101 things about Sierra Brooke ( a work in progress)


'

She was conceived on my 33rd birthday

When I was pregnant with her, I had a dream that she was a girl, and she told me that she wanted her middle name to be brooke.

She is 1/2 Chilean, 1/4th Italian, 1/4 english irish german lithuanian polish milkman and god knows who else

She has her father's eyes, and nose, and my mouth and all my expressions.

She loves broccoli, and would eat it night and day, if I let her.

She prefers red Popsicle's.

She can't stand it if a little bit of water spills on her dress, she will demand to be changed,

She does not like to wear pants. at all.

She likes to line up the shoes, and find the ones that match, and she picks out my shoes and lays them out for me according to the colours I am wearing.

Her heroes are Shrek and Buzz and woody, and she knows every disney princess by name.

She loves the cats, but they are not so fond of her.

Sierra loves to swim and is fearless, she loves to go down the slide, into the pool, even though her cousins are afraid.

She also loves to hang from the monkey bars at the playground and as a result she has amazing upper body strength for a girl.

She likes for her dresses and skirts to flare out when she twirls.

She sleeps with no less than 8 binky's clutched in her little hands and in the middle of the night, she feels around in the dark, for them, if she loses one.

She loves grapes and oranges, and cucumbers and corn on the cob.

She does not like bananas.

She was born after 36 hours of labor, but her actual delivery was quite quick,( only 20 mins ) and the dr walked into the room, just in time to catch her.

Her favourite tv shows are Dora, Caillou and Simpson's.

Her favourite people are her cousin's, her aunt tara and GRANDPA!

She loves to give hugs and is very concerned if someone is crying, and will try to comfort them.

If her friend's or cousins have a time out, she will sit on the stairs, with them, while they are in time out and hold there hand.

She sometimes goes into the freezer and helps herself to a red popsicle, but before I can yell, she will walk over to me, and hand me one, and say " I got this one, for you, MOMMY "

When her friends make a mess, with her toy's, she will walk behind them and sing the clean up song, and pick up, but i I ask her to clean up, she will say " you DO it! "

she loves spicy dinosaur bbq chips, and would sell her soul, for some. when I tell her that they are to spicy, she yells at me, and says that they are not " 'PICY"

Sierra will try anything new, and if she does not like it, she will quietly hand it back to me, and sweetly say in a quiet voice " ...I hate it"

----------------- adding new things, as of sept 2008------------------

sierra loves her nursery school, and always runs happily inside the classroom and hugs her teachers

sierra still sleeps with me, and every night, she needs me to " hold her" to sleep, we read two books that she chooses and then, she lays in the crook of my left arm, and usually she falls asleep, just as my arm is starting to feel numb. and sometimes i can slide it out, without waking her up, and other times, she will wake up, and say, sleepily " i still need you to hold me " and once, when i was sick, she insisted on letting me lay in the crook of her arm, and she " held me" til i told her that i felt better

sierra loves the incredibles, ninja turtles, superman, batman, spiderman,casper, scooby doo, mickey mouse, pluto, goofy, and yet, still manages to love all of her disney princesses, and minnie and daisy and wears her princess dresses, while watching ninja turtles etc.

sierra still does not like to wear pants. ever.

she swims like a fish, and still remains pretty fearless.

sierra loves to play games on the computer and watch dvd's, but she also loves being outside and running all around.

sierra still needs a nap everyday, and usually is not to hard, to get her to take one.

sierra still has an undying love for her binky's and will ask for them, when she is tired... that is how i know she is ready for a nap.....she remains unphased and unashamed, by all the people who tell her that binky's are for baby's, she could care less... and tells them, she is going to have her binky until she is 8

sierra loves her family and friends, and often at night, before she falls asleep, we name all the people in her life, who love her, and whom she loves, and it is a very very long list.
