Bailey Update

May 9, 2011 By Christie

Dillon and I were just talking tonight about Bailey and what a stinker she can be these days, ha ha!  BUT… DSC_0123 But she’s been so funny and talkative as well—she always has us laughing.DSC_0165 We also talked about how stressed we were when Carson and Devon acted this way as 2 1/2 year olds. DSCF5733.  But I think we realize now how quickly this fun and crazy stage goes by.  DSCF5691 She’s potty training and that has been going GREAT!  She had a few accidents the first day, but the rest of the week she only had two (one today when she fainted—right when she woke up she said, “Ah!  I peed my pull-up!”).  We tried just straight underwear for the first 3 days, but I got too stressed because we go so many places!  And she only peed once in her pull-up (refer to above bit in parentheses).  DSCF5754 This is her thumbs up:DSCF5755 I think part of her difficult-ness is because of the potty training and the new independence she has.  It was pretty cute though.  The first few days she was potty training, when she had to pee she’d gasp and exclaim, “I have to potty train!”  Then she’d run up all on her own, close the door, go, wipe, yell at me when I tried to come in, and flush all by herself.  DSCF5756 So she’s started to now get up at night again over and over and won’t stay in bed until about 10:30 until she’s completely exhausted and falls asleep on the floor.DSCF5863 She also tries to convince me that she can do her own hair already.  She put my clip in and yelled proudly, “Mom!  Look!  I’m pretty!”DSCF5699DSCF5700 She saw my painted toes this morning and said, “We have to paint mine too!”  When some of the nail polish came off, she told me tonight, “My nails aren’t polish.” She tries to even talk about moving to Grantsville by Grandpa Hurst.  She talks about him more than any other person, after Dillon, of course:).  DSC_0203 She convinced the babysitter that she could sleep with the boys…DSCF5677 She LOVES her brothers and won’t listen to a word I say unless they obey me, too. DSC_0082 Which means she loves anything they love and does anything they do. They really are terrific big brothers to her.  She’s a lucky girl.  And they LOVE her so much, too. DSC_0136 Like I said, she gets out of bed a lot.  Here are some things she likes to do when she gets out of bed:DSC_0188 DSC_0208DSC_0196 DSC_0215 DSC_0200 DSC_0202 She’s been insisting to wear her cowgirl boots everywhere.  If Dillon asks if she’s a princess, she’ll quickly disagree and say, “No!  I’m a COWgirl.” DSC_0129DSC_0157DSC_0158DSC_0159DSC_0162 She’s also just made up an imaginary friend named Mary.  Sometimes there are two Mary’s.  Mary sits in Bailey’s carseat so she doesn’t have to.  Bailey is a caring friend and will buckle her up and when I tell her to get buckled, she’ll say, “No!  Mary is sitting there!”  If I say Mary is sitting in the seat next to her, she’ll say, “No, there are lots of Mary’s.  One Mary is sitting there.”  She also yells at me when I try and close the van door, telling me that Mary didn’t get in yet.  DSC_0055DSC_0065

Memorable Moments June 2015

~Ruby says "Thank You" when you give her anything. Except it's more like "Day Oooo." I love it. She's also trying harder to say please (or Peeeeze) for things she wants. What a polite little girl :).

~Yesterday Bailey came down with the Clone Trooper costume on, which is 4 sizes too big I'm pretty sure, and her bull horns on. It was awesome. And sums up this girl pretty darn well.

~Carson told us that he was the laughing stock of Primary on Sunday. He meant to say the Class Clown :).

~Devon's so funny these days. If you catch him doing something he shouldn't be, he gets an innocent little smile and then starts rolling his eyes everywhere except looking at you. :)
