Paisley

She is quick approaching 4 years old! It is hard to believe but really it could not come soon enough. 3 is rough in these parts and with Griffin 4 was magical relief of that...I hope it to be true for Paisley as well.

With that said she is still so so sweet and kind and caring for all members of the family. She always wants to be involved...helping with any chore, meal making, cleaning up, etc. She is my helper!

we are working on her sleeping in her own bed. Guess what daddy promised if she does it 5 nights in a row? A pillow pet. The girl is soooo excited. and she thinks Griffin should get one too so she is bargaining for why he deserves one too. haha.

Her speech is worlds ahead of the boy at this age but we still have deciphering issues.

smoothie comes out movie (very confusing when both are requested frequently)
silly comes out scary (bad when she calls her grandma silly-ha)
tree comes out free
three comes out free (funny when she says she is three)

She LOVES to paint, draw, practice her writing and numbers, read with us and to her baby dolls, play in her kitchen, and generally be silly. She is incredibly good at the computer and video games too...amazes me how good. I think she is going to rock at the big sister thing and also the middle child thing!

love you baby pais...soon we won't be able to call you that but I still like that nickname.

Also- didn't you say that when asked whether she wanted the baby to be boy or girl she replied a BOY. Why? "So Griffin can have someone to play with"

Yes but that is with the caveat that we have a fourth and it is a girl and also because she wants desperately to be the older sister to a boy so it is the reverse of her and griffin. She is smart that one.
