My Eloise, where do I start? Yesterday evening, while I was cleaning up dinner, you got a pair of scissors off of my desk and decided to give yourself a "shortcut". There were chunks of your hair on the floor. Thankfully, you are pretty skilled at hairdressing, and I can barely tell where it came from! This morning, you somehow pooped your way through your pull-up, pajamas, sheets, comforter, etc. and required a bath before I could even have a cup of coffee.
In short, you keep me on my toes, and I love you for it!! You teach me so much about patience and love, and actually, a whole lot about myself. Out of my three children, you are the one most like me. Before bed tonight, you requested Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and just so I could hear your sweet little giggle, I sang Twinkle Twinkle Poopy Star....your giggles light up my world and I'm not a afraid to use some potty humor to get some.
Favorite Food? It seems to change weekly, but spaghetti (withOUT sauce) is your current favorite, and you remind me that you "Don't like chocolate" almost daily. Your favorite show is "Little Einsteins" and you could play "family" with your sister all day, every day. You always want to be the "sweet peet", which makes my heart smile HUGE, because I call you "sweet pea" from time to time.
You know just how cute you are and also know how to work your smile to get out of trouble. You don't listen to me....like never listen to me....unless I threaten to take away your "Giraffey" Giraffey will be going to college with you, for sure. You are both a wonderful little sister and big sister. We are working on sharing and taking turns. Speaking of taking turns, you love to play "eenie meanie miney mo". Somehow, you always win at that game and it's always YOUR turn!
Happy 3rd Birthday, angel baby. I love you so much!
We celebrated your birthday over a two day period. The morning of your actual birthday, we woke up and opened presents!
Daddy went into work late and made you a special pancake.
