Something..



Something very sweet that I love about Whitney is her compliments. Just out of the blue, she'll say something like,

"I love you!"

"I missed you so much!"

"Are you okay?"

She even notices when I get dressed up. (Or dressed for the day!)
She'll say, "Oh! I like your shirt!" She especially loves it if I'm wearing pink. She'll tell me,
"I love pink! It's my favorite. You like purple."

I love my little girl.
(And my little boy, too!)

She is a good big- sister. Very hands-on, if you know what I mean. She has a love for sweets, making treats and snuggling, just like her Mommy. A love for be-boppin to gangsta music, just like her Daddy. She takes care of all of her animals and literally cries (with tears) for them if they get left behind. She doesn't want them to be scared or lonely.

Whitney is all about friends, social events and being with people. Always has been.

She has been a good girl through this adjustment of having someone 'steal the show'. She wants so badly to be a Mommy to MacKay.

She is two-and-a-half this month. 26.2 pounds. Full of energy. Currently is getting over an ear infection which she was very brave about. At the urgent care, she was such a good girl.

Whitney loves anything technological. Cameras, computers, iPhones, iPods, etc. She'll remind Bart to, "Get the iPod!" when we get in the car. She knows ALL of her favorite songs are on the iPod.

Thanks to StarFall, she is learning her letters, their sounds, and how to use a mouse. She tells me daily that she needs her own computer. (Along with a guitar!)

Lately, Whitney has turned into a Daddy's girl. Bart loves it. He only waited about 2 years for this moment. The other day when he came home from school she said, "I missed you so much." She knows how to melt our hearts.

Whitney is potty trained. Still has a "fear" of going #2 on the potty. She likes to use her bed-time diaper to unload. So I guess she is poopy-trained. She does it in a diaper?!

Her one wish? To go to Disneyland. How does she know of this place? Well, that's where ALL the princesses live. And Buzz and Woody live there too. When she sees commercials for Disneyland/Disneyworld, she'll say,
"I want to go there- SO BAD!!" When she saw all the characters on a commercial, she said, "They ALL live there! I want to go there!"

Looks like that is where we need to take our next family trip!

I want to slow down time so I can enjoy this phase of her life.

Oh little June-bug. I love you so much. Thank you for making me a Mommy.

such a sweet post, Krista! Whitney sounds so much like Gwen...only I WISH Gwen would be a little more interested in potty training. She just wants to flush the toilet. :)

How did you transition Whit to her big girl bed?

Okay, this little Whitney is my kind of girl! I LOVE how girly she is. She reminds me so much of Madeline at this age. Especially all of her "out of the blue" compliments - a true girl! And when did you have time to potty train these past few weeks?! I'm impressed! And the fear of going #2 is very normal around here;) Madeline would only go once a week until she was 3. Great job Whitney!
