Macy!

I’m long overdue for a post about Macy. She is 3 and a half and growing up so much. Preschool has been great for Macy. She loves going, and seeing her friends. She has learnt so much, and her vocabulary grows daily.
Some fun things about Macy:
Favorite foods: Still cheese and yogurt, but she is better now about eating rice, and noodles, and carrots. Right now she is into chocolate pudding, and has actually started liking ice cream!

Favorite toys: She has loved playing with the miniature princess set she got from Grandma Cutts at Christmas. She plays with them usually first thing in the morning, and during quiet time. Belle and Cinderella are her favorite. She is also into playing with her lego princess and lego horse. The lego princess is usually called Princess Bala (from the movie ‘Ants’), and the horse is usually Bulls Eye (from ‘Toy Story’). She still has a great imagination, and plays a lot with her hands. She has regularly been sleeping with her Dora doll, from which we all get a hug and kiss from at night, and occasionally says the bedtime prayer.

Favorite songs: ‘Strangers Like Me’ from Tarzan, ‘Want Something that I Want’ from Tangled, and ‘Let if Go’ from Frozen. She loves to have music put on and runs around the living room dancing and singing along, she knows a lot of the words. She has great dance moves, especially when she ‘wiggles her booty’!

Favorite movies/shows: Frozen, Gnomeo and Juliet, Strawberry Short Cake: Land of Dreams, Despicable Me.

Favorite daily activities: Loves to go to the library. She has been participating in an unparented library class every Thursday and learns fun rhymes while there. Our library is awesome, and there is a great play area that we spend time in after her class. She loves going to any indoor playground (spring can`t come soon enough), and next year I am definitely getting a pass, which will be much more economical. She is great at playing with Rachel, and making sure she is happy, and is very protective of her. She enjoys colouring, and playing with playdough.

Favorite sayings: `I got this.` 'I`m on it.' 'So here`s the problem.'  'Listen Dad,'  'Don`t look at me!'

Fun moments: The other night she read us all a book. She had the book in front of her, and even a toy as a prop. She made up a story using three different story lines from three separate books. It was very entertaining and thought out. We were totally impressed.
She has also started praying all by herself. Usually we are blessed to be nice to everyone, and that we can do everything, and that we won`t die.
She likes to pretend play, where we go to the castle to get married, either by boat, or rocket ship. She will marry anyone... we need to work on her standards!
She`s already been to two birthday parties (both for friends at preschool). I can`t believe she is already at that age. 
We are so excited for the summer, and for fun outside, and to see what this creative girl will come up with next!
