Callie Beth is 2 and a half

Little Miss Callie Beth is half way to three!  Wow!  It is such a treat watching this little girl grow up.  Boy do we love this (not so little) girl.

  • She truly has such a big heart and wants to make everyone happy. 
  • She has TONS of energy and loves to be a little dare devil!  She loves to jump on and off couches and beds.  She really has no fear and loves to be a monkey and climb.  She loves to be swung around and upside down.  She plays pretty rough with Daddy.  This little girl definitely has some athletic ability. 
  • She is VERY independent
  • She loves her baby dolls and plays such a good mother to them.
  • She also LOVES her baby brother.  It is so sweet to see her light up around him.  She is affectionate to him and a great helper to Mommy. 
  • She honestly rarely throws fits.  Yes, she is a little stubborn but she handles situations pretty well these days. 
  • She loves peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, avocados, Mac & cheese, strawberries, granola bars, applesauce, eggs, and sausage.
  • She is a little too smart for us sometimes :)
  • She LOVES to read and be read to. 
  • She has a good mix of girly-girl and tom-boy in her.
  • She loves to run and play chase / tag.  She will actually ask for her “running shoes” and then go out and run laps in the drive way.
  • Her favorite show is still Dora the Explorer.
  • She helps unload the dishwasher, take clothes in and out of the dryer, folds clothes, and puts her own clothes away in her drawers. 
  • Lately, she is gathering (or we call hoarding) everything.  And there really is no way to know where things might be.  I have found juice and her phone in the back of the coat closest.  We couldn’t find a pair of her shoes and it turns out they were inside Jake’s shoes.  The list can go on and on.  But when it is bedtime and she asks for something particular to sleep with, it usually means we might be looking awhile.
