My kids are awesome.
Ella, you are the silliest, funniest, and most beautiful girl I have ever known. It is not hard for you to put a smile on my face. You're 3. Here are somethings about you that I don't want to forget and that you might like to know about yourself one day:
*You call your forehead your headboard and I absolutely cannot correct you :)
*You are right in the middle of a growth spurt. You're like a bottomless pit!
*One of your favorite things to do is go to the movies. We went and saw Gnomeo and Juliet for valentine's day this year. You loved the movie. I didn't like it much, but there's no one else who I'd rather sit through a boring movie with than you. (you did great with the 3d glasses too!)
*You've been potty trained for almost a year. Awesome!
*Your favorite musicians: Taylor Swift, Zac Brown, Owl City, Skillet, Shinedown, and Baby Einstein
*We dance. A lot.
*You LOVE to make up songs. The other day you were making up a song in the kitchen while I was cooking and it went a little something like this "I love my little sis so much and I love my mom too" in the cutest little sing, song voice.
*You LOVE your little sister.
*Sometimes you look at me and tell me just how much you love me and it isn't something that you think about ahead of time to say, it's like it just spills out. Those moments are incredible to me.
*You also think Dad is terrible at combing hair and only mom does it without hurting you. (I still accidentally pull your hair sometimes and Dad's actually not that bad) And you finally will let me put ponies in your hair! Although some mornings you still tell me that you want crazy hair. :)
Sadie,
You are changing so fast! It wasn't that long ago that you were sleeping the days away in your swing. I am so blessed to be your mom and watch you learn and grow more every single day. Here's what you're up to now:
*Helloooooo separation anxiety!!
*Anything you can spot that looks sturdy, you make a bee-line for to pull up on it
*You can say dada, mama, baba, hi, ella (eh-da), and all sorts of other noises
*You will eat anything. Tomatoes, lettuce, squash, guacamole, cake, chicken, i could go on and on
*Mommy is your favorite person and you make me feel so special.
*We're working on the sippy cup, but you refuse to hold it yourself.
*You finally started sleeping all night, but you're an early riser. You go to bed at 7PM sharp and you're usually up between 5 and 6, ready for the day. You also take two naps a day and they're around 2 hours a piece.
*You put on make-up with me every morning when we get ready for work. You love chewing on my mascara and concealer tubes. Sometimes you get a hold of the eyeliner and by the time I notice that you have it, you've got it all over your face :)
*You love to have shouting matches with my hairdryer.
*It is impossible to change your diaper. Sometimes it feels like I'm putting wrestling moves on you.
*You love to shake your head "no" at me and it's so cute. I think you learned the words Ella and no first because that's probably what you hear the most. :)
*You just got your 3rd and 4th tooth yesterday!
*You got the flu and after that you got your first stomach virus a few weeks ago. It broke my heart.
*You also just got to try out the baby swing at Mimi and Grandad's house for the first time. You loved it.

OMG! I cannot believe that Sadie is getting so big. I feel like I have missed out on so much! And btw, I didn't really like Gnomeo and Juliet, and neither did Piper. She was asking to go to "mommy's house" about half-way through.
