I kind of miss doing the monthly updates like the first year. Caroline is up to so much these days that I just don't want to forget any of it!! I know I updated on her second birthday, but I feel like she has changed so much even since then. Her little personality is just starting to blossom. I feel like it doesn't take her as long to warm up to people anymore. She is such a blessing, and I just love getting to spend my days with her. She makes me laugh and smile all the time, but she definitely can test me on some days. Like yesterday, she climbed on the end table at the car dealership. She thought it was cute, but mommy did NOT! Thankfully, no one was in the waiting area with us.
She is saying some of the funniest things right now. She saw the spare tire on my car the other morning, and she said "de dirty" followed by "de awful". =))
She puts "de" in front of most things she says. It's cute. Oma says she is speaking German =)
She loves to point her finger and say "I be back". After she screamed like I haven't seen in a long time on her first day of Mother's Day Out, I've been giving her some pep talks before I drop her off at the gym, school, church, etc. Well when I dropped her off at school the other day, she was standing in her classroom and pointed at me and said "You be back". I just laughed. Atleast, I know that she has been listening to our "talks".
She refers to cousin Henry as "Hen". She won't even attempt the "ry" part. She can also say her name.
She is still loving her baby dolls, and she is such a good little momma to them. However, she doesn't want their clothes on. I'm not sure where this came from, but she wants the clothes off!!
She is really good at giving hugs and kisses. I just love when she puts both arms around my neck. Melts.my.heart. If she kisses one cheek, then she must kiss the other one too. So sweet.
She is also in a phase where she wants us to "watch her". She likes to jump off the bottom of her slide {not to freak anyone out- its only a couple inch jump, ha!}. But she will stand on the bottom and say "watch me mommy". Then she jumps, and she thinks it is so funny. She gets pretty proud of herself too!
Our neighbors moved in across the street a month or so ago, and she loves them and all their animals. She goes to them as if they are family, and they are so sweet to her. We walked outside last night, and she kept saying "mow mow" and pointing to their house. Once we got inside, she wanted to play with their cat. I had no idea what she was talking about.
My favorite thing that she is up to these days is saying "I wuv ou", and it just melts my heart {and makes me teary eyed}. I love this sweet girl more than she will ever know!!
