Ocean Rosalind 💙🌊

🎨 Preschool Ocean is starting preschool for 1–4.5 year olds! She’s a tiny, excited explorer stepping into a world full of toys, paints, and new friends. At 1 year and 6 months, she doesn’t fully understand “school,” but she’s thrilled by the play tables, sand pits, and singing circles. Feelings about preschool: Ocean is a little shy at first, holding tightly onto Mama’s hand. But when she sees the colors, bubbles, and other toddlers, her eyes light up. She’s curious, adventurous, and already loves pointing out her favorite things: blocks, books, and little stuffed animals. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Mama: Eleanor “Ellie” Whittaker — café owner, gentle, sings lullabies, smells like cinnamon Mommy: Annalise “Annie” Whittaker — marine biologist, brings home seashells, funny and warm Big Sister: Rowan Amelie Whittaker (8) — storytime queen, loves reading to Ocean Big Brother: Noah Elliot Whittaker (5) — playful, protective, loves teaching Ocean new words Baby: Ocean herself — the littlest, giggliest heart of the Whittaker family 💖 Favorites Food: Mashed banana & blueberry yogurt Toy: Her stuffed bunny “Bun-Bun” Song: You Are My Sunshine (she claps along every time) Animal: Ducks — she quacks back at them enthusiastically Color: Light blue Object: Shiny seashells collected with Mommy --- 🌸 Interests & Hobbies Splashing in puddles Bubbles (her absolute obsession) Watching waves roll in Scribbling with crayons or stacking blocks Twirling and wobbly “dancing” Helping Mama stir empty bowls while pretending to bake --- ✨ Quirks Says “buh-buh” for bubbles, birds, and butterflies Waves “bye-bye” to the moon every night Sleeps with one hand on Bun-Bun’s ear Giggles when she sneezes Calls everyone’s name like a question: “No-ah?” “Ro-ro?” “Mamaaa?”
