To Remember #11

1. The house is neater and cleaner more often these days.  The kids can help clean up the clutter and are excited to get stickers when they help.  They also like "cleaning to make Daddy happy."  Important milestone.....we're less and less headed for the show "hoarders."
2. Jillian constantly asks "why."
3. Landon can count to thirty pretty well and Jillian can count to ten pretty well.
4. Jillian says, "Cudder me Mama.  Cudder."  aka "Cuddle with me Mama. Cuddle."
5. Jillian has been repeating everything Landon says for almost a year now.  Seriously, just yesterday, Landon asked for the FIRST TIME why Jillian says everything he says.  I told him, "She's still learning how to talk.  And she's a little sister.  That's just what little sisters do."  He said, "Oh. Okay."
6. Jillian will allow a bow to be in her hair as long as we're not in the car.  She still hates ponytails and pigtails.
7. Jillian can't say her "S's" or her "v/f" sounds.  So I often hear, "Help!  Hombody help!  Help!  Homboday help!"  And "huperman will hate you."
8. Landon used to ask for PB&J for breakfast and lunch.  He now has informed me peanut butter tastes bad.  Jillian used to eat bananas for every snack.  She now tells me they are icky.
9. Jillian isn't loyal too long to any stuffed animal or doll.  A few months ago she was clinging to Susie the doll.  She now launches Susie across the room if I try to give her at bedtime.  Currently Jillian is cuddling with "baby lion" or "bunny lovie."
10. Jillian often wakes me up by poking my forehead with her pointer finger repeatedly, until I mumble something to her.
11. Both kids hate it when the other one is sleeping.  They can't stand to be without the other one when they first wake up.
