Dedicated to You!

I feel like I have been posting a lot about Abbey, so I decided to dedicate this post to my sweet Makayla Jo. Here are a few fun facts:

1. Her nickname is JoJo
2. She has beautiful brown eyes
3. She has a red tint to her hair, that I LOVE and hope she keeps
4. She is getting darling curls in the back of her hair
5. She LOVES shoes. She is always grabbing a pair, and bringing them to me to put on
6. She loves being outside (probably why she loves shoes so much, when we put them on we usually go outside)
7. She has 8 teeth and is cutting her molars as we speak
8. She loves toothbrushes and toothpaste, but hates getting her teeth brushed
9. She loves the tub, whenever Abbey gets in in the morning, she has to also, even if she bathed the night before
10. She says mom, hi, papa, no, uh oh, and RJ (i know, it's hilarious) and babbles a whole lot of jibberish
11. I still rock her to sleep and I love it just as much as she does
12. She has to have a blanket with her bottle
13. She loves her blanket and her bottle
14. She never has liked binkis (and I tried...)
15. She looks exactly like her dad did at her age
16. She is ALWAYS smiling--
17. She shakes her head no, no matter what the question
18. She wakes up every night (almost) 30 minutes after she has fallen asleep and cries for about 20 minutes. (I've gone in, she does it in her sleep)
19. Abbey makes her laugh harder than anyone
20. She loves her grandparents...especially the grandpas
21. She loves dogs, and has no fear (so unlike her mother)
22. She likes to do what Abbey does
23. She is becoming quite a climber, and loves climbing up on the computer chair and pounds on the keyboards and throws everything off the desk
24. She likes to put sidewalk chalk in her mouth and look at me because she knows she shouldn't
25. She loves to scream at volumes and pitches that are not normal. And she gets a kick out of it.
26. She doesn't eat much-- except junk food and hotdogs (which she loves) she used to eat fruit, now she just smooshes it in her hands.
27. She loves veggies dipped in ranch dip-- okay, mostly the ranch dip, but some of the vegetable is bound to slip down her throat
28. She loves her mom, and if I'm around, no one else exists
29. She loves to see other kids her size and gets VERY close to them to say hi
30. She has the cutest pouty lip when she gets sad--it breaks your heart
31. She likes to pull Abbey's hair and pull on Abbey's bows and her own
32. She is very stubborn and usually won't stop crying until she gets what she wants. You try to hand her something else to satisfy her and she'll shove it away
33. She gets really clingy to me, when I need to get something done (like Abbey's hair, for example)
34. She loves books with flaps that she can open
35. She hates when her blanket covers her toes, while she is drinking her bottle
36. She is the cutest baby in creation!

Don't you just love how in love you are with your children? I do. I did this post more for me than anyone else, because I haven't written as much about her as I should, so now I've somewhat summed her up, and I'll have it forever.
