Funny Molly things....

This is a no-photo post... just full of the funny things Molly is saying, doing and thinking. She is going through a very easy and sweet period right now- she stopped fighting me on every. little. thing!!! It has been nice! She is still completely consumed by princesses. Obsessed. Loves them. Lives in half reality, half princess land! She has declared she is also a princess and she will be Cinderella for Halloween. I get the biggest kick out of watching Kyle play princesses with her- he is getting good at it!

Molly LOVES the tv show Caillou. LOVES it. She loves to talk about the characters, sing the song, etc.

Molly pretends to know the words to everything- songs, tv shows, the next sentence that is going to come out of my mouth, etc. It is so funny! She will just kind of mutter things under her breath and then shout the words she does know... looking at us all the time to make sure we are impressed she knows all the words!

Molly loves her friends. She talks about them all the time. Wants to be with them all the time. I think she is so so so blessed to already have real friends. She also loves their moms and talks about them to.

This is the age of questions... "what is that?" "What is he doing"  "Where is it going" "what does this say".... etc, etc. Gets exhausting, but I know she is learning and absorbing all the answers, so I try to be very patient... even after answering for the 12th time that the grass is not really doing anything, just hanging out in the ground.

Molly is truly obsessed with Target. Mainly because the majority of her princesses came from Target. She asks to go to Target all the time, and will even ask random people to take her. If you start driving in the general direction of Target, she will get so excited, and then crushed if you start driving a different direction. I LOVE Target, too.. so this is fun for me, but we have to get out of the habit of getting her a princess item each time we go. Whenever you ask her what she wants to do, she replies, "how 'bout Target, Mommy!"

Molly's second favorite place is Claire's. Yes- the cheap-o accessory store in the mall where we all got our ears pierced. They have an entire back wall dedicated to princesses... enough said.

Molly got out of her crib yesterday. She never tried before. I was running errands, but Kyle was in the front yard talking to a neighbor during her nap, and all of a sudden, the mail slot popped open form the inside and Molly said "I want to see Caillou, Daddy"... he was shocked! She hasn't done it since and are hoping it was an isolated event. I am SO not ready to give up the crib. No way!

Molly is so so so excited for VBS! We listen to the CD constantly, and she knows all the words and most of the motions. She chants "VBS, Little Crocs" all the time (theme is Crocodile Dock!) and can't wait to get her VBS t-shirt! 

Molly is very into weddings and getting married. All of her princess stories end with them marrying their prince. She also loves to look at y wedding photos and hear our wedding song (Marvin Gaye, Let's Stay Together:)) . So now she talks about how she is going to get married in a blue dress and she is going to marry: Daddy, Prince Phillip (sleeping beauty's prince) or Milam. She is going to dance with them ,kiss and then ride away on a yellow horse!

She spends her days: playing outside, playing with princesses, swimming, doing sidewalk chalk, having tea parties, helping me with chores, dancing to music, going on walks, reading books, playing (or attempting to play) games like hide and seek, tag and red light green light, playing with Little People, playing with her Snap n' Style dolls, taking care of baby dolls and just being the most precious baby girl in the whole wide world.

Time is just moving way too fast and I wish I could freeze time. I HOPE I can remember all of these wonderful little memories... she is so much more than I ever could have dreamed of.
