Oh, Josie just can’t wait to be a big kid like her sisters. She runs around asking to do “homework” every afternoon (probably thinking it’s something very special since she’s not allowed to bother the other girls when they are doing it). We finally got Jo her own pad of paper to do her “homework” on, which made her very happy.

She’s looking pretty confident here, drawing a masterpiece. Look at that grip!

But wait…here comes the switch…she changes hands…and…

Kapow! Maybe she thinks that hand is closer to the page she wants to work on! So far I still can’t tell whether she will be a lefty or righty. I wouldn’t put it past her to be able to use both for a long time.

Of course, it doesn’t matter which hand you use to eat a yummy potato chip, does it?

By the way, I’ll be investigating Maddie and Sophie’s gap-toothed smiles in an upcoming post - the Tooth Fairy has been doing some serious business here in the last few weeks!

Josie has discovered a love for stickers. Can you tell?

Several times now, when she is offered a sheet of stickers to bring home, she immediately starts removing them and sticking them on herself. Methodically, she’ll remove every last sticker and place them on any space she can find.

OK, so that’s all totally normal. Until she started pulling up her pants leg, sticking a sticker on, then quickly pulling the leg down. Repeated continuously until she had about twenty stickers surrounding one knee and about ten on the other!! She didn’t take them off for a couple of hours!

Any bets on what her first tattoo will be?
