Lydia...3 1/2 years old!

Lydia is 3 1/2 today; she seems more and more like a little girl and less and less like a baby. She has a strong, bubbly personality, loves to smile, gives great hugs and can brighten up anyone's day in an instant. On the flip side, if she's not happy, she can be kinda mean. Like pulling hair, pinching, and scratching. She loves to talk, is super excited about starting school, helps me with all my chores, and is finally starting to figure out how to play by herself! 

Sleeping: Lydia sleeps on the bottom bunk in a room with Haleigh. She still sucks on her two fingers and needs her blankie to go to sleep, but once she's asleep, she sleeps all night, usually from about 7:45pm-6:30am-ish. She naps at the babysitters house but when she's home with me she rarely sleeps anymore. Even just having a quiet time is a struggle! 

Activities: Lydia loves doing anything that her sisters are doing. She loves going to the park, coloring, helping me clean, playing Candy Land, and snuggling with Shelby. Sometimes she will sit and do puzzles, read books or play legos but usually someone else has to be doing it too! We started a preschool gymnastics class this past week and she loves it! 

Clothing: Lydia is wearing 3T clothes, but she will also occasionally pick something out of her sisters' closet and decide to wear that for the day. She picks out her own clothes every day and is able to get herself dressed, although she usually puts things on backwards. She has a few favorite outfits, like her flower pants, tank tops, and any sort of dance outfit. Lydia has been fully potty-trained for several months now and loves picking out what panties she is going to wear.
