puzzles and games

dottie has been very into playing games and putting together puzzles lately. she received a cool dollhouse floor puzzle for christmas from santa that she has loved and then got a farm floor puzzle from her friend isa by the same company for her birthday which she is now very into. the first couple of times, we had to help her put it together but now she can do it on her own, talking her way through why this puzzle piece fits there and so on. it's amazing how much she has grown up lately!

she is also loving candyland, matching games, go fish, kiddie dominos,... the main issue with any of them of course is that she wants to win every time and gets upset when she doesn't. she is her mother's child!
