We love you, sweet baby Rose!  You are precious in every single way!  Daddy and I talk about you ALL the time and can\u2019t wait to tell each other Rose stories as they happen.  When you get into trouble, you hunch your little back, roll your shoulders to the floor with your head just hanging down in shame.  You huff and puff and say, \u201cI so sorry!\u201d  Then you look up and grin at us\u2026 and we all can\u2019t help but giggle at your cuteness.  <\/p>\n

You love playing monster!  That is by far your favorite game!  You say, \u201cRoar!\u201d and hold up your hands like a monster and try to scare us, and we pretend like we are scared.  You laugh and laugh!  And then you say, \u201cNake\u201d (snake) and point at the floor, and we all scream and jump like there is a snake on the ground.  You literally squeal with delight that we are playing along.  And then we pretend to scare you and you shiver and say, \u201cI cared, I cared!\u201d (I scared, I scared)  It\u2019s a really fun game, and you made it up!  <\/p>\n

You LOVE water and drinks in general!  You call anything in a cup, your \u201ccups.\u201d  You ask for a \u201ccups\u201d all the time.  Tonight you said, \u201cMore sips in my cups!\u201d but it is usually just, \u201cI want my cups!\u201d  You\u2019ve gotten in the habit of calling me \u201cNa-ne!\u201d  You scream it from another room when you want me.  Noelle used to do that when she was a toddler.  It\u2019s really strange, but really cute!  We have a picture of you as a baby on your tummy in our breakfast room.  Since you are on your tummy, you think you fell down in the picture, so you always look up at it and say, \u201cUh oh!  Rose fall down!\u201d and you point up to your picture.  I try to tell you that you were a baby just laying on your tummy, but you insist that you fell down, so I play along and say, \u201cUh oh!  Sorry for your ouchie, Rose!\u201d and you pout and put out your bottom lip and say, \u201cKiss, Na-ne, kiss!\u201d  <\/p>\n

I could tell Rose stories all day long\u2026 there are new ones every day!  You are the life of the party; we are CRAZY about you, sweet baby Rose!  You\u2019re so much fun to live life with, and we are tickled pink you are our third awesome girl!  Way to grow, lol!<\/p>\n

Love, Mommy and Daddy<\/p>\n
