Things we love about Piper

Here are some the top things we love about Piper in no particular order.

• Almost on a daily basis Piper cracks us up with the things she says.
• Piper is friendly and sociable.
• Piper loves reading books.
• Piper definitely takes after us and our respective families. She acts just like I did as a kid, and her Grandma Vicki and Great-Grandma Dody too.
• She loves to sing but if you try to sing with her, she usually says, "shh Daddy," or "shh Mommy," because she wants to sing, not us.
• Piper is very polite. You hardly have to remind her to say please and thank you. Even when she's upset, she'll still say "no, thank you" even though she's got a grumpy face.
• Piper wakes up quickly and pretty happy, unlike her mother.
• Piper loves to help. She sets the table by putting the silverware and napkins on the table. She likes to clean too but mostly dusting and vacuuming. Cleaning up her toys or books is another issue altogether.
• Following in her mother's footsteps, Piper likes to cook. Whenever I'm in the kitchen, she runs and tells me, "I help you," and proceeds to get a chair to push up to the counter.
• Piper is mostly a good sleeper, though while traveling she gets very clingy and isn't as good of a sleeper.
