Maryann

Miss Maryann is 2.5 years old and absolutely overflowing with personality.  She makes us laugh all the time.  She is either the funnest most hilarious person to be with or the moodiest most frustrating child to deal with... there's not much middle ground right now.  She is full of emotion and so sweet and loving.  She is herself, she is 100% Maryann Katherine... she knows what she wants.  She talks with her hands and is so expressive.  She gets up really early every morning and comes to lay in bed with me until Caroline wakes up.  She is obsessed with having her back scratched.  Her Daddy has to scratch it every night or all hell breaks lose.  She even manages to have Lauralee scratch her back at bedtime.  Hogan has started sleeping on the top bunk every night because "he doesn't scratch backs".  Maryann loves baby dolls, purses, nail polish, princesses, lip gloss, and make up.  She carries her baby doll around, nurses her, and has me babysit while she is at meetings and the gym.  I wish I could capture her at this age and keep her from growing up.  She is just PERFECT and we love her to the moon and back.  Oh, this child.  I love her.
