Chalyse's Favorite Things:

~Her Baby doll.
~Her Rock collection.
~The movie "Monsters INC."
~Being read to. Her favorite book right now is "When Sophie Gets Angry...Really, Really Angry." She also likes "50 Below Zero," "Curios George Rides a Bike," "Lizards Song" and "Mrs Rumphius."
~"Meeping" noses (pinching your nose and saying meep). She will "meep" her animal crackers' noses and will often be looking at a picture in a book, usually an animal, and will meep the nose of the picture.
~Saying "Bye." She will come and close the door of the room i'm in so she can say "bye" to me then opens it so she can do it again. She also likes to say "Bye" over and over again when we are getting ready to leave the house.
~Saying the sound a particular animal says when she sees it. She is really good and doing at elephant sound.
~Mimicking sounds she hears like the timer beeping. The other day she was mimicking the crows out side our window. She sounded just like them.
~Playing with the neighbor across the hall, Royce who is a year older than her. When ever she hears some one out in the hall she gets excited and says "Royce, Royce." Sometimes it sounds more like "Reese."
~Dressing up. She likes wearing hats (or sometimes a doll dress she pretends is a hat.) And she loves to put on Mom's or Dad's gloves.
