mind blowing, I know

It's really becoming apparent that Pippa is no longer an ickle teensy babe anymore.

I realize everyone else already knows this. Literally, everyone.

She'll be three in 2 months.

As had happened with previous births, I had Viv in April and realized ohmygoodnessholywhatever my baby is a big girl! But she hadn't changed, I had.

Now she's changed. She speaks in full sentences and the girl can argue her point just like I can. She sized up in clothes and now I get her clothes confused with Sera's often. She's potty trained herself, little miss independent, and she's all about "I do it!" "Let Pip do it!" and the, finally, "I did it!". She's stopped running away from me in public all the time, and instead of point blank drop-dead-and-kill-me-now refusing to sit in the stroller? She WANTS to sit in the stroller. Crazy girl. She gets what's going on around her and she would also like to voice her opinion pweese. But she is not interested in picking up her toys or finishing her breakfast momma, notanku.

She's not a little toddler anymore, she's this tiny little BIG GIRL. In big girl panties. She's the polar opposite of Sera, and I'm positive I'm going to have to put them on separate continents when they're teenagers if the world is to survive, but for now, she's almost 3, and she's, all of a sudden, my big girl.
