As any little girl would, Natalie really enjoys anything having to do with dolls/family/princesses in a house (castle). She refers to the individual characters as "mommy," "daddy," and "baby." Even with the animals printed on her drinking cups. It's adorable! These characters have also been known to eat, go shopping, dance, sleep, hug, and kiss.
I'm also enjoying the fact that her hair is long enough now for me to braid it! So cute!
Here she is getting squirted by the tortoise on the splash pad at the Phoenix Zoo.
The Three Amigos! Good thing these girls' parents like to have an excuse to get together, too! :)
After seeing how much Natalie enjoys putting on oversized shoes, mittens, and hats, I threw a bunch of clothing items and accessories into a drawer for her to play "dress-up" at her leisure. Here is one of her ensembles:
She often likes to play with the faucet at the sink while we get ready in the morning, walks around in my shoes, uses the hairdryer, and tries to get her hands on my hair pins/clips, make-up brushes, ... you name it. It can get really annoying at times, but I try to remind myself that she probably wants to be just like me and do all the things mommy does. :)
This tutu is too too cute!
Her sleeping habits are getting better. She now gets in bed by 7:30, and (on a good night) falls asleep by 8:00. Unfortunately, she still wakes up around 6:00am, but to accommodate, she has lengthened her naps to 3 hours in the afternoon. So even though she has lost an hour of sleep in the evening, she has added it to her nap time. And I am okay with that. :)
