Growing Up: June says "here go" when she hands you something. She says "no" very clearly and emphatically. She says lots of things now, but we haven't made sense of most of it. She refused a picture with Santa at Coop's preschool Christmas program. She is loving all things Christmas, especially the musical decorations and chocolate advent calendar.
Likes: wearing bows, coloring, reading, mommy, bouncing, swinging, seeing daddy come home from work, playing chase, being scared, climbing up and down stairs, being outside, handing things to you, putting a toy in and out of something (bag, box, etc), bringing you a book to read and sitting in your lap, bedtime book with daddy, waving, pointing at animals or pictures of animals, AIRPLANES (she can find the smallest ones in the sky. And if she hears one she will run all around to try to see it), washing her hands, bath time with cooper, going outside, drawing with chalk, finding bellybuttons, doing what cooper does when he does it, having the gas logs on, big leaf piles
Dislikes: being overtired, being still, getting teeth, "no", being hangry, having something taken away from her, not being able to get into the garage from outside, when she can't have everyone else's roll after she finishes hers, when she doesn't get what she wants when she wants it, when she has on clothes that don't allow her to find her bellybutton

June stayed with Nana and Papa (at home) so J and I could go to his work Chrismtas party. It was my first time leaving her at bedtime. She did great (probably better than mommy), and even slept all night!
