Well it's been an eventful week around our house..... Gone, gone, gone is my precious little baby and welcome TODDLERHOOD.......
TOP TEN WAYS YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A TODDLER...
10. We are now in full sprints around the house gone are the days of playing on one small blanket with a sqeaky little toy. And add on hiding in places and then giggling when mommy is now sprinting all over the house to find her before she finds something she shouldn't.....
9. Dance, Dance, Dance....... that's all we do..... to Kaylee's cd's to mommy's cd's to commercials on tv in the grocery store to the music (we draw quite an audience) and on market street in the middle of the big grassy area.....
8. In love with Baby..... our baby doll that is..... She now eats with us, gets fed a bottle, gets pushed in a wagon (we need a stroller for her hopefully santa will bring one), and she sleeps in the tent in our playroom. (glad someone around here likes to sleep..... I'm not bitter or jealous of baby, just look how peaceful she sleeps.... I wish my little toddler friend might learn to mimick this wonderful experience.)
7. We walk/sprint/crash into concrete to get the mail now instead of loving to be in mommy's arms (again, not bitter)
6. We fold clothes and know where mommy keeps all of the towels, her clothes, daddy's clothes and kaylee's clothes.... amazing... mommy can't even keep that straight.
5. We are saying words to say what we want.... still weirding me out a bit... I mean she'll say juice.... I always turn around like huh?!?!?!
4. NO FEAR.. enough said
3. We destroy the playroom in minutes.... (this isn't disturbing to mommy the neat freak or anything.... but we are rest assured learning to put toys and stuff away.... I recall asking my mom about a month ago when will she learn to clean things up. she said around eighteen months... that just was way too long or um late to me to be learning to clean up.... we are getting the hang of it now, well most of the time anyway....)
2. We shake our head yes and no for things we want...... she'll now tell me yes i want cheese or no I don't want milk..... the best is telling me yes to swinging and NO NO NO to taking a walk... oh but never fear she says yes to shopping.... couldn't be more proud.... HA HA
1. WE NOW HAVE A BIG I MEAN BIG OPINION ON WHAT WE WEAR...... I'm in so much trouble... just check out this picture..... Where are the fashion police when you need them... but we HAD to have these shorts on!
Check out the facial expression. yes folks this too is new... we scrunch our face up when we are unsure of someone or something or just simply don't like what's happening.... or better yet observe how we almost have our hands on our hips and one hip cocked to one side....
oh geeze, she really is my child isn't she... my mom always said I would have one just like myself and she simply said, good luck with that and had this oddly satisfying smile on her face.....
But all that said:
Daddy is still my hero..... Which leads me to my next top ten list .... top ten things I love about sweet toddler kaylee.... stay tuned. This list will be much harder to keep at just ten things.
