You are walking like crazy (YAY!!). You don't like to hold our hand anymore while you're walking because you like to do it on your own. The only time you get scared is when you have to go over the step that takes you to the garage, it's a little awkward and you just don't quite have the hang of it yet. You still fall over when you lose your balance but you just get right back up.
You are climbing on lots of things now too. This scares me a little. You can get up on the couch by yourself and sit like a big girl with Daddy and I. You also like to climb Aunt Jenn and Uncle TJ's steps. On Christmas, we caught you on step # 5. You lost your balance and we let you kind of tumble down a few of them so that you might get a little freaked out. Well, it worked until tonight when you and I went back over there and you saw like 10 other kids flying up and down them. You decided that you wanted to do it too. You did really good but it still scared me.
You LOVE food. I don't know where you get that from? (Wink, wink) You'll try anything that Daddy or I are eating.
You LOVE to dance. You also like to lip sync to songs. Aunt Lindy got you the Barenaked Ladies "Snacktime" cd for Christmas and your favorite song is 7-8-9. You sing "8-9". Tonight at Aunt Jenn and Uncle TJ's house, you had fun dancing to TJ and his friends play their guitars (Mommy did too!).
You love to carry around your Barbie cell phone and purse that you got for Christmas. We do have a problem with the phone though. For a LONG time, you called phones by their name. Well, for some reason, now you call them "foks". When you say it, sometimes it sounds like a bad word. Mommy, Daddy and Gramma have all tried millions of times to get you to say phoNe but you won't listen to us.
You call Auntie Bri "BEE". Gramma has been here visiting since the day after Christmas and you won't even attempt to say "Gramma". We're still working on that one. We also try to get you to say GGMa and GGPa but that hasn't caught on very well either. You say "GG Mama" and point to me or just "GG". ;o)
Your favorite word is "bye". For some reason, you've been adding an "a" on the end of a lot of your words lately, so now you say "bye-a".
Grammie and Grampie bought us a webcam for Christmas, ours is all hooked up and ready to go, so we should be able to use it soon. I don't know how well you're going to sit still for it, but it will be fun to try!! Who knows, you might like watching the screen.
You still love Abby Cadabby but now you really like Minnie Mouse and Elmo ("Mo") too.
You like to try to put your clothes and shoes on yourself... you're doing pretty well with the shoes but we're still working on the clothes. You try to put your pants on your arms and your shirts on your feet. ;o)
You are quite the sleeper. Several times in the last two weeks, you've slept in past 10am. Ahhh...
Brynn, your Daddy and I are having SO MUCH fun spending time with you, you are the best little girl ever. We love you!!
Little Shikepoke! Can't wait to see you!
