Sweet Suzarooni

Suzy had her four year well check last week. I'm guessing she is pretty average since I never did get her stats. I may weigh and measure her tomorrow, just for fun.

We've been having lots of fun lately. This is thanks in part to a book recommended by Tsh , called Your Four Year Old, that I will write more on later. She loves watching Curious George and doing anything silly. She no longer naps, so we are in bed early and up early at our house.

Her favorite color is pink and she has a heart of gold. She loves counting the money in her piggy bank and when you ask her what she will buy, she will tell you "things for you, and Andy, and Daddy!" I honestly think she really would. She continues to amaze me with her sensitivity to other's needs. She offers drinks, band aides, lovies, and snacks often. She is pretty independent with all of her own care. When she sees an emergency vehicle, her first response is to see what kind it is followed by a request to pray for those involved. She likes to "balance" as pictured below and she likes crafts as long as there is no expectation. what. so ever. of the outcome.

Her latest obsession is impromptu Mad Lib stories involving Curious George and a little girl named Suzy. Her outfits can often be comical. We are currently in another pajama phase that she likes to dress up with necklaces and hats. Notice the lack of shoes. Apparently, they are no longer needed.
We both adore this sweet hat from Mamaw. I'd love to find her a few more of these that are a little more "Springy". I just think Suzy looks so cute in hats.
I love this photo. I love it because the dress is way too short but she insisted upon wearing it. I love it because she made up a game of sitting on the Yoga blocks. I love it because she was determined that she was going to sit on ALL the blocks, even though there was a large risk they would topple. I love it because it shows her little scratched up, banged up, bruised little legs that are a result of many previous balancing attempts that did not turn out so well.
This shot is from the clinic. She actually got up that morning, put on some cute clothes, and then decided to change into this garage sale night gown right before we left the house. My OT peers are way cooler in the fashion world than I am. Suzy helped me drive that point home this morning. She even took the barretts out of her hair for that shag look. ;)
