1. She absolutely LOVES school. Saturday morning she said "Mama am I going to school today?". "Not today, it is Saturday". "Oh man, but I love my friends at school". Every time we drive by a "big kid" school she asks if she can go, the kid can't wait to go to kindergarten. Hopefully that won't change :)
2. She loves swimming lessons too! She "practices" at home, kicks and moves her arms in her bed to swim up to her pillow. She usually has her suit on by 9am, her class is not until 10:30a.
3. Her favorite song is "Somebody" by Goyte - you know the one that is always playing on the radio? She can sing he whole thing.
4. She is obsessed with popsicles but her favorite food right now is french toast. We make it every Saturday morning. She also loves going to jamba juice. Obviously she loves the juice but I think she really just loves the whole experience. Whenever she convinces me to take her after school (which is often) she will say "let's sit mommy" so we grab a seat and chat about our day. I think it is like her happy hour :)
5. She has a crazy memory and sense of direction. Sometimes I wonder if she has a degree of a photographic memory. We could be driving someone we haven't been for a year and she will remember exactly where we are and can recite every detail of the time we went to the destination. The other day we went swimming with baby Sophia who was wearing one of her suits she wore before she was 1 year old. "Hey that was my suit?!"
6. She can count to 40 and write probably 15 different letters and can write her name.
7. "Mama I have to go poo poo. Wait, no, I just had to fart".
8. She is a beautiful dancer and loves music. She can also play catch, hit a golf ball and whack a whiffle ball with a tennis racket across the whole backyard. I think she is going to be both a performer and an athlete.
9. We have slowly but surely watching every fraggle rock episode that was ever produced thanks to Uncle Marc!
10. She likes to take pictures of her babies with her camera. Wonder where she learned that from? :)
11. She pretends to call her friends on her phone and ends each call with "love you".
12. Josh has grown his beard out again and this is what Emmy had to say about it. "Daddy you have mustache all over your face." "What you don't like it?" "No you need to shave it".
You can't let a little sand in your mouth ruin your day!
Emmy made herself at home at Josh's desk with her own computer.
