Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

Our little sweetheart turned 3 today! I can't believe that my baby is such a big girl. Here are some fun things about Kaitlyn:
  • She reminds me of my little sister because she loves to make people laugh.
  • She speaks very well and has a great vocabulary. Everywhere we go people are impressed with how well she speaks.
  • She hates getting her eyes wet. This definitely impedes her swimming ability.
  • She loves singing. I'm the worst singer and have a hard time remembering songs. Since I'm in Primary I'm constantly trying to teach her the songs and she always picks them up quicker than I do.
  • Katy is constantly reading. I'm amazed at how I can read her a book once and she has most of it memorized the next time we read it.
  • She loves hiding under blankets from something or someone called "king lion"
  • She's a very thoughtful little girl.
  • She needs a band aid every time she bumps her arm or has any kind of "ouchie"
  • If she smells anything, whether it's good or bad, she says "what's that smell" in an incriminating way that makes you feel so self conscious. For example, I'll put on some perfume and she'll say "what's that smell" in such a way that somebody might think I haven't showered in weeks.
Here are a couple of funny things Katy has said recently.

-We're playing with her new friend at the pool and they are arguing over a ball. Katy splashes the little girl in the face. I reprimand her and then here is our conversation:
A: Kaitlyn, do you have something you want to say to Hadley? (Meaning I want her to say sorry)
K: Yeah, Hadley stay away from my ball!

-We're changing the kids after swimming and they are both naked.
K: Hadley, you have a cute little bum! (Yes, I have told her that before and she obviously remembers)

-We were in a crowded Target the other day and I was buying nursing pads. I throw them in the cart with Katy and this is what she says in a very loud voice:
K: Mommy, are these for your boobies so that you can feed Lulu some milk? (I heard many people chuckling)

Anyway, here are some pics of the birthday girl. Her party isn't until next weekend so I'll post some more then.Since her party is next week we just made homemade ice cream and stuck a candle in it.

Her first trike

I love her little sayings! And her heightened sense of smell is pretty funny.
