Jenny's Favorite Things

Jenny is growing up so fast.  She is able to express distinct likes and dislikes.

She loves swimming,
 but is too cautious to jump off of the edge alone

She adores her baby sister
and tries to comfort her when she's crying.

She likes wearing Mommy's socks and shoes, 
 and Daddy's socks and shoes,
                                        (knee, ouch!) 
but she wants to take off her own shoes as soon as we get in the car.

She loves to read books, and her sense of humor is developing.
She is also keen on the "where's Waldo?" approach to books (i.e. finding gold bug and lowly worm)

She wants to wear her glasses,
but gets frustrated if they won't go on right.  She has started putting them on right side up however :)

She likes music and has just started to sing.
She's not really supposed to be in this cabinet, but how can I say "no" to this??

She now asks for the "mink minkie" and "white minkie" at bedtime, will refuse the orange cup when she wants the purple cup, asks to use the "doggy potty" (frog), and wants to "ug" everyone to delay bedtime.
When she finishes her sandwich, she will ask for fruit, go'fish, chips and cookies.
She will randomly remember a cousins name (frequently "Lora" "Iby" or "baby Water") then she goes down the list of all she can remember at the time.  The other day, she was quite proud of herself for remembering "baby Edah" who is usually forgotten.

  2. Awww, fun times! I really like the socks and shoes on her, I remember Lance going through that - he would pull the socks all the way up on his thighs - hilarious!
