At three, we already have quite an insight in to Megan's personality - to sum it up she looks like Mac, acts like me. I am totally psyched to have another Type A in the house, but I have to admit, sometimes Megan is even a little too anal retentive for me! We are hoping that her love of rules (and extreme adherence to them) will make her teenage years a lot easier. I know, wishful thinking! It does sometimes make it tough on Megan, like when her friends come over and just want to move the Candyland pieces around randomly, or worse yet, put them somewhere other than on the board!
A little bit more on Megan at three:
Megan only wears her diaper at night. She changes her underwear at least once or twice a day, but not because of accidents, but because on a whim she has decided she needs a whole new outfit, including undergarments or because she now wants Tinkerbelle undies, but she put Snow White on this morning.
Megan can tell you the beginning letter of pretty much any word, though occasionally she needs two tries for vowel words. She can spell: Megan, Liam, Mommy, Daddy, Kate, and hug. She knows all of our birthdays, our street and our city. She can count to 12 in Spanish and 59 in English, as well as backwards from 10. She also knows body parts, farm animals and colors in Spanish.
Coordination is still Megan's major stumbling block, quite literally. You're going to need a lot of your fingers and maybe even some toes to count how many times Megan trips, falls, bumps into the wall or drops something each day.
