Zoe - 2014 School Year

Date: August 25, 2014
Weight: 20lbs
Height: Taller than I want her to be :)
Sleeping: Goes to bed at 8pm, up at 7-8am
Eating: Not much - how does she stay alive? She loves "new-new" (noodles), fwuit-cups, "staw-wa-da-bed-ees" (strawberries), ice chips, ice cweam, rice, beans and corn. She doesn't care too much for chicken or beef unless it has sauce or is mixed in with something else.
New things this month: Asking to poo-poo-potty. Lots of new words and 3-4 word phrases.
Diapers: Size 5...but may be switching to pull ups very soon.
Clothing: 2T with a few 18-24 month stragglers that are too cute to pack away just yet.
Shoes: Size 5. She adores the Havianna flip flops that Duffy brought back from his first trip to Brazil and she loves wearing all shoes: Julah's, Mommy's, Daddy's...anyone who visits and takes their shoes off.
Facial Expressions: Rolls eyes, tilts chin down and will look at you through her eyelashes like she's mad (but she's not - she's just playing).
Eyes: Brown. My sweet brown eyed girl.
Hair: Brown with curly ringlets. The ringlets are tighter and fuller in the back of her head than they are on top.

Obsessed with: Baby dolls and real babies. When she sees one in a store she points and yells "Baby! Baby!" in the same way that I might yell "Ryan Gosling! Jen Hatmaker!" When she sees a baby she loves to be close to them, hold their hands or feet, and talk to them. She is so gentle and loving.

Doesn't care for: Dogs. She loves to spot a dog, watch them, and even get close to them if someone is carrying her...but the second she is face-to-face with them she starts screaming.

Play: Zoe loves playing with her baby dolls. She'll carry them around the house, push them in the stroller, put them in the high chair and feed them, then lay them down on a pillow, cover with a blanket, and pat their backs till they go to "sleep". She also enjoys blocks, putting shapes into the holes they fit in the bucket, dancing to her favorite songs, and coloring (walls, furniture, paper...it's all good). Not too crazy about the swimming pool although she loves playing with toys in her smaller baby pool.
