Hasta Leugo!

Not that anyone cares or will even miss me but I will no longer be posting on here. That is having to pertain to my children. I have decided to start a private blog for Brylee and as I have other kids. I actually tried to start a journal but I write to stinkin slow and I can type like a mad woman! I wanted something special for them to be able to read some day when they grow up and I feel like when it's private, I don't have to be perfect in my writing since they will be the only ones reading some day. So unless I have some super yummy recipe or have some crazy urge to get on here and blog about something, you will not see me posting! Hey, not too much different from before! Adios!

Much Needed Milestones Update

Brylee's Milestones at 27 months

1. You are still obsessed with Fresh Beat Band, Yo Gabba Gabba, and Disney movies. You have recently discovered Word World and Super Why on PBS though. This makes me very happy because they are slightly more educational than the others!

2. You love learning and are so good about sitting and listening as I read to you. You are always so proud to show what you know. I call you my "little nerd" because you are counting all the time (which by the way, you can count to 13 now) and guess what! You can now identify your numbers 1-10. You also love spouting off your colors and shapes anywhere! You have those down pat. You can also identify letters A, B, K, S, W.

3. When someone comes up to talk to you that you don't know well, you almost always stick out your foot to show off your shoes or painted toenails. Guess it's just some shy thing you do so that you don't have to look at them and say "Hey!"

3. I love your girly-ness! You love getting your fingernails and toenails painted and you love wearing heals. A couple weeks ago, you walked in Kroger with one Snow White heal and one Cinderella heal on. And then you insisted on wearing them to story time one day too. You love wearing your jewelry and checking out Mommy's earrings. I'm pretty sure you'll be wanting to get your ears pierced before we know it! Your girly-ness sure doesn't stop you one bit from playing in the dirt though.

4. You LOVE Nutella.

5. You are always so eager to help. The other day you quickly picked up the hamper to take it back to Mommy and Daddy's room without me having to even ask! You also help Mommy put clothes in the dryer and you love cleaning the lent out! That's the very first thing you do when helping do laundry!

6. You have such a caring heart. If you sense something is wrong with anyone you always say.."Okay?" You can't stand to see people cry and you automatically have to give them a kiss.

7. I love when I intentionally make a sad face and every time you say "Kiss" and grab my face and kiss me. Mommy has found the secret to getting a kiss if you don't want to give one which usually isn't the case. I hardly ever have to beg for a hug or kiss anymore from you! You are so loving!

8. Your answer for "Yes" is "Do-dis." Brylee, do you want ice-cream? "Do-dis!" Not sure where you got that but that is your "yes." and it's so darn cute!

9. You have the sweetest most unique personality. You are so bubbly and crazy and I love how you are always making people laugh! You are so funny!

10. You call me and Daddy by our first names sometimes. That's funny too! You also know the first names of both sets of grandparents. You're a mess!

11. When you bounce, whether it be on the trampoline, the bed, wherever, you always say, "Snow White! Snow White! Snow White!" Don't know why you say that but it's so random and cute!

12. I love it when you swing your arms and strut. You immediately stop when you know someone is looking.

13. You have words that you add unnecessary consonants to. For instance, bib you call a "blib".

14. A couple weeks ago you got off the passy completely thanks to a nice ulcer or bite you got on the tip of your tongue! That was a miserable week for the both of us but all well worth it in the end!

15. You think that a sandwich is called lunch. Never once have I heard you say the word "sandwich." If I fix you a sandwich for dinner, you call it lunch.

16. You are a "chip lover" just like Mommy!

17. You love going to bible class and Thursday school.

18. I realized how big you were the other day when you drank from a cup with no top and didn't spill it!

19. Every time I try to get you to guess something....For instance, "Hey Brylee, guess where we're going tonight?" you say "Secret please" and you want me to whisper it in your ear. It's so cute and it makes me giggle every time!

20. You are finally starting to use a blanket!

21. The past month or so, all you've eaten for breakfast is strawberry oatmeal. I think you would eat it for every meal if I let you. I'll ask you what you want to eat and you say "oatmeal!"
