Nova is Three!

Can you even believe it??  Nova turned 3!

Here are some highlights of our lives leading up to this momentous date:

Nova's imagination continues to blossom.  She continues to ask us to "Help her talk" while she hands us a random stuffed animal.  But, she can now have a conversation by herself - where she plays the role of both stuffed animals herself.  She is also a great mommy to Pinky, shown above.
  


Here we are at the Air and Space Museum.


Uh-oh.  A sign of the future - Nova ignoring us while on her phone.  (For concerned grandparents: This is a fake phone!)


Wrapped up like a blue hot dog!


At a preschool event, Nova (in the purple skirt) found a friend.   I don't know this friend, but they seem quite close!



Nova got her first haircut!  While she doesn't look thrilled, it was totally her idea.  She asked me several times that morning, so we went.  She cooperated the entire time and was very proud of herself.

The hairstylist didn't listen to me, so we won't go back.  I think I'll try to cut her hair from now on. (Famous last words.)


 The finished product!  She just got a trim.  




Having a picnic with her friends! 



Playing at a friend's house!


For her birthday, Nova's auntie Breck came to visit!  We had so much fun!

For breakfast, we went to Breck's favorite spot - a vegan restaurant called Sticky Fingers!  Nova kept asking if she was going to have "stinky fingers."


Then, we went to the mall where she jumped in a bouncy house (hence the red cheeks).  And, then, we got into this mall train.


She was a little shy of the camera man (aka, the conductor), so here you're seeing her shy face.  But, Breck and I were ecstatic.



Leaving the mall, she held Lynx's hand.  She started doing this a few weeks ago and Lynx couldn't be happier.



NOVA STATS:
On January 30, she was 31 lbs.

On January 31, she put on her Minnie Mouse dress and said, "I wear this for wedding day.  I marry you, Daddy and Baby."

After a rough (ahem, cranky, ahem) morning, she said, "I need to have relax" and went to her room to lay down for a while.

February 11, when she's thirsty, she says she's "drinky."

February 21
When I said, "Thank you Nova.  She says, "You're welcome. It's no deal."
