My Baby is now three (here she is at two). What a joy she is for our family. My nicknames for her are "dolly" or "monk" (short for monkey).
Baby is a sensitive soul and liberally bestows the balm of love and kisses on her family. I have been the beneficiary of hearing "I nuff you, mom" daily. Baby prances and dances through her day. She loves to read and be read to, declaring every book her favorite. She has discovered simple jigsaw puzzles, and enjoys coloring immensely. She loves her baby dolls, and enjoys dressing and feeding her charges. She is also our little drill sergeant. She is quick to tell everyone what to do, and how to do it. We're trying to discourage this tendency...but it is funny to hear a tiny voice encouraging me to speed up, slow down, or stop from the back seat as I drive around during errand day.
For her birthday I made both her and her dolly a new dress.
