Johanna

(Post Family Farm last week with Grandma Rita, Aunt Rebecca, Josh and Luke)

Johanna is just over 2 1/2 and growing up so fast! She's independent, but also our biggest snuggler. Each morning after we bring the kids to school we have a little time before I have to go to work. Both of us love spending some of that time snuggling on the couch watching a show or reading books. She spends her days with Grandma Rita or at Jean's house and really likes both. The best is when I ask her on Fridays "Who's house are you going to tomorrow?" and she gets a HUGE smile and says "Staying at Mommy's house!" It's an adjustment for me having a child in daycare each day and it's a little tough at times, but I know that she really loves it and is doing great.

Johanna's developmental skills are interesting to say the least. The girl doesn't know her colors. We've tried SO much and she just doesn't know them. We are honestly beginning to wonder about color blindness. However, she colors well beyond her years. She chooses the smallest things on a page and colors them, in the lines. It's crazy really. And she's our biggest athlete too. She can throw a ball like she's in Little League and can drop kick a soccer ball. That's all when she's not on her bike or scooter of course.

Johanna is such a love and watching her grow up is such a fun ride!
