Piper is starting to push the limits on things. Before I felt like she was always doing what I asked but not now. She is definitely exerting her independence. She wants to buckle herself up in the car. She wants to dress herself. She wants to get her milk cups out by herself. The list goes on and go. I am constantly having to remind myself that I need to ask Piper if she would like to help or do it herself before I start doing it for her and she has a nervous breakdown. It is so interesting the little things that will set girls off. The crying is more than I can handle sometimes. The worst is when I am in a hurry and she refuses to let me get her dressed or buckle her up. I literally have to beg her to hurry up.
Piper is starting to be interested in watching some TV. We try not to let our kids watch a lot of TV but sometimes we just have to. Piper likes to watch what Pennington likes. Jake and the Neverland Pirates and Go Diego Go are the current favorites. After watching the shows the kids will pretend to be Jake and Izzy or Diego and Alicia. I will say I love the imaginative play that comes out of watching kids shows. It could go on for hours and hours. We currently have a permanent Bucky (Jake's pirate ship) in our house.
Piper is starting to be more and more interested in girl stuff. Princesses, babies, purses, etc. She loves everything that is pink or purple. I read somewhere that at this age little girls overdue the girly thing and I have to say that is totally true. She is constantly talking about how she is a girl and Pennington is a boy. She had determined what boys do and what girls do.
Today I took Piper to her first Baby Shower for my dear friend Matt Haller's first child. Piper literally said to me, "Mom you can't fit in a baby shower". I love that line. Below is a picture of Piper from the baby shower. Enjoy!
