mental notes...

(pre valentines day pics)

so adyson learns things VERY fast. here is a list of some of the things she does. (for my sake, i'm pretty sure i wont remember this in 10 years, i have a horrible memory!!!)

-adyson love to help me sweep. we acquired a new broom from the subletters we had last year, and it was actually broken, so we made it a little bit shorter and made it "adyson" size. whenever i sweep she has to get her broom too and help. i remember seeing a picture of me when i was her age doing the exact same thing, so i'm pretty sure she gets it from me. wish i had the pic with me

-adyson knows how to use the remote to the tv, and also the buttons on the tv. she can turn it on, turn it up, and change the channel. she doesnt really know what shes changing it to, she just does it. its really funny/annoying because she will shut the tv off when we are playing wii and she will turn around and laugh. she also knows how to use the wii remotes.

-adyson is my own personal maid. when its time to change her, she will go get a diaper, sometimes get me the wipes, and then after spencer or i are done, she will take the diaper to the trash. sometimes she takes stuff thats not trash, like a picture frame that i noticed was missing one day.... found it under some trash in the garbage.

- adyson talks all the time. she says.....yes or "yeah", no, mom, dad, grandma/pa, auntie, uncle, amber, hi, bye, and many more words. the newest word is Jesus! and she also makes many animal sounds, her favorites are a lion and a dog.

- our little girl gives hugs (some what bear hugs), kisses, blows kisses, waves, tickles, writes with a pen (kinda), opens a water bottle, reads books (she loves books), dances ("shake it"), trys to jump, wipes her hands and face, shows us how old she is, points to her nose and such, points to her family in pictures, know where the picture of jesus is in her room, folds her arms and says amen during prayer...

adyson is such a fast learner! we are currently working on her ABC's and some first word flash cards. we love her so much and i hope that when she askes me about when she was little, that i'll remember that i wrote this for that very purpose! hope you liked hearing this too!
