Breath of Fresh Air

I wonder where Marlow gets it... she LOVES being outside!! 

I've taken a great interest in finding new "chores" for her to do around the house.  Each morning she helps mommy by watering all the plants and herbs... and herself of course.  She takes great pride in putting her dishes in the sink, throwing away her trash, pushing in her chair after a meal.  She also loves to help with laundry loading and folding.  I take great pleasure in watching her wipe her mouth clean and then wipe her feeding area.  It's adorable!!  At bath time she knows where her towels are and grabs them on her run over to the big girl tub.

When I say run, I mean RUN... the girl has picked up speed lately.  I love watching her turn corners and try to hit the breaks :)


READY?

SET.

GO!

She's been especially proud to climb up on my raised step I use for exercise with no hands and jump down on a 1, 2, 3 count with no hands.  She doesn't quite pronounce "one, two, three" but she thinks she's saying it. 

I've been trying to ask her how old she is and she's finally getting down her response of "ONE!"

She favorite stories lately has been Where's Mommy, and Llama Llama Red Pajama.

Her favorite song is my rendition of something called "You and Me Makes We."  She points to you on the we part and then herself on the me... she LOVES that song!

And to just melt my heart competely.... when asked, "How much do you love me?" she stretches her sweet little arms as far as they can while showing how much she working at it, and says, "Much!"... as in... "this much."

Oh my baby girl is getting to full blown status.  I even tried testing the potty training waters :/
