Growing by the minute

Jordan enjoyed a long weekend with her Grandma and Poppy in town. Along with all kinds of attention, she got her hair trimmed a bit. It was only her second haircut ever!!

We’ve seen an increased drive for independence — Yesterday Jordan threw her first SOLID tantrum in the middle of Target. She would not let me help direct the stroller that she was pushing (I should have never let her get out of the that thin!). Obviously one and a half arms aren’t that great at pushing a stroller in a straight line… and I wanted to get in an and out of the store. We had already spent a couple of hours snacking and reading books with friends at a bookstore. But Jordan wouldn’t let me touch the stroller — It got bad enough that I strapped her screaming, tantruming body into the umbrella stroller and just let her SCREAM! Cam and I tried to giggle about it — What else can you do? But MAN! “My do it! My push! My srow-wer! (that’s how she says “stroller”) She solidly independent. I won’t change a thing about that.

She is amazing to watch — That little fire in her personality is going to carry her far.
