She's Just So Darn CUTE!

- Melanie sometimes does a little routine where she says, "Okay? Okay!" I must say okay a lot...
- She loves her white socks with the pink bottoms. It's become a necessity with every outfit. And she tells you which foot to put on first, "Right Foot!" then she tells you "Left Foot!"
- She tells you exactly which DVD she wants to watch, "Baby Read!" "Shapes!" "Numbers!" and tells you if you got the wrong one.
- She picks the song I sing to her when going to bed. It's either the ABC song, Itsy Bitsy Spider, London Bridge, Ring-Around-The-Rosie, or I sing my usual, Dream a Little Dream (of Me). She'll yell out "no no no no no" if she wants you to stop.
- If you ask her for help, she'll do anything. She is the household laundress - loading & unloading the washer & dryer and pushing the buttons.
- She's a huge "please" and "thank you" girl.
- In the morning, she picks out her shoes & I put her down on the floor. As I'm finding a hair do-dad, she's off to the living room to grab the comb & wait for me to brush her hair.
- She loves to color, and loves to designate what we should color. She gives me a crayon, points to the paper and says, "circle here!"
- Now that she's more alert to what's going on down there, she says, "Pee-pee!/Poo-poo!" and runs to grab a new diaper from the drawer & hands it to us.
