wow!!!! Nic, I just love reading your journaling! I wish I was as good at it as you!!! I just need to sit down and let it flow I guess!!! super layout!
Those are just the cutest "piggies" ever. Love the gray background that really makes your daughter pop from the page. Little ones change so fast that you forget the little things and journaling like this is a great way to preserve those memories!
I LOVE this journaling! Awesome! Your daughter sounds like a genius! :D I love what you did with this page, and I just love those "piggies"... so cute! Oh, and the shoes thing... so cute!
Nothing short of precious!!! I love reading all the things about her! I remember when Brooke started filling "2 and 3" after I said a very stern ONE! The first time she did it I died laughing. So wonderful that you document all this about her!! And don't you just love those papers??!!
Okay, her pigtails have GOT to be the cutest things EVER!!! I totally feel you on the wanting, but not really wanting to wean them away from "all things mom"!!
This is sooo wonderful. I love the journaling. Especially the part about her pig tails and her tantrums. Such a wonderful idea to journal about the little details of her life now.
your journaling is amazing!! these little things are very precious. when piper grows up she'll be happy to read this and she will be delighted to learn some things about herself when she was little. love this!
I remember back a long, long time ago when you said that journaling was hard for you and you wanted to get better at it, ok well you have come a long ways with that!! I mean seriously your journaling style now is amazing and so moving. Your details are fantastic too! I love love love this pic of Piper, it seems to really show her cute personality, her sense of humor and those adorable piggies! It kind of also makes me sad because I am trying to picture in my head the things you describe about her and I truly wish that we could live closer together so that our kids could grow up together and be great friends like we are!! This page is so incredible in every way possible!!!!
Love these new taylormade papers a touch of grey.. this was going to be a white page but I decided the grey worked too :) loooot's of journaling.. inspired by Amanda (thanks!) I thought it was a great idea to document where they are today. thanks for looking :)
Journaling- You are 19 months old. Today you can count to five. Which makes counting to three very frustrating at times. Every time I start with one you proudly announce 2! 3!! and then laugh and thinking you are so smart, but still without listening to the original request. You have taken an extreme liking to Dora and the dooblebops. You sing the songs constantly and it’s really cute. You also love Hercules and the Jungle Book but only when we are in the car since sitting still is not a strong point for you. You have this complete obsession with trains that is completely you, because no one in our house has ever thought twice about them. You love to talk on the phone and often come crying to me with the phone in hand asking to phone your daddy. When you are done talking you always hug and kiss the phone. You love Keean and always ask when it is time to go get him from school. You are one of the toughest kids I ever known you get hurt all the time due to your rough nature. But rarely slow down even when you are bleeding. You are crazy for fruit and veggie juice and go through way to much of it every day. Your favorite foods are tomatoes, cooked carrots, any fresh fruits especially grapes, strawberries and mangoes. You eat noodles every day and love them any way I make 'em.. plain, with cheese, with tomato sauce doesn't matter you are a pasta girl. You don’t like sour cream or potatoes unless they are french fries. You love shoes when I say love I mean obsessed.. you talk about shoes all the time and taking you into a store with a wall of shoes like an athletic store, is such a treat it makes you so excited. Speaking of treats I don't think there is a sugary anything you don't like.. if it's sweet you love it! You wear pigtails every day and I have you convinced its like clothes, you can’t go outside without them. Often you scream “I need my piggies” when you want to go outside. You can throw a ball farther than almost any kid 10 times your age and have a real knack for all things athletic including a weird fascination with sports on TV. You throw tantrums like I didn't know were possible. You have no idea what to do with kids your own age and anyone under 5 is a baby. I have never left you except with daddy for three hours while I get a haircut and I have literally had to wait several months for a time when daddy is home. You have an amazing sense of humor and really know how to make a joke which amazes me at this age. You have no lack of personality. You can say hundreds of words and when the doctor asked how many I said "ask her a new one and we'll add it to the list" this has been both a blessing and a curse. I love the way you pronounce "yes" you always have this very formal way of saying it. You love love love to dance. The way you shake your hips and say "oh yeah" always makes me laugh. You have a deep mothering instinct and you are always telling daddy and Keean to "get down from there" and "be careful". If only you would take some of that caution for yourself. You have already broken your collar bone and I am expecting the next one every second. You are crazy for all things mommy and I wish so bad I could ween you but love how much affection you show towards me. You are smart, beautiful and articulate already I can't imagine where you will be at 19 years but I know at 19 months you are off to one heck of a great start. I love you xoxox
