Samantha Update 3.5 years

I haven't posted much about Samantha lately. She is so busy all the time and just loves life! Samanta comes up with some of the craizest things, but she is totally me all the way around! Here are some updates

Vocabulary
Samantha will talk to almost anyone who will listening to you. We are starting to teach you how to read. It's coming along, but very slow. You just have a hunger to learn and want to know what each word is. You are learning how to draw letters and spell your name.
Samantha also repeats everything we say. I have to be careful what I say around her.

Eating
Samantha is still a picky eater, but is starting to try new things. Much to her surprise they are good! I told her I would never give her anything I don't like. She has been eating much better at meals and eats much better when sitting at a table with everyone else. She always says her prayers before and after she eats.

Sleeping
She has been sleeping much better in her own bed. She is not napping anymore. Every once in a while I will get a nap from her but very rarely. My mom bought her a calandar and I got her some stickers. When she gets 7 stickers in a row she gets a special prize. Needless to say we haven't gotten 7 in a row yet, but close a few times!

Other
She LOVES dancing. She dances from the time she wakes up until the time she goes to sleep. She also LOVES to sing! She loves Nicholas too. She is always playing with him and helping me get diapers, bottles, blankets. She loves cooking and baking too. We try to make something together each week. I'm sure there are lots of things I'm forgetting, but this is it for now!
