November Wrap Up

The month of November has really gotten away from us. We had a great Thanksgiving with all of our family at various times during the last week. Paisley had a rough weekend of being sick last weekend, but is now feeling much better. Here's what Paisley is up to day-to-day (mostly things that mommy and daddy want to remember at this stage):
-Pais just turned 28 months this week and still only weighs 26 pounds. She's just as tall as ever.
-She has started using phrases like "you know what" and then proceeds to tell you a story. Or "actually, ...".
-She frequently will suggest an alternative when you offer her something she doesn't really want or you ask her to do something she doesn't want to do. She'll say "how 'bout..." and then give you her most superior suggestion.
-She loves school and is very excited to go every time.
-She is still not interested in potty training. Mentally, she is very aware of all the details, but has not one single desire to actually do it. I've even prepared "treat" jars with play-doh, markers, stickers, new crayons, and other "crafty" things and she won't even consider it. Ah, it'll come in good time.
-She loves crafts. And, for some reason, she thinks "crafts" is "craps". So, that's worth a good laugh from us every time she says it. I have been trying to correct her, but the f-t sound is very tough for her right now.
-Her favorite song to have us sing before she goes to bed at night is Jesus Loves Me.
-She is sleeping like a champ in her big girl bed now & we have absolutely no problems. Her "set up" includes a turtle that projects stars onto the ceiling, and the light has to be orange. She also has to have the radio on and the fan on. She needs her 'froggy' and her purple blankie.

We spent Thanksgiving morning at the Ft. Worth turkey trot & she had a blast. We had the Harbords and Papa Mike over for the rest of the day. It was a blast - a lot of cooking, but a lot of fun. Today, we took Paisley to the Christmas Tree Farm in Terrell and it was just perfect. Paisey had a great time picking out her own little tree and we ran around and had fun for an hour or 2 before we headed back home. Pictures to follow in seperate post...
