Have I mentioned how much I love Brecke! I think I am obsessed. I seriously can't get over everything that she does. And I know its nothing new to the world and that millions of other kids out there have done the same thing, but there is something about watching your own child grow. It's the most amazing experience.
Breckes new thing the past week has been to carry not only her one purse that she has always loved, but to carry both of her purses while pushing her baby in her strolling with her blanket and binky. Yes its allot! but she manages to do it and will do it for hours. She is hilarious. She is also getting so attached to her binky and blanket that it might start becoming a problem. She always wants her "D" which is her binky and usually her blanket follows. I mean she will drag that blanket everywhere. There have been fights when I have had to take it away because she is wanting to take it outside in the rain with her or in the dirt beyond our yard. We had to drive in the car the other day without it and man did I hear it all the way home. SHES OBSESSED!!!! The sad thing is, is I was extremely obsessed with my blanket when I was younger and may still have it and didn't give up my thumb until I was in like 7th grade...WOW I know and so I get nerves but yet I know how she feels when she has it. I also think its dumb to try and do something about it now because soon baby brother will be here and then she will revert back once she sees blanket and binky for brother. Oh man what to do.
Brecke also is a master at showing you all her body parts and saying her animal sounds. Our two favorites that she says is lamb... which she just laughs for cause it sounds like that when we mimc it and the frog...she can't concur that one so she just made up her own sound that sounds nothing like it. SO funny! To me she seems so smart, but Kyle sometimes puts me in check and reminds me that she is probably just right on schedule with her ability to learn but to me shes smart. She can put so many things together and if you show her something once you can be sure she will figure it out on her own and continue to do it. She eats on her own and gets very upset when you try to feed her and she loves "big girl" cups over her sippy. But she will tell you over and over agin in the morning that she wants a "baba" which is her sippy full of milk. Her other new thing this past couple of weeks is singing the itsy bitsy spider. She loves it and will do all the signs and then clap when its over to do it again. She has also started to love to hide and throw herself around on the couch until she gets dizzy......so fun I'm telling ya. I'll update on her soon I'm sure.
