Jilly Martha

Jill continues to be such a funny and strong willed child. She loves to play pretend and seems to reenact every aspect of her life. She is always pretending to be the "mama" and her doll "pandy" seems to be really similar to Jill in real life. For instance, this morning she told me Pandy didn't get a bed time story because she refused to eat dinner. Speaking of that, Jill's latest thing is to wait until I am preoccupied then go throw her food in the trash so she doesn't have to eat it. Quite frustrating... I was making dinner the other night and she told me "that looks good- I hope I don't have to throw it in the trash."
Jill has 3 "sweethearts" (that is what she calls children).. Curious George, Pandy, and Tendy. She makes them take naps, feeds them, and makes them happy. In her mind the summation of my job as Cooper's mom is to make him happy when he cries- and that is what she does with her sweethearts. She loves Cooper and is always trying to mother him too.



















The other day we asked Jill want she wanted to be when she grew up and she said "a mama".. I then asked her if she would ever want to be a dentist like daddy. She thought about it for a second and quipped "uhh... I will do both!" Got to love that confidence!























She loves to try and take pictures. This is one of the better ones from her portfolio.
