"Allie open it"

A favorite snack right now is granola bars, specifically chewy peanut butter chocolate chip. But Allie also likes cereal bars too. Whatever bar she's eating, "Allie open it." This means, Mama or Dada tears the wrapper a little bit to get started, and then Allie opens it up and gives us the wrapper, saying its all gone. Its the cutest thing. She sometimes will pluck the chocolate chips out of the bar individually.

Speaking of cute things Allie has been doing lately, there are many. She prefers to eat Yobaby for breakfast now, usually more than one carton. When its done, we have to put it in the trash. She's very interested in making sure the trash goes in the trash! We have two trash cans, one of which is recycling, so we need to make sure she puts it in the right one, and also make sure she's not throwing away something we need to keep.

Her other favorite breakfast item is chocolate cheerios. Some mornings Mama shares her chocolate cheerios, and some mornings I get her own bowl. That takes a little more time though, so when we get her own bowl of cereal, we need to make sure we get her up a little early.
