As an only child.

For several months, Mommy's tummy has been getting bigger and bigger.  It's harder and harder to sit on her lap.  Mom and Dad told me that there is a baby in Mommy's tummy - my baby brother.  He's going to be here any day now.  I have a book I love to read about being a big sister, and I think I sorta get it.   The other day we found a baby sock in my room, and I was happy to go put it in his room - because it's for babies, and I'm a big girl.  I'm going to be a big helper, and try very hard to be a good big sister.

(p.s. my other favorite book is about a potty!  Mom says she's not ready for that!)

I know Mom and Dad will always love me - and how could they not?  Look how stinkin' cute I am!

December!

It's getting colder out.  But I don't like to wear my hat outside.  Inside, however, is a different story.  Inside, I like to put my hat and mittens on all the time!

I can push my own cart at Trader Joe's!

When I have playdates with my friends, sometimes we take off our pants.  We're toddlers, it's what we do.

 

Then it was Christmas time!  We had a party at my school

And then lots of parties with our family.   We went to Kristin's, Grandpa's, Aunt Sharon's, and had Grandpa, Papa, and Uncle Brad over for breakfast.   What a fun few days!

Sometimes I like to put a bag on my head.  What's so wrong with that?

November

Fall finally came to Michigan!   

And I was a big helper for daddy!



Unfortunately, Mom and I spent a lot of the month sick.  Yuck!  I had to go to work with Daddy sometimes.  His friend Ann made me a fort!

 The biggest news this month was that I got a BIG GIRL BED. 

Here's a few more videos of me being silly

October

October was full of our usual fun - coloring with grandpa

Playing at the park with friends

and doing art projects

 Mom and I work on our laptops together

I got a big girl haircut

 And went to the cider mill

Then it was Halloween.  I didn't really love my monkey costume.  I liked playing in my yard that night, but not really going to the other houses.

 All in all, a good month.  Mommy's tummy is getting bigger....
