the girl in the mirror...

I was watching Katie looking at herself in my little makeup mirror that she found on the counter. She also happened to pick up my blush brush. She always watches me put on makeup and loves my blush brush. Whenever I have it out she wants to use it. It mostly ends up in her mouth, but I think it is adorable.

So I was watching her looking at herself in the small makeup mirror and she was practicing her facial expressions...moving her eyebrows, blinking her eyes, moving her mouth in different shapes, putting her finger to her mouth and making the "shush-ing" sound, and even kissing the mirror.

I just sat there and watched her and realized what a big girl she is now. She will be 2 in the beginning of December, but she seems so much older than she is.

She definitely takes after her brother - she loves to sing, play the drum pads from our Rock Band set, pretend to read, look at pictures on the computer, dance around the house, and she loves, loves Disneyland. She has such a sense of humor and is fearless....really fearless (she climbs on everything!)

I realized how much I love my little girl as I watched her look at herself in the mirror. I mean I have always loved Katie, but at this moment I had a realization of just how much I love my "Pearl Harbor baby."

  1. She is adorable. It is funny to watch her in the nursery because she is so little, but acts so much older. You are doing a great job. She folds her arms and says the prayer, she sings the nursery songs and is such a big help. I love Katie!
