just like your big sister


There are many things that I appreciate about you being like your sister. One is that because she isn't aggressive by nature, you seem very calm compared to other younger siblings I know that have an older brother. You know how to sit calmly and attempt to entertain yourself. You think jumping on the bed, singing, and dancing are about the funnest things to do in the world. You aren't a picky eater (still keeping our fingers crossed). The one thing that really gets us is that you've taken to screaming like Eve did. When she gets really excited or tickled, she does a very high pitched scream that you have taken to. Every time you see a dog, every time you get hungry, every time you get excited, every time you want anything at all you do the same high pitched scream that Eve does. It's actually painful.

You are a full-time walker now and need no help getting anywhere. You really enjoy being in the lobby of the building and walking from table to table trying to grab the plants and flowers before I stop you. It's all a game. We've found a park where you can run around all by yourself and scream as much as you want at the Friendship House. It's miniature and has 3 inch steps that you like to step up. It's been fun.

You have been eating an entire bowl of oatmeal for breakfast every day and have been sleeping very well at night, which is much appreciated.

You now have 5 teeth which really changes your smile, and fortunately you have not been biting.
