All about Genevieve


Genevieve is helpful. Most of the time. Once in a while when you ask her to do something she offers a simple "I can't!".

Genevieve is an impish tease. She likes to steal toys from her brothers and run. When they chase her and are just about to catch her she throws the toy and runs in the opposite direction.

Genevieve is chatty. Once she gets the hang of longer sentences I think we'll hear her voice nonstop. As it is she can keep up a lengthy conversation by repeating back what you've said to her. :-)

Genevieve is sweet. She likes to give kisses and hugs and once in a while you can catch her patting Jake on the head when he cries.

Genevieve is very busy. She's always doing something though not often for very long; she likes her activities varied and numerous. :-)

Genevieve is trouble. She is the one that will think up the crazy ideas, I'm sure!

Genevieve is adventurous. She's the first one to try new activities, although at times she is cautious. She climbs to the top of the playground set and then sits down - she's scared of slides.

Genevieve is my messy child. She's the one that eats crayons, plays in the dirt, and runs barefoot through mudpuddles. She likes to dump her food bowl upside down when she's done eating or if she just wants to play with her food.

Genevieve is very friendly. She loves people. She likes new faces and warms up to new friends quickly.

Other trivia?

Genevieve does a great dinosaur impression. Her brothers encourage her to chase after them making her dinosaur roaring noise. It's adorable.

Genevieve is, at times, a bit of a klutz. She is usually sporting a few bruises! (Of course some of the bruises are courtesy of her brothers. Her teasing sometimes drives them to physical retaliation.)
Genevieve has a great self-image. When disciplined for poor behaviour she starts chanting "I'm nice! I'm nice."

Genevieve loves to color. If life followed Genevieve's preferences, we would have 4 coloring sessions a day.

Genevieve loves to eat. As mentioned in the past, she particularly favors food on other people's plates.
