Laneah had her 4 year old check up and here are her stats:
Weight: 38.9 lbs; 75%
Height: 41 1/4 in; 75%
*She loves piggy back rides/horse rides and asks for them multiple times a day. Laneahisms:
*"do you love me when .....(anything and everything you could imagine)?" She will ask this question multiple times a day.
*debil- Devil.
*"Wouldn't it be cool if.....(let your imagination run wild; she certainly does)"
*rats nest. One day when I went to brush Laneah's hair it was even more tangled than usual and I said "wow Laneah, your hair is a rat's nest". Her eyes went really wide and she asked "I have rats in my hair?" Jumping on the opportunity since Laneah makes it very difficult to brush her hair I told her that it was a rats nest and if I didn't brush it out, rats would make it their home. Maybe that was bad, but it worked then and it still does.
New and current things:
After a couple tries we decided to make it a contest and got more animals to add to it.
*She is showing a strong interest in math- I was trying to explain why when you add any number to zero, it remains the same number. I said if we have zero apples and 1 banana do we have any fruit? Then I asked her if we had any apples and she said, its ok, we just have go to the store and buy some!
*Laneah is doing much better at tracing letters and patterns and is definitely a lefty.
*She likes all of the Leap Frog movies and I do too. They are so educational.

My kids and I are both still laughing at the video with the fan. I had to replay it 3 times. Her giggle is the best. You're such a fun mom! It looks like her energy level is still as high as always...wouldn't have it any other way. :)
She is so special! I don't think any one but me sees how gifted she is.( maybe other Nana's feel that way with their grandchildren)I will never forget after Christmas when you were all getting ready to leave and she was cuddled up to me and she said "Nana I have to go home but I don't want you to be sad." I told her I would miss her but I would try not to be sad. Then she made me promise her that I wouldn't cry when she left, So I promised her. Then I said to her that I didn't want her to be sad. She looked up at me with those big blue eyes and said "but Nana I will be sad," I reminded her how happy she would be to see her friends and play with her toys. I told her that I wanted her to promise me she wouldn't cry for me or be sad. She put her little arms around my neck and hugged me tightly and said" Nana I can't promise you that, because I know I will miss you and cry for you." She has such a beautiful spirit!!! What a great blessing it is to have her in my life!
