Hola Amigos!

My child woke up a Spaniard this morning. The first thing out of her mouth was "Dora" (which quite honestly is always the first thing out of her mouth lately in the mornings). I hurried and got her dressed and as she's putting on her shoes I hear her saying "Uno, Dos, Tres, Cinco, Ocho". Are you kidding me???! She was counting in Spanish to herself! When the hizzle did she learn how to do that?! She had to have learned it from watching Dora so I guess TV isn't all bad for kids her age. :) Adios.

Little Stinker

Wynn has been turning into such a "kid" lately instead of a baby. Two examples:

- I was taking a bath the other night and Sam was watching her. She hit him (not an uncommon occurrence at this age unfortunately) and he held her hands and said "You do NOT hit daddy and mommy or Toosen (our dog Lucie). Hitting is NOT kind and will not be tolerated." She immediately started to tear up (with me she usually laughs at this discipline although I'm the "mean" one, go figure) and said "Sorry daddy, sorry mommy, sorry Toosen." Then she picked up her little chair, carried it over in front of the front door (where she gets her time outs, although they are not frequent) and sat herself in that little chair, facing the door, and said "NO HIT, sorry"!

- She was eating dinner with us the other night and she hit Sam (are you catching on that this happens every single day??). He sternly told her "NO hitting, it's not kind, OKAY???" while he was shaking his head NO. She looked him dead face in the eye, shook her head, nodding it to say YES, and said "Otay, Daddy, OTAY!" deadpan serious! We both just had to turn our heads and laugh. Otay Buttwheat.

I swear she'll be a teenager before I know it!

Our Florida Vacation!

So we had an absolutely fantastic time on vacation! We were in Orlando for three days visiting my Uncle Doug and Aunt Dani (two of my favorite people on the planet!)and then we drove to Daytona Beach to stay in their beach house for the four days. We cannot thank you enough for such hospitality and for being so generous to share your home (and your car!) and we love you guys!

We took Wynn to Disney while we were in Orlando and she absolutely loved it (of course I did too - Sam took me there on our honeymoon)! We got there right before the parade started and Wynn and I went out to dance. Check it out! *Dance Disclaimer: that is NOT how I dance! I was following the characters on the float * :)She also totally loved the beach and playing in the sand. I won't bore you with too many details but the kid (and her rents) had an absolutely fabulous vacation! Here's some pics!
