A journal entry on my girl.

Sorry y'all, this post is ALL over the place. I wrote over a few months and added to it every so often. And this is definitely a post that is just for my memory. I didn't feel like taking the time to edit it and make it sound coherent:-)


I first drafted this around her 2nd birthday in February.   Now updating May 1.

I’ve been meaning to take the time to write down what all little C is saying these days.  It’s like she started talking in sentences overnight.  So crazy. 

 

Her article of choice is “e.”  E daddy.  E milly.  Etc.  And actually, Milly is Nilly.

 

Sofia the first is “fia”

 

She loves her “pincess books”  Princess

 

If we ask her to do something she says “otay” and it is so darn cute.

 

We hear lots of “no momma” “no daddy” due to her new independent streak

 

My mom has always told C that she was “Lolly’s” girl…it’s just her thing.  Well I’ll say, “Collins are you mama’s girl?”  and she’ll say “NO, I olly’s girl!”  It is so cute.  EVERY time.  So then we taught her that she is “olly’s girl” “mama’s angel” and “daddy’s princess” and she’ll go around saying that.  HEART melter.

 

*updating this still before I post……..May 1: 

Talks ALL the TIME now.  I can pretty much determine what she is saying 95% of the time. 

Her new thing recently is to say “yaaaah” to everything…like a little valley girl or something, no clue where that came from.  Of course, I immediately say “yes maam” or whatever is fitting, but it makes me laugh.  Yaaaah momma, yaaaaah.  Hear it ALL the time.

She still says Olly instead of Lolly, Nilly instead of Milly.  Fadison instead of Madison.  Pooper instead of Cooper.  (these are her friends at daycare). 

 

Don’t know where she learned this but if she doesn’t want you to do something or doesn’t like something, she will wave her pointer finger back and forth “no, no, no”….i mean, honestly?  2 going on 12? So bossy!  Not a clue where she got that;-)

 

Says “mama, help” when she needs something.  *melts my heart*


Loves her cousins belle Grady... And says it just like that! 

May 22: update:

 

She’s started “fibbing” and I can’t help but laugh…but oh my goodness, where does she learn it?  She fell the other day and got a scratch on the inside of her leg….well Ms. Weezie asked her where that came from and Collins said “momma popped me!”  WHAT the WHAT?!?  And Weezie said…”no way” and then she said “lolly did it.”  bahahhahahahha!!!!  No clue where this stuff comes from.  


 

As far as her personality, me oh my……she is a BOOGER.  Whining a bit too much for my preference, but we haven’t entered full on tantrums or anything, she just cries or whines if she doesn’t get her way.  I don’t give in to her most of the time, but it sure is nice to shut the whining up.   I try to explain that whining and crying isn’t the nice way to act…but you know, not really sure she gets that quite yet, ha.  Still sweet as sugar a lot too.  She loves to help do anything, clean, laundry, chores…but she especially loves to help clean. 


Love this little boog more than life!!!!

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
