To Be Fair, Part 1

I feel like most of my blogging centers on the babies, documenting their every move and milestone. So, in an effort to balance things out (and just in case the girls get a hold of this blog in ten years), this post is all about Bridget, our little firecracker.

Bridget is 2 years, 4 months, going on 16. She is full of personality, and soaks up everything around her. About 10 times a day, we're asked, "What are you guys talking about right now?" Nothing escapes her. Her vocabulary is incredible, mostly because she spends all day, every day with a three year old who wants to have detailed make-believe conversations with her and the rest of the princesses, princes, pirates and dragons in their crew.

She loves showing us her "happy face" even in the middle of a tantrum, and forgets what she was upset about the moment one of her babies enter the room. Although she's already been kicked out of her crib and her diapers, she still likes to be a baby sometimes. She drinks her milk from a bottle -- gasp!! Considering what a trooper she's been so far with the explosion in our family (and the irreparable psychological damage done to her by virtue of being the middle child, of course!) we'll let her drink from her bottle for a few more months :)

She's alternately a ham,


goofball,

cuddlebug and adoring big sister,

colorer and Doodle-Pro extraordinaire,

reader,

clothed and otherwise,

and worshiper of her big sister.

Some more Bridget stats for her fans and her baby book:

Favorite Book: Goodnight Moon
Favorite Movie: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Favorite Cartoon: Oswald
Favorite Song: "Papa's Song" (Papa's Gonna Buy You a Mockingbird), Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
Her Naptime and Bedtime Companions: No less than 3 specific blankets, her doggie, her sippy cup of water, and an assortment of dolls with their blankets
Favorite Foods: Chicken nuggets with ranch, juice, oatmeal, rice, pasta, juice, artichokes, tacos, juice, and, oh, did I mention juice?

We love her!

Stay tuned for Megan's turn in the spotlight :)

I have got to tell you, I have been biting my tongue forever, but I have been SO partial to your little Bridget! Her personality shines in every pic! And she reminds me so much of my (middle child, of course!), Lexi!
