Update on Little Miss Presley Girl

Presley is very inquisitive. She gets into everything! She has been talking up a storm lately and loves to get on the phone. Yesterday, she got on my iPhone and called my Grandma Cose...not on purpose, but she left a lengthy message. Her newest word is hi. It used to be hewwo, but she has since moved to just hi. Whenever she looks at herself in the mirror she says hi. Last night, Presley was eating her dinner when Joey got home from work. He went up to her and peaked his head over hers and she said hiya. At the grocery store today, the lady at the check out stand said, "well aren't you a sweetie pie" and out of nowhere Presley replied "thank gu." She is becoming more and more of a little person everyday and she just melts my heart.

She continues to eat well, nap well, and sleep well. She is teething and has another molar coming in. She now has a total of 10 teeth and she looks so grown up when she smiles. I was so excited to finally get into our new "fall routine" this past week. She is loving kindermusik, I really enjoy my Wednesday morning MOPS group, and my Thursday morning Beth Moore Bible Study group. All of the moms are very sweet and very involved. Presley did pretty good in her MOPPETS class and I was surprised that I did not get a call to come "pick up my screaming child." ;-) I am just keeping my fingers crossed that her separation anxiety will just mysteriously disappear once she reaches the 18 month mark...as everyone has told me it should. She is still doing great with room time, blanket time, and play pen time which is also providing me with some much needed "down time"...or should I say "cleaning time."

Presley loves Goose. When she wakes up in the morning, he follows me into her room and she always looks over my shoulder to say "goosey, goosey, goo." As we prepare for our walks in the morning, Presley makes sure that Goosey Goo goes with us. The whole time we are walking she will look over the side of her stroller to make sure Goose is walking beside her. Yesterday, it was pretty muggy outside and Goose started panting right away. Presley thought it was hilarious for some reason and started laughing. She then started to mimic him. She actually mimics him a lot.

She carries around stuffed animals in her mouth, she follows him under the table and goes under the chairs when he does. AND last week, he was drinking the water out of her tiny pool and she followed in doing the same thing.

It's actually a little concerning to me. Have you ever seen that movie from the 60's about the Great Dane who thinks he's a dachshund?? *sigh*
