Better Late than Never






It took me awhile to get these done, but I am glad I still went through with it. I had fun with the chalkboard markers to display her 3 year stats. I am glad they wipe easily with a wet cloth as I made a few goofs in doing the typography by hand.

Unlike her 2 year pictures, it was a nice surprise to have Eliza cooperate with me in being posed. Dhe'd mimic some of my hand placements with easy and then of course "I see I see" right afterwards.

But the phrase I had to continually tell her was "Tongue back in the mouth!"

Some other tidbits of fluff 3 year stats are:

Current Obsession- Air Planes (air naines)
Potty trained- AM & PM
Say hello to just about anyone
Can forward roll
Loves the park and climbing on daddy
Is becoming increasingly more aware that mommies and daddies have different private parts
Daily songs sung- Anything Frozen, Peg + Cat 'We Solved the problem', Jesus Loves Me, I've Got the Joy Joy Joy.
Most repeated phrase- I hungry 
Current Friends- Evan, Lydia, Brett, Dorothy
Can count to 10
Knows her basic colors (loves pink)
Peddles a tricycle
Enjoys her swing and almost has the motions of pumping her legs, but lacks leaning her body
Brushes her teeth on her own
Likes to talk to grandparents on the phone

Terrible Whats?!


I came across a blog which I've visited before called Scary Mommy, and after someone posted this link, blog entry resinated heavily with the season of life I'm in. Feel free to give it a read through since I am unable to copy and paste portions of it.

I had overheard folks talk about how age 3 was worse than 2, but kinda brushed it off as delayed terrible 2's.

Well......

It.is.true...

I think the language difference is totally accurate. There are times where I want to rip my ears off after hearing the same statement or blasted Frozen song over and over. Is there no escaping?

Oh...and the bladder issues.

I know where the bathroom is in the majority of places we shop. And when we reach the room of relief, she suddenly doesn't have to go. Graah! If you've ever tried to fight a three year old to sit on a toilet and stay on...it just ain't going to work. Then if you are at home and casually state your need for the bathroom, all of a sudden....

It.is.the.biggest.potty.emergency.of.their.life!

You are pushed aside as your child runs to the toilet as if they were being chased by zombies.

Lastly...tantrums.


I think this explains it all.


Any bets on how the 4's will be?
