Svea-isms

You still love to run behind your chair or the dining room curtains and "hide".  When we come to "look" for you we'll ask you if you are behind the chair or curtains and you say in a sweet and cute little voice..."Nooo".  I wish we could put this into a time capsule.  I can hear it now.  You have the most innocent sweetest little voice.

"Come Get Me" is still one of your favorite phrases.  To add to this you'll sometimes say "Daddy/Mommy/Meeko is coming to get me".  You like to grab our fingers or hands and lead us to where you want to go.  If we don't come you will wrap your arms around us and try to lift us up, all while you grunt with effort.  So cute!

You are no longer afraid of strangers.  We'll see an older couple walking down the street and you'll run to them and give them a hug.  If Larry, our next door neighbor, comes over he gets a hug before he leaves.  If random people stop by they all get hugs good-bye.  You are very sweet!

We had people over the other night and they have three school aged girls.  You were immediately in heaven and led them all over the house to play with this and that. The cutest thing you did was insisting that everyone play Ring Around the Rosie at least once.  After about twenty games we had to distract you so everyone could get a rest.

You love being a kitty.  Meow, meow, meow you say as you crawl around all over on the floor.

When my Dad and Lynn were here last weekend Papa was watching a hunting show for a few minutes and we started talking about the big and baby deer. All on your own you started saying, "Big dear coming, coming to get Bye-ya.  Coming to get Mama".  You kept saying this over and over and it was so funny.  

Svea, you are so small, but have this big personality. We love you and you make us laugh everyday! You are trying to wink in these pictures!  You were finally successful!
