She is Free (3)!

Hard to believe that three years has passed since little Maycee Jane joined our family. She is such a fun little lady to spend each day with and sometimes I forget she is only three because she talks so much and seems to understand so many things! Sometimes I wonder where she gets stuff from and then I remember its something I told her three or four days before! Some of the funny things she has been saying lately:

  • "Mom, I'm a lot of hungry"
  • "When kids are three they can't lay by themselves" (bed time is a struggle)
  • "I have a good idea..." (always has a plan to get what she wants)
  • "If you let me watch a show, I will let you put my hair in pony tails

  • She is for sure into anything princess or toy story right now. I think she may be able to recite a couple scenes word for word from Tangeled (we have had to limit the watching to a few times a week). So fun to see her wearing a princess dress up with her "jessie boots". She LOVES to play with her cousins and jumps off the wall when you mention that Jack & Halle are coming over or that we get to go play at Sophia's house. Her favorite friends right now are Emma and Serious - she made these two up. I think I may say "are you serious" too much. Emma and Serious go pretty much everywhere with us and they are really good at helping her get into trouble. I love that she has such an awesome imgaination!! She is a sucker for the swings and the slide at the playground and will beg for days to ride the dragon on the carosel at the mall. Bath time is the BEST time of the day for her...we have to make deals with her to get her out of the tub! Sadly this little girl has a very short list of what she is willing to eat, the top foods are fruit loops, oatmeal, bread with butter, chicken nuggets, peanut butter and jelly and yogurt. Just have to hope the pickiness will pass!
    She is definitely one of my favorite people to be with and I am so glad I get to spend every day with her and love that she makes me smile and laugh every day.
    I love my Maycee Jane...Happy 3rd Birthday!!

    Oh -- you are SO detailed on your blog. What a treat! Maycee is a doll. She reminds me so much of my Gracie. Especially with the "If you let me watch a show..." bargaining.

    Hope all is well with you guys!
