3 1/2

Our little girl is growing up way too fast! And there is no slowing her down, no matter how much I beg!  ;)

Jenna's favorite things: coloring, drawing, reading, attacking Paul, and dancing! She loves to have people watch her dance, and afterwards she'll take a bow, saying "thank you! thank you!".
But her absolute favorite thing, and what makes her giggle uncontrollably, is when Paul and I pretend to fight over her each night before bedtime. It's hilarious!

Speaking of bedtime, she has recently tried every method possible to distract us and postpone it. When we walk into the bedroom, she announces "It's a mess in here! Let's clean up!". While we're getting PJ's on, she'll point out random things, like "look at my toes!" or squish Paul's face. And while we are reading scriptures and praying, she is constantly saying "Gimme a kiss!" and climbing on Paul's shoulders...Oh, what fun!

She is very creative. She can entertain herself for hours with whatever she finds around her.
She loves to draw whatever pops into her little head, and I'm usually amazed at how good it is!
She turns anything and everything into little people, including crayons and pencils. I won't tell you what grade I was in, but my friend and I played "pencil people" in class all the time - the apple doesn't fall far, eh?
She doesn't have any imaginary friends that I know of, but she'll often have an imaginary group of children who she needs to teach and take care of. Haha, she's always talking about "the kids".

She's great at playing by herself, but gets so excited to play with other kids. She is not at all shy around them and can make a friend in seconds (I'm so jealous)! She is a good sharer, but if another kid takes something from her, she's done!

The other day in the car, she cried out "Fe Fi Fo Fum, I'm grumpy, I can't find my puppy!". Silly girl...

Jenna is insanely smart and funny, a little bit bossy, so adorable, and an absolute joy to have in our family!
