My crazy daughter

She’ll change outfits an average of 5 times a day (she’s REALLY slowed down). So far today, she’s worn a plaid skirt (inside-out) with a floral top, pink pants with a (backwards) purple sweater, pink pants (a different pair) with a red shirt, and her “princess” dress. She’s currently nude and sitting on my lap.

Today, she spilled milk on the computer desk (thankfully nowhere near the computer) and swished it around with her hands. She had drawn on her hands with a yellow highlighter, so the milk had a neon yellow tint to it. I told her to get a towel to clean up the mess, and she promptly obeyed.

She loves vegetables, macaroni & cheese, apple juice, milk, crackers, anything sweet, and chewable vitamins. She doesn’t understand why she’s limited to only one vitamin a day.

She can make me crazy and then make me melt all in less than a minute.

She will never turn down a bubble bath or playing outside.

She insists on doing things herself, like getting dressed, fetching a burp cloth or diaper for Antonio, getting on the potty, etc.

She’s my comic relief.
