ayla is three...

happy happy birthday ayla! 

you are now three.

my baby is THREE!! 

i love that girl. like really love her. she is so much fun. her personality is awesome. she can talk. like really talk and she loves to talk to people. doesn't matter who you are or if she knows you or not. it doesn't phase her. she wont go near you but as long as she is with me she will chat and chat. she calls everyone a lady. "hey lady",. "whats your name lady"... boy or girl. i find it hilarious. she makes every shopping trip entertaining. 

last week we went to Burlington to get some things for Easter. she fell asleep on the way there so i carried her asleep on my shoulder as we walked around the store. once she started to wake up i laid her into the basket of the cart, she was more awake then asleep at that point. there were two workers putting clothes back onto the racks having a good ole time with each other, laughing and talking. she shot up out of the cart and yelled "hey, you woke me up!" they laughed and said sorry.. but she didn't stop there. she then told them that they needed to be more quiet.. she told them in a whisper and when they said okay we can be quiet they didn't whisper it, which was too loud for ayla... well she didn't like that so she started to chew them out about being quiet while she was sleeping. after a little chat with them they finally said okay. we have to go now. ayla then said, "why, you gotta go poop, mom that lady gotta pooooooppp?" whhhhaaaattttttt... why. why did you say that. luckily they thought it was HILARIOUS and i couldn't walk away fast enough. she also constantly tells people to stop lookin' at her when we pass them in the stores. i've started to turn movies onto my phone to distract her when we are out and about.

facts about our little lady...

she still is wearing 18 month to 2T clothes

she sleeps all night. 12 hours a night. (i feel like i need to document this since mya didnt sleep through the night until..... well....... im still waiting)

she refuses to potty train, has absolutely no desire, nor do i until she begins to show interest... but she does constantly tell me that she is peeing. its gross and freaky. its super fun when she does it in the store. nothing like "uh oh mom, i am peeing" to get EVERY single person to stare at you. i just wanna yell don't worry, she is still in diapers.

she still doesn't eat much food, she likes cereal and yogurt, maybe a hot dog or corn dog here and there, nothings really appeals to her except apples. she probably eats 10 or 12 apples a week. i need to plant an apple tree in the backyard. and popsicles, she can pound those too.

she continues to be fearless, to the point that it scares you to death... yet cant stand something dirty on her hands. all food has to be given to her in a wrapper. she cant touch it nor can it make her sticky. unless it is an apple. she could have the juice of an apple dripping down her entire body and not bat an eye.

i hope this little lady always knows how much i love her, because let me tell you. i do, more than i could ever say. she completed us when she joined our family three years ago.
