Baylor: Mommy’s right hand man…

• I am walking all over the place now.  Sometimes I even like to march.
• I eat almost anything you put in front of me.
• I want everything that Madelyn gets no matter what it is, I want one too.
• I like to dance and sway my hips like Forrest Gump impersonating Elvis. (My Daddy says that is what it looks like).  I can’t help but bounce to a beat when music comes on.
• I love to hear myself talk into a microphone.
• I love to play basketball.  Mommy and Daddy hope that I am good at dribbling so that I can be a point guard, because that is my only chance at playing basketball. 
• I love riding my new tractor and pressing the horn.
• My favorite word is “Ma Ma” and I try to see how many times a day I can say it.  Mommy says I have probably set a record.
• If my Mommy is around, you better believe I want to be sitting on her hip.  I LOVE for my Mommy to hold me…who cares about her getting anything done, right?
• I love my big sister and love to try and make her laugh. 

Madelyn: Age 3 going on 13

• Mommy says that I am growing up to fast and that I am getting a sassy mouth, which is apparently not good.  My favorite sayings include, “Cuz, I want to,” “Now, you listen to me, (insert first name here),” “I’m not kidding, Laura,” “That’s okay, you can try better tomorrow Mommy,” “I love (insert unnecessary object from Target or TJ Maxx) and have to have it.  I NEEEEED it Mommy!”
• My absolute favorite food is BUTTER, preferably right out of the packets at restaurants if I can get away with it.
• I LOVE my new trampoline and am grateful for anyone who will sit outside in the cold garage and watch me jump.
• I am starting to pee in the potty regularly, but as for pooping, NO WAY…its still too much fun to watch Mommy and Daddy gag when they have to change a pooped diaper.  I say, “Don’t watch me I am pooping….okay…all done…change me so I can play some more.”  Mommy says that I should know better.
• I am getting much better at coloring and staying inside the lines. 
• I LOVE playing dress up and I am rarely seen in normal clothes around the house.  I love wearing high heels but sometimes I tell Mommy, “Whew Mommy, my feet need a break from these shoes,” as I kick of my heels.
• I love taking baths with Baylor.  He has “boy stuff” and I have “girl stuff.”  His is “funnier.”  I tell Mommy to get Baylor out first so I can “lay down and relax.”
• I still love going to ballet and I even paid Mrs. Vicki two pennies last week for teaching me, she said that was a first.
• Mommy and Daddy signed me up for T-ball this spring.  I can’t wait to play, but I really don’t like to wear a glove.
• I am working on giving up my paci because Dr. Lookadoo says it is ruining my teeth.  So for now, I only get to use it at night.
