Adlanna Adlanna Adlanna

So She is growing too fast and learning all sorts of new things I wanted to write down so here goes:

• Adlanna said "here you go" yesterday while handing me stuff
• She is more often saying Thank you without being asked or reminded
• She loves to sit on the potty *most of the time* just to pee her pants a few min. after getting off
• she copies you if you let her, put your hand on your cheek and her hand in on her cheek.
  
• She always wants shoes on her feet and on yours... she will mismatch pairs to accomplish this or put your shoes on her and try to put her shoes on you... it's comical! She even put on a new pair of Jennalee's shoes that didn't fit her, but she got them on anyway!
  
• She is now scared of stuff... if she hears a noise she doesn't recognize like a toilet flushing or the cats meowing REALLY loud she runs over and grabs your leg and wants to be picked up while making a "uh" noise showing you she is scared. It is sad but cute.
• She throws her head back to fake laugh... sometimes this is the only way we can get a smile for a picture
• She still loves to give hugs and kisses
• She saw a bald mad at walmart and screamed "PA" and gave me a dirty look when I told her it wasn't grandpa.
• She loves hats...
• She is a big helper, she helped me clean when we got back from vacation by picking up her toys and taking them to her room, she wiped down the TV and dusted the cabinets for me. She hates it when I vacuum but she loves to help in any way that she can!
• She could eat us out of house and home if we fed her breakfast items for every meal...
  
• She is still very picky about reg food and wont even try half the stuff we give her... she often eats breakfast and nothing else the rest of the day, because she wont try it!
  
• She says baby and I think is even closer to understanding she has a sissy coming which is another new word she says sissy
• She loves to make friends where ever we go, any kids get her attention right away and she can't be distracted... She loves babies too!
• She babbles more and more
  
• She still hates the shopping carts at the store
  
• She gets very excited if we talk about Grandma or Grandpa or Grammy or Grampy...
  
• IF mommy and Addie are in the car and mom is singing to the radio she will start singing too
• She always wants to kiss Mommy's poked finger better after I test because she can see the blood.
• She will close all doors behind her even if that means she locked herself in that room, which also brings up that she will lock the handle of that door locks which could be scary...
  

On a separate note Danika has learned to open doors and we are just glad Adlanna hasn't done that yet!

• She is learning to like to talk on the phone, she used to freak out and run away if she couldn't hold the phone to push buttons *didn't ever want to talk* now she will talk to Daddy every day on the phone and let mommy hold the phone.
• If Adlanna is in a bad mood a few things cheer her up 1. snacks, 2. daddy= talking on the phone or going to visit him at work, 3. kitty cats

I might just keep adding stuff as I think of it!

Hope it was a fun update for you all, Hope everyone had a great weekend and week so far, I can't believe it's Wednesday! I have errands to run today and a house to get clean... the kitchen counter has disappeared again... *sigh* but LAUNDRY IS DONE!!!!

p.s. we have been trying Adlanna on the potty more and more and are even bribing her with chocolate, Grammy Sherie mentioned taking a doll to the potty that pee's and I think one of her cabbage patches does this, so we are going to try that. Also we have been using some waterproof training pants that my SIL Josie made and they are very helpful! I don't think she has any trainers up for sale on her Etsy site, but here is the link in case you want to talk to her about making you some. *pictures to come* Thanks Josie for making these!!
