Love for Leah



Always in a dress- Leah loves fancy dresses most of all.  She put on her new birthday dress first thing this morning, and was so disappointed when I told her she had to change out of it to go to the store.  When I asked her what she was going to wear she replied, "A not fancy dress".  That is so sad to her.

One of my most favorite little things about Leah is her ability to remember everything.  Although this doesn't always work in my favor ("MOM!  Remember, no feet on the chairs at the dinner table!"- my very favorite bad habit), it's usually quite helpful.  I can tell her something that we need from the store a day or two in advance, and she will remember it!  Whether it's glue sticks, hair gel for Daddy, or paper plates, she always remembers and tells me at just the right time. So helpful!  It's like having my own little voice reminder app!

She also loves to listen to music.  She rarely asks if she can watch TV, but almost always wants to have music on.  When she's not twirling around and shaking her hips, she curls up on the couch and presses the speaker right up to her ear so she can memorize the lyrics.  Lately we've been enjoying the Nutcracker Suite and The Chipmunks Christmas, although she always asks me why Dave yells at Alvin so much.  It's a good opportunity to teach her about the importance of quickly obeying Mom!

Have you guys ever read a "Fancy Nancy" book? We got one from the library the other day. It's all glitter and dresses.

Leah look so pretty in her birthday dress!
