Bailey

Bailey has been doing so many fun things lately that I thought I would share a few with you. This last weekend Kyle's parents came down to stay with us and Sunday night Kyles dad was putting Bailey to bed and was telling her a story while she was laying there and she looked up at him and said,"Papa its time to be quite, its nigh nigh time!" Paul said OK good night and came out laughing. How cute is that!?! I have never thought Bailey to be in the "terrible twos" status but at times I would qualify her more as "sassy seconds." Her favorite thing to tell me when I am in her "bubble" is leave me alone mom! I know SO sassy! Luckily its not that often and usually when she is tired. I have been trying to teach her a better way to communicate her feelings when she is bugged. So now she says leave me alone mom please... well its a step in the right direction anyways! Really though she is usually a very fun and loving girl. She loves Sophie (so far) and has never been mean to her she is always trying to give Sophie her "B" (her blanket that she loves) and her toys. She is always looking out for her too. If Kyle has Sophie and I am in the other room and Sophie starts to cry she will run into the room and say, " Mom, Sophie needs you! Shes crying!" and then she runs back to Kyle and says, "its okay Mommy's coming!" I have to laugh a little but I am glad that she thinks mommy can fix anything. For some reason she calls me mom-mom. The other day I asked her a question and she said, "you betcha mom-mom!" She loves to sing her current favorites are the snowman song (that's what she was sing in the pictures below were she is dancing) the Itsy Bitsy spider and the ABC song which she sings ABC, LMNOP, ABC, LMNOP over and over again. She loves to count she was counting everything as 2,9,6 but now she usually counts to five and then adds her own style after that. She LOVES Dora and Diego which I don't know about you but I just can get enough of those shows... :) One thing that has always amazed me about little kids is how easily they become friends. We were at the park the other day and it was just us and another random little girl Baileys age and Bailey came up to me and said, mom she play with me? I said sure go tell you want to play so she went up to her and said "come on, I show you!" and they were best friends after that until it was time to go home. The other day Kyle was taking a nap with Bailey and he got a text message and his phone rang like a door bell and Bailey completely asleep said, "ding dong" and then went back to sleep. Okay so can you tell I love my daughter? She does something that makes me smile everyday and I am so lucky to have her!
