Grace: 4 days shy of 2 years, 8 months

Tonight she has on her snow white dress. Her Daddy says, "come on snow white." Grace's reply, "Daddy! I'm princess snow white!"

She's really into choosing. She needs a choice of outfits and food to eliminate meltdowns for any breakfast, lunch, dinner or when it's time to change clothes. She'll sit for 30 minutes to an hour with a magazine asking you to chose something on the page and then telling you what others (Crewe, Brookie, Andy, Dawson, Nonnie, etc) would choose too. If she doesn't like what you've chosen she'll say, "no you chose this." while pointing to what she wants you to choose.

She also likes to tell you what answer she prefers to a question. Example:
Grace: "will you play play-doh with me?" "Say okay, Mommy."

She's been battling a UTI just before Christmas and then an ear infection just after but seems to be on the mends.

Her favorite treat is a Starbucks birthday cake pop!

When playing puzzles she divides the pieces into groups- one for her, one for me, and one for her daddy. We have to put together ONLY the pieces she's given us and can't combine them until everyone has put their set together.

We're still working on potty training. She uses the potty often- either she tells me when she needs to go or goes on her own. However it's just inconsistent.

After my post last night about her not needing her paci to sleep, she's done nothing but begged for it today. False alarm, I thought she was going to give it up on her own.

She's hit the "WHY?" stage.

And her other favorite question is, "where we go next?"

Hope your 2012 is off to a great start! Xoxo from our house to yours!
