IIIIIIIIII GOTCHA!

Caroline has this fun little game she likes to play. She crawls up the steps and then sits at the top jibbering and jabbering as loud as she can until she gets my or John's attention. Then when we start heading up to bring her back down she crawls (yes crawls b/c that's what she could do when she started the game - even though now she can practically run) away from us into one of the bedrooms. When I catch her I always scream "IIIIIIIIIIIII GOTCHA!" and tickle her. Now, when I catch her she says I gotcha too, but it's not the exact words, just mimicing the sounds. She's not talking a ton yet. She'll repeat us when we say something, mimic the sounds, but not initiating much on her own. Just mama, loleta, and dada and now IIIIIIgoya!


She's really a sweatheart this girl of ours. Such an easy going babe. But when she's angry - stand back - that girl has no fuse at all just immediate self destruction.


Loretta is seeming so old to me now. I have to remind myself that she's 3 all the time. She's showing signs of real compassion and understanding. She also knows when she's been wronged and isn't afraid to let you know it too. I like that she sticks up for herself. She's a tough cookie and demands fairness and her due. She's also stubburn as a bull, but I have no idea where she gets that from ;o)

Loretta has also become quite the picture taker. She loves taking our camera and snapping shots of anything and everything. More often then not, she ends up with something pretty amazing.

Last, but certainly not least, Happy Birthday to Grandma T!!!! We love you!

That's all for now, take care.
