Things that Bother

Things that bother Natalie lately:
  1. A drop of water on her outfit. It doesn't matter what it is, she wants a new piece. If it is a shirt, she wants a new shirt. (Too bad this doesn't help potty training!)
  2. Socks that are not lined up with her toes. I know, I don't like this either.
  3. Not always being able to choose her outfit. She wanted winter things when summer arrived. Now, she wants to wear summer things. Today I just put on a sweater over her short sleeves & moved on.
  4. Food moving off her plate. She is doing better with utensils, but sometimes a piece of food gets misplaced. She especially doesn't like it on the table. I have to keep a sponge to wipe it off. Of course, if it hits her outfit, we go back to #1.
  5. One of her animals falling off the bed. I try to sneak & put away animals so that this is less likely to happen, but one night she woke me up because Elmo fell off the bed.
  6. She is very aware of characters being "scared." Elmo had a video when he was scared, Junior Asparagus, and she is aware of these feelings.
  7. She seems to be more timid of the dark. We keep a nightlight anyway, so this isn't much of an issue unless she moves into a room that does not have the light.
  8. She is getting better, but she used to want my full attention, even if she is watching a video. She went through a stage where she wouldn't let me leave!

These are some growth changes that I know will change as she does. She is doing great with hugs, loving, trying to help out, playing by herself, imaginative play. It is a really fun stage to watch her grow!
