- can identify lots of items in books
- makes faces like she is confused or mad
- wears her hair in a ponytail most of the time and is much better about keeping in bows
- can follow simple instructions like go sit in your chair or put that in the basket

We’ve shared the good news with Piper that she is going to be a big sister. Although I don’t think she knows what is going on, when I ask her where the baby is, she is able to point to my belly and say “baby”. Only on occasion now does she point to her own belly.
