Some random thoughts

When we brought Taylor home, I was always worried about milestones that I am afraid I missed some of the things that I should have enjoyed when she was a baby. While I am sure milestones are important, I shouldn't have been so worried about them.

Now that she is three, I don't concentrate on those milestones anymore and just enjoy her being herself.

She comes up with the best sayings and cracks me up all the time. Here are a few things she that has come up the past few weeks or has done:

She told me yesterday as we were pulling out of the driveway that she was giving me a safety violation because I didn't have my seatbelt on. (She gets this from Disney's Lou and Louise safety patrol)

She doesn't like to watch anything she perceives as sad - She cried when Cinderella got her dressed ripped to shreds by the mean step sisters and we had to turn it off because she was crying so hard she was sobbing. In between her sobs she told me she didn't want a mean step mother.

If she thinks you are eating something like chocolate, she wants to smell my breathe. Nothing gets by this child.

She can count to 25

She knows a ton of songs and loves to sing them out loud

When she dances and sings...and the end of her song she drops to one knee and bows. Of course I clap and tell her how wonderful that was.

She loves kisses and hugs and loves to whisper secrets in your ear.

She is getting quite sassy and loves to put her hand on her hip when she is disagreeing with me and answers with a big But MOM.....

Out of the blue she will tell me...I love you Mom...when that happens that is the best feeling.

She has best friends at school and always tells me who was being bad at school.. of course when I ask her if she is ever bad she always answers no

When she is in trouble, she tells me I'm not your best friend no more.

Her L's are prounouced with a Y - so it is funny to hear her talk. She was at my dad's house and his dog licked her grandma's leg and she said...Grandad - Sammy yicked grandma in the yeg

She loves Hannah Montana - I think it is the music that she loves

She loves to cook with me and we always bake a cake for daddy when he has gone on a trip

She loves to pick out her own clothes to wear and she normally picks out clothes that match and she will dress herself.

There are probably 100 other things I could list, but these are the ones that stick out the most.

Right now she is sleeping in my bed and I love snuggling with her at night. She talks in her sleep and right about the time she is drifting off to sleep, she sucks her bottom lip. She has always done that.
