Twelve Things I Love About You on 12/12/12:
1. "Carry You" When you want to be held or carried you ask, "Carry you." You rarely want to walk on your own when we are out running errands. Normally I carry you and Sam walks. I've heard you telling your babies carry you.
2. You new found love of jumping. Lately you have been jumping and jumping and jumping. I don't know how it started but you love to hold on to something and just jump. Both your feet leave the ground so it really is a true jump. The bad part is that you don't always jump in safe places. You like to jump on the couch and on my legs. (I have to remember this when I find unexplainable bruises on my legs.)
3. Elmo. You have developed a deep love of Elmo. (Right as the puppeteer is in all kinds of trouble.) I think it all started when you watched Sesame Street for two straight days when you had croup around Halloween. You now carry around Elmo and sit on the couch and request to watch Elmo.
4. Color You. You have started to love to color. You also will request to color by saying something that sounds like color you. We have been tracing your hand so you like to try to trace your hand on your own. The other day this resulted in pen marks all over your arm.
5. Your love of books. You love to look through books and to "read". Sam likes to look at books too but not as much as you. You can spend almost 30 minutes looking through books. Your favorites are: Carl, If you Give a Pig a Party ("pig party"), the free Clifford books from Chick-fil-a, and any of the baby hide and seek books. We routinely make it through a whole book before bed too. You and Sam love the book You Can Do It Sam!
6. Your "mommy" skills. Lately you have really been interested in your babies, and Elmo. You try to feed them breakfast, your give them milk, you push them in the stroller, you give them kisses and you talk to them. Too cute.
7. Your vocabulary. You really didn't start talking until 2 months ago. Then one day the words starting coming. You don't have nearly as many words as Sam but you're getting there.
8. Cleaning. Aside from a day of rebellion, you are an amazing cleaner. You usually happily pick up whatever you were playing with and put it back in the correct spot. On occasion you aren't ready to be done playing with something and then you throw a little fit before you help clean. Your brother even has found a way to not pick up, he just waits for you to do it. You also like to clean off the table with a wipe and also clean off your face.
9. You love of Pinterest. You LOVE to sit in my lap and look at all the pictures on Pinterest on my Kindle. You also like to look at any of the pictures on Facebook. You like to point out the babies and any other words that you know.
10. Your music requests. You like to request "Baby" or "ever, ever, ever" when I have the Kindle out. You love to hold the Kindle and sing to your favorite songs.
11. Your running foot steps. You love to run and are usually in a hear. There is nothing like a pitter patter of little running feet in the house.
12. Cheese! You are still up for the millions of pictures that I take and you happily say cheese before you smile. You do request to see the picture after I'm done though.

I've been really behind on reading blogs lately. I was pleasantly surprised to see Emily has been into coloring since I hadn't seen this before I bought her Christmas present :)
