She's 3!!

Nonah Mae Wright is 3 years old. I am saying it and I know it but I am not really believing it. I remember her birth-day like it was yesterday. I remember preparing for her and the excitement of having our first baby and all the unknowns of what to expect. I remember the adjusting and struggles of that first year as parents and I remember the pure joy that we both got out of seeing our little baby make noises, then roll over, then crawl, etc, etc... This little girl amazed us, changed us, taught us, and has brought us soooo much joy.

And she still amazes and brings us so much joy. This little 3 year old is so sweet, so smart, so cute, and changing every day! She already has such a personality. She is strong willed, a little stubborn, creative, and already has an opinion that needs to be heard.

Noni loves to create things. She is really into doing crafts right now or coloring, drawing, stamping, anything. She loves being outdoors (as long as its not too hot, she didn't use to mind the heat but this summer she didn't handle it to well) Hiking and walking in the woods with daddy is probably one of her favorite things. Collecting things for her nature box. She has become very observant, she notices birds, bugs, leaves, all kinds of things and points them out to us. I love when she says, "mom its a beautiful day today."She loves running. Its fun for her to just run around the house 5 times in a row or more. Shes very active and is hard to keep up with.

Noni loves playing with her friends and cousins. She loves her sissy (yes I say sissy, don't make fun) and can't wait til she can actually play with her. She loves candy and all things sweet. She loves pickles and olives and would eat them at every meal. Oh and she loooves singing and dancing. She is always singing something even if she is just making up the words and shes always spinning or jumping saying "watch this mama watch this." She loves reading books. We go to the library once a week and pick out 5 or 6 books, and she loves story time.

We are so in love with her it hurts. So proud to be her mama!
