Two years ago...
sweet baby
Georgia was all excited about having a birthday after watching Max and Charlie be the birthday boys recently. She told us that for her birthday she wanted "more babies". You can never have too many of those.
Here she is with her daddy and her new baby.
And here she is opening her presents with lots of unsolicited help.
Playing with new birthday toys for her doll house.
Wearing a pretty new dress from Grandma Sonja and Grandpa Kent.
Things to remember about one-year-old Georgia...
- This girl has a major sweet tooth and knows who to ask for treats--ie. uncle John or a grandpa.
- She loves all shoes and wants everyone to wear their shoes.
- She likes to pick her own outfit out.
- She loves babies and loves to be a mommy to her many baby dolls--she rocks them and feeds them and makes sure they are all wearing hats or have bows in their hair.
- She loves to listen to stories and brings me books to read to her all day long.
- She is kind of a daddy's girl these days and she is good at calling him on the phone and breathing into the receiver.
- She does not like to be messy or eat things with her fingers--she likes forks and spoons.
- I love her cheesy smile, it makes me smile.
- She can HOLD HER OWN. She has two older brothers who have helped her develop some pretty serious defense mechanisms, like a very high pitched scream, and sneaky pinching skills. We're working on more friendly ways of dealing with not getting our way.
- She hugs me and says "I love you" out of the blue sometimes and I have to restrain myself from accidentally squishing her because I love this girl so much.
