sledding!




What a blast! We had so much fun sledding with you the past couple of weekends. Your dad went all over Chicago looking for a sled, because in a big city like this nothing can be found! Snow is all around. Your dad took you to the hill in front of our building, and let you go. I couldn't look. You smiled the whole way down! I took video, but I can't upload on this thing and need assistance of the tech savy Whitney. In the video, you are laughing and waving to the camera. We played today in the snow and had quite a blast. Your cheeks were a little too red, because it was 10 degrees so we came in after awhile.
