Miss Mischievous

Like most other 3 year olds, this little girl keeps us on our toes. There is never a dull moment in our house. I wish I could remember all that is said and done each day by this little person because it could seriously make up the content for a sitcom. She takes us from utter frustration to sheer amazement to laughing hysterically in about 2.2 seconds. This girl is one of a kind and I am so thankful I get to enjoy her all day long.

You never know from day to day if she going to actually nap or just play and get into anything and everything in her bedroom during that 2 hour span. This day the nap was bypassed for some Berenstein Bears stickers that she decided to decorate herself and her friend, Frosty with. 

She was very proud of herself and Frosty. 

This was taken this morning at the dentist office. If you haven't experienced maybe a smidget of hell, go to the dentist with a one and three year old. The hygienist is one of our good friends and must have seen Olivia's name on the list for this morning because she already had ear plugs in her ears. Yep, it's just that bad. 

We talked about going to the dentist for days and even checked some books out at the library about going to the dentist but that didn't decrease the amount of screaming by one decimal. Of course, afterwards she talked about the strawberry toothpaste, the treats she got from the treasure box and how pretty her teeth were. We have our fingers crossed for turned tables in the next 6 months. But then we start all over with Ford. Glorious days.

Fridays are usually treat days around here so nothing less was expected by this one last Friday. She was good at Miss Wendy's house while we took Ford to the doctor so we ventured to the library and Gigi's cupcakes. It's not a hard job to please a 3 year old. 

She may be a handful at times but she is one good sissy to Ford. 

In this picture she is playing peek a boo from behind the couch with him.

 Many adjectives would describe this bouncy three year old and it's funny to me that mischievous, caring, helper, hard headed, stubborn, kind, humorous, lively and spontaneous all end up in the same sentence describing her.

 Man, I love her.
