Oh Vi!

Violet is growing up so fast.  Daily she says stuff that shocks me.  She is pretty hilarious.  I wish I wrote down everything she says because I'm terrible at remembering it all and it would be great to look back on.

Her favorite thing to say right now is "I'm a big girl now".  She says it for everything.  Anytime I want to help her thats her retort.  She even says "Daddy's a big girl boy"  haaaaa.  

She also loves to say "thats MY Mommy" or thats MY sissy".  And she loves to tell that to everyone, including strangers.  She's got quite the 'tude.

The other day I had Justin on speaker phone and told her to say hi to him.  She got an attitude and crossed her arms across her chest and turned her back to me.  I couldn't believe it.  Already acting like a grumpy teen!

She now knows all her friends names and asks about them all the time.  She also has a sense of where we are when we drive places.  Like she knows were near Mimi's house or Grandma's house.  Or church or the gym.  

She says full on sentences and is starting to repeat everything!  Now we gotta be careful what we say!  She LOVES all the Toy Story movies and wants to watch them about 4 times a day.  Time for another movie to be added to the mix.  

She also spends countless hours a day carrying Penny around.  She pretty much tortures her.  She screams and throws a tantrum whenever Penny gets away from her.  Its kinda exhausting and I feel bad for Pen.  She usually makes her sit in the walker or the baby jumper.  

She still runs around outside despite the cold or rain.  And 99% of the time naked.  She goes out with clothes, jacket and all.. and comes back completely naked.  And usually covered in mud.

She's super excited for Santa and loves to say "Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas".  Not gonna lie, I am SUPER excited for Christmas this year with her.  

Cuz one bandaid isn't enough
