Ali is Three today!
She is hilarious and so smart!
What I want to remember about Ali right now:
Size 3T
Shoe size:7
Favorite foods: yogurt, mac and cheese, chicken, and M&Ms.
Least favorite: Things with weird textures/ fish
Favorite Toys: Farm animals, Peppa Pigs, playing play-doh, doctor/vet with her stuffed animals and coloring with markers
Favorite book: Ferdinand the Bull, Five Little Monkeys, and Peppa books
Favorite shows: Peppa, Paw Patrol, Doc McStuffen
She loves her sister and wants to do everything she is doing. Caroline is a great big sister to her. At night they stay up and talk and play (waaaay past their bedtime)
Funny things Ali does:
She wears Pjs under her school uniform every day to school. She likes her striped pants and rocket pants and if she HAS to wear regular shirts she wants her "Dory" shirt or "rocket" shirt.
When someone does something forgetful (like not shutting a door or can't find something)
She says "I worry about Y'all"
and then shuts the door or helps us look for our item.
She will not sleep in her own bed: She sleeps in the sleeping bag on her floor or in Caroline's bed.
She still sleeps with a sound machine and her bird "B" (Blanket) and she likes to tuck her stuffed animals in at night.
She crosses her legs when she watches TV
She really says the funniest things! Yesterday I asked what she wanted to do for her birthday and she told me "Eat a hotdog!" and started laughing.
She still says "Mom, I hold you" when she wants me to hold her.
She is the class clown and gets in trouble in school for talking.
a band-aid can fix anything in Ali's eyes
She is very strong-willed and will be a great leader someday. She is protective of the people she loves. She is constantly learning, is so smart and hilarious. She does not stop talking until she is asleep.
Chris and I love her so much!
For her birthday Dad and I took her to 50th Street Caboose. As a Lubbock-ite I'm embarrassed to say I had never been here. It was really fun! We went early and beat the crowd.
The staff sang Happy Birthday to Ali. She proudly stood up in her chair as everyone sang to her.
Caroline after the singing said "That embarrassed me that everyone was looking over here." Ali didn't mind at all.
Ali got a $10 gift card from the caboose staff and Caroline got $10 for making all "A"'s on her report card from the staff.
Funny thing is Caroline hit the 1000 ticket jackpot.
She was pumped! Chris had to sit there for over 5 minutes to collect tickets. There was crowd standing around watching.
Working the claw machine. It was fun!
Ali picked out her birthday present on Saturday and wanted me to take her picture with Chase. Silly girl!
