Hey Doll Baby - here are some notes I needed to get out before too much more time goes by; boy, it flies!

Shrugging shoulders; what-the-what?; monsters are coming; love to hide and say find me – just put your head behind the pillow; told me you and Claudia were going to NYC; like to talk about getting cupcakes on your b-day; been saying you want a little brother and a little sister (before you didn’t and you wanted a dog); walk around like you’re tip-toeing and like to dance; tell me to “turn it up” in the car all the time. Everybody’s a bird: naked bird, dirty bird, silly bird. I’m not a dirty bird, you’re a dirty bird! Like mommy to sing the sandman song, lollipop, bingo (using all our names). When playing on daddy’s iphone you say “the As are on.” You say ‘hippie kai aye’ when we ask you about Grand Sam.

You are such a sweet, happy girl - took another airplane trip (daddy brought you solo down to Naples to meet up with me). The vacation was a bit of a bust (cold and daddy had to work) but we had some QT together which is good no matter where we are.

You really don't like bathing lately and sometimes run to your bed in tears and just rest there when you are "sad." You tell us you're "sorry" when you've done something you know is wrong, but I know it is frustrating being 2 and not understanding why you can't have everything like you want it all the time.

We love you little bear! Mommy
