The Phifer Four: June 2008

Wow! Can you believe it? In 4 days we will have marked the halfway point of 2008. That is unbelievable. Time just seems to slip by without hesitation. For example, it seems like just yesterday, that I was anticipation the birth of our second child, Miss K. Now, in 10 short days she'll be celebrating her 3rd birthday. Seriously?!? 3 years already?

Miss K is so excited to celebrate her birthday. She's been talking about it for a while now. Her one request has always been that it's pink. Pink cake, pink ice cream....she'll all about pink. Also, that her friends and brother be there. Yes, she does include her brother on the list of invitees. It changes from day to day if she wants her parents there. =)

Her 3rd birthday will bring about a few changes. The first being, no more pacifier. We've talked to her about it & she sounds fairly confident in being okay with it. I just hope it's as easy as it sounds. I have a feeling without a "plug" we'll have to quiet her and her brother's chatter twice as much at bedtime.

The second is potty training. Ah, yes, the joy of training a child to use the toilet. We've been trying off and on for a year a half to get her excited about this venture. It's failed to fully caoture her attention though. I'm hoping with the arrival of being 3, she will get excited about being "big" and show an interest in the process.

My has my little girl grown. I'm SO proud of her.
