my little zion olivia

last night i caught a glimpse of the baby i once had that has changed into a big girl that is very bossy, much like her mom! after her bath i had her sitting on my bathroom sink (in the dry) to blowdry her hair. she had her sippy cup in her mouth drinking it and her "sovey" (blanket) in her had and she was "soving" it (rubbing the silky stuff together). her eyes were about half closed and she just looked so very sweet! right now with all the whining and bossyness and fits being pitched and temper tantrums...etc.... i had forgotten what a sweetie pie she can be! also the other day she was needing a nap and we were having a fight about the fact that she was going to have to lay down by herself, i told her that it would be ok cause she was big and all the way at 4 (which is what she says to me all the time when i am telling her she is my baby) then she informed me that she was not big she was a baby "i have been tricking you all along" i really like this little girl.... i think i am keeping her!

That is so sweet. Noelle is going to be five this month, and she is still strong-willed, but likes to throw that "tricking you" thing out too. This morning she was fixin my hair (beautiful I have to say! - about 50 barrettes!), and she walked away to watch Dora and told me she was done with me. So I said Noelle, go put the stool up now since you're done. She frowned and said, "I was just tricking you". Yeah, either that or she just didn't want to put the stool up! :-) Zion sounds so precious. I bet she keeps her big brothers on their toes!
