The Week You Turned 3 - Day 3

Today is day 3 – tomorrow is the big day – THE birthday. 3 years old. My oh my how time flies. Mommy is feeling especially nostalgic and emotional this week. Daddy just rolls his eyes at Mommy LOL.

Your quirks at age 3 – this is a fun one. . I think that in some way I am responsible for the quirks that you possess, but who knows. The things you insist on doing and the way certain things have to be done make me laugh.

You MUST be tucked in a certain way in your crib every night. Daddy usually puts you in and you have to then put your knees up while lying on your back; Daddy then gives you your giraffe friends (Argyle and Genevieve) and you tuck one under each arm (after Daddy puts the wrong one under each arm and you yell “HEY!” and switch them back), your taggie blankie must be laid out on top of you after Henrietta is placed on your tummy. Those are the musts, oftentimes you’ll add other friends to the mix, but those are the core ones. You also insist on 2 binkies at bedtime – one to hold and one to use.

After you brush your teeth at night you have to lock and then unlock the bathroom door twice (OCD much – wonder when I should worry about these behaviors)

Every night when we get home the first thing that happens is that your shoes and socks must come off – you are SO like me in that way – Mommy would rather be barefoot than anything else.

You prefer your food to be cut up into smaller pieces that you can get with a fork and you HATE having your hands dirty (this is Daddy’s influence, and I think it’s wearing off).
