Kambri 3 years old

I can't believe Kambri is 3. She has learned so much in her short life. Just before Kambri's birthday she had to get her tonsils out. She was such a champ. We had to go to the Central Utah Surgical Center at 6 a.m. to check in. After they called us back the nurse came into the little waiting area and swept her away. After a short 30 minute wait we were able to go back and see her. The nurse kept telling us how well Kambri was doing and how she has never heard a child not cry before. The days that followed were hard, but we made it through and she recovered well. It has made a huge difference in how she sleeps, eats, and even in her behavior.
Kambri has started to say thing like "actually...", "stinky old man", "get outta here", "mom, I so tired", "you're cracking me up", "you're breaking my heart" and "I kiss boys". She has these princess figurines and makes Flynn Ryder talk to Rapunzel. I think that is her favorite thing to do. She also loves to make her Barbies, and princesses from her Little People princess castle talk to one another.
Besides making her toys talk, she loves to play dress up. She loves to get in a dress up dress and some "glass slippers" and walk around the house. If she is in a good mood she will let Courtney dance with her. He is her prince.
Now that her tonsils are out she is eating so well. Before her tonsils were out she would hardly eat anything. Now she eats twice as much as she was eating. Her favorite things to eat are chicken, cereal, mac and cheese, hot dogs, cream of wheat, and any fruit. She isn't a big fan of candy, cakes or ice cream. She will eat ice cream, but it's only to get to the cone.
She has started to show more interest in Trace now that he is crawling. Sometimes when he is right next to her too much she gets irritated, but that is to be expected. She loves to pick him up and make him laugh. In the car we will often hear her tell him, "Trace, you're cracking me up". She loves to feed him now that he can eat solids, and will often offer to nurse him.
Kambri had her first kiss from Jantz. They were in a photo booth after we watched Monsters University and she got scared and cuddled into Jantz. So, naturally, he put his arm around her and stole a kiss. She now says "I kiss boyfriends". When we pass the new Provo City Center Temple she will say she is going to marry Jantz in her "Temple Castle".
