Ever since getting her own ipod touch for Christmas, Raegan seems to think she is all grown up. Some of the things she's told us recently:
"What are you doing in MY room?'
"Leave me alone"
"I don't want you in here"
"You're not my best friend, Dutch is my best friend"
"Yes, you have to"
"Because I don't want to"
She also will now play by herself in her room or playroom for what seems like hours. She likes to pick out her own clothes and gets upset if not everyone in the family is wearing the same color.
Today when she wanted more yogurt and I was watching the Baylor girls basketball game with Philip in the living room, she brought me her spoon and bowl and then opened the fridge got the yogurt out herself and brought it to me, told me how much to put in her bowl, and then took the yogurt back, set it down so she could open the fridge put it away before coming back to get her yogurt from me and then took it to her table in the kitchen to eat it. Philip and I just looked at each other like man this parenting stuff is getting easy!
So its kinda just like we have a new roommate, except for she should have to pay rent as she takes up about half the house with all her belongings : )
