Things I Say

3 year olds say some funny things.  I am 3.  Here are some things that I have been saying.

"I am a big girl now because I don't suck on the toothpaste anymore."

Mommy and Daddy always try to get me to eat food like them.  My new way to say no is to tell them "I don't eat every food that you eat."  

I like to tell jokes too.

"Knock, knock."  

Who is there? 

"Bananas!"  

Bananas who?  

"Do you have bananas on your head?"

"Knock, knock."
Who is there?
"Dinosaurs"
Dinosaurs who?
"Watch out!  You have a big dinosaur on your head!"

My knock, knock jokes always have something on your head because that is funny.  

Baby Brother

Mommy finally got that baby out of her tummy!  I thought it was going to live in her tummy forever.  But he came out and he was a boy.  I used to say it was a boy and then I changed it to a girl.  But when Daddy asked me when I saw him I said it was a boy.  His name is Baby Julian.  He is little and cute.  

 I love holding him.  I love kissing him.  I have a hard time keeping my hands off of him.

The baby and Mommy lived at the hospital.  I liked going there to look for the babies in the window.  But most of the time they weren't there.  Daddy said they were with their Mommy and they were in the window at night.  But at night I was sleeping so I didn't see them too much.  My favorite part of the hospital is pushing buttons for the elevator though.  Grandma made me and Riley take turns so we wouldn't fight.

Now Julian lives with us at home.  I am going to be a good big sister for him.  He cried when Mommy gave him a bath and I said "Don't worry your big sister is right here."  I like taking care of him.  I like to put his paci back in his mouth. And I control the swing when he is in there. When he gets dressed or gets his diaper changed and bring my stool so I can see.  I'm learning too.  When I hold my dolls I make sure I support the head.  See I already know how to take care of babies.

New Room

Me and Riley got a new room.  It is really my old room with new colors.  The walls are pink and blue.  And we have a new bed that has 2 beds in it!  But Riley and I like to sleep in the same bed.  We slept in the bottom bed and in the top bed.  It is fun to have 2 beds because you can sleep where you want.  And I got Mommy to take a nap with me on the new bed too.

We have the same room because the baby has the other room.  Daddy put the baby bed in the baby bedroom.  The baby bed is not like our bed.  It looks like a cage.  Babies cry a lot at night so they have to sleep by themselves.  But when the baby is bigger they can come into our room too.

Winter Vacation

Guess where I was this week?  I went to Florida with Gram and Papi!  Riley was in school so she didn't go. She went to Florida without me before. So it was my turn.  We stayed in a nice house.  I had my own room with a TV.  I liked watching TV in my bed.  It was like I was in Mommy and Daddy's bed at home.  There was a kitchen and we cooked food.  I even helped squeeze out some orange juice to drink.

"Florida has a pool!"  That is what I told Mommy and Daddy.  There was a pool and I went swimming a lot.  I even got a tan.  And there was an alligator by the pool. Did you know alligators make a good bed?

I did a bunch of stuff.  We went to this place with a bunch of rocket ships (Kennedy Space Center).  And I watched a lot of movies on Gram's iPad.  I even learned the numbers to unlock it.  They bought me some legos.

I had a fun week spending time with them. I was joking and singing. I would say "hey Gram" and "hey Papi".  When they said "what?", I said "nothing".  It was a funny joke.  And we sang the "Who Let The Dogs Out" song.  That song is so funny.   

I was not home for Balentine's Day so I sent Mommy and Daddy a video from Florida.  It was a long drive but I went home today.  I was excited to see Mommy and Daddy.  I kept hugging Mommy and her belly.

I will see Florida again in the summer...

Practicing For School

I see Riley doing her homework and I want to do homework too.  I want to practice my writing and coloring and cutting with scissors.  I really like cutting with scissors.  It is pretty fun.  I can't use the big scissors because they are not safe.  I use the little kid scissors.  (If you didn't know, I am a lefty.)

Riley was doing some homework with hearts and I wanted to make a heart card.  I cut out the heart and glue sticked it to the paper.  I even wrote my name by myself.  Daddy wrote it down and I looked how to draw the letters.  

L - U - C - I.  

Chocolate Bunny

Here is a picture of me eating dinner with Chocolate Bunny.  I pulled up a chair for her and made a seat right next to me.  I ate some pizza but Chocolate Bunny didn't eat pizza.

Hello 2013

Have you been wondering what I have been doing since Christmas?  My friend Camryn came over for New Year's Eve and we played until the middle of the night.  Speaking of middle of the night, I usually get up in the middle of the night and sneak into Mommy and Daddy's room.  When they put me to bed I tell them what I am going to do, "When you are sleeping in the middle of the night, I'm going to go in your room!".

I am back at Alice's and gymnastics.  Jocelyn is my friend at Alice's house and she had a birthday party.

I have been watching a lot of movies.  I am really into Barbie movies right now.  Yesterday, I would watch about 15 minutes of a Barbie movie and then move on to the next on.  I watched Diamond Castle and The Barbie Nutcracker.

I went to the doctor and he looked at my ears.  He said my ear tubes are still there.  I can't see them though. He told me I won't need them when I turn 4.

And guess what else?  Mommy's belly is getting bigger and bigger.  I like to feel the baby kick my hands.  She keeps talking about "when the baby comes" but I keep waiting and no baby comes.  I don't know when the baby will be here.  Maybe by next Christmas?  I used to say the baby is a boy but now I say it is a girl.
