Roxy on her third birthday.
Our sweet Roxy is 3! She is just delightful! Really. This is the adjective I use most to describe her. I feel like she's been delightful since a few months before she turned two. She definitely has her moments (especially if you wake her from a nap), but really she is so agreeable and funny and happy and sweet.
Here are some things that she's up to / likes these days:
- Roxy uses her eyebrows a lot when she's talking. It's adorable and really fun to watch. But if I ask her to move her eyebrows she has no idea how to and intentionally blinks.
- Can pump herslef on the swing and is going slightly higher on the swing (still pretty low) which is fine. You do you. I think it's great that she knows what she wants and won't be swayed. Gonna be great for teen peer pressure.
- Says "I'm just little!" as an excuse for anything - when she can't do something or wants help or does something I told her not to.
- Loves "The Sound of Music"
- Can write her own name.
- Likes to color (can be pretty detailed about it when she wants to). Still hasn't ever drawn people.
- Still prefers to ride in the stroller
- Likes to ride her giraffe bike and scooter over the strider bike
- Her favorite piece of clothing is the "pink Ella dress." It's a dress that is torn but still wearable and Roxy calls it the pink Ella dress because it is pink and torn, just like Ella's dress after the stepmother tells her she can't go to the ball.
- Favorite foods are macaroni and cheese, cheddar cheese, Hawaiian haystacks, olives, and scrambled eggs.
- Pippa is her best friend. Roxy also thinks that all of Pippa's friends are her friends. Which is mostly true.
- Loves going to nursery at church
- Once or twice a day (outside of quiet time) Roxy likes be alone and just chill on her bed with her snuggle blanket.
- Would probably still nap everyday if we let her, but we recently decided that it's easier to deal with the 30 minute crankiness before bedtime than the one hour screaming after waking her from a nap.
