What Will She Be?

Lately we have be wondering what Millie will be when she grows up. She LOVES to play with her stuffed animals. She will sit contently forever outside and play with dirt/sticks/leaves. The latest is her love of food. Almost everyday Millie wants to "I want to butter the bread." One day a few weeks ago I let her help me "butter the bread" for her grilled cheese sandwich. Now she wants to do it constantly. And we can never stop there. We always have to make an entire grilled cheese sandwich. She loves to put on the cheese and put it on the stove to cook. Well last night I cooked her an egg. Today we had to "butter the bread" and "crack an egg." First she helped me make the grilled cheese and then she wanted me to "open the refrigerator" and "crack an egg." So then we fried an egg. This was at 3:00 in the afternoon. Then she watched them both cook on the stove at the same time and she did eat them both afterwards. So lately we think she may want to be a chef when she grows up. I think she is going through a growth spurt with all that she is eating. She ate 2 whole waffles, a banana and juice for breakfast. A whole PB & J, cranberries and drink for lunch and then the grilled cheese and egg for an afternoon snack.

Spring at the Playground

Millie had a fantastic time at the playground. This year she loves to climb everything and go down all of the slides. Last year she would not go down any of the slides or climb anything. It is so much fun to watch her explore and be able to do lots of new things.
