Oh Boy; Trouble Is In the Air

Abby took 3 steps today!!! How exciting. I am not sure that she is really close to walking because she doesn't usually care too much but Makyra was carrying her and she put her down. Abby stayed standing and then took 3 steps to me before falling! She's such a big girl. Her weight is at 16 lbs 11 oz and 28 inches long (I think). She is a little love bug and is the snuggliest cuddliest baby ever.

Now, Miss Makyra was supposed to turn 4 a week and a half ago. Unfortunately by her behaviour today I don't think that is accurate.

I told her to not eat any chocolate - she took some and ate it in the other room.

I put her in time out - she scribbled all over the wall while in time out.

I let her go outside, on our way in I told her to close her bubbles - she spilled it all over the place.

As I was cleaning up the bubbles I turned around to see the other bottle of bubbles that she left open in Abigail's mouth, yum.

I told her mommy needed some quiet time after dealing with a baby that has a sour stomach but wasn't supposed to drink too much or she would throw up.

I sent her upstairs and put the baby gate half way up the stairs because of Abby. Ky was supposed to be cleaning her room. She came down to the gate (like she had a few times trying to get out) and says 'Heavenly Father says 'yes''; me- 'what?'; ky- 'Heavenly Father says yes''; me- 'to what?'; ky- 'Heavenly Father says yes, I can come downstairs.' I was speechless....

I was folding some clothes and she decided to sit in the pack and play. I threw some coats in there to set them aside for hanging up. She stood up, threw them out of the crib and says "Mom you're ruining my life!"

Sigh, I should write a book.

Um, I think you are writing a book. This way you'll have some fun stuff to show her fiance'. Where did she pick up "you're ruining my life"? At least you aren't bored.

She told me that Dan told her that... Then she told me that Abby told her that...

I told her that ruining her life means that I make her sad. I asked her if she was sad and she goes, No, I'm HAPPY!

Wow, sounds like fun times. It will get better, then worse again, then better. We go through these phases with Caden and he's 5. Yikes. You are a good and patient mom, keep it up!

oh man what a crazy girl! Did I ever tell you that when Mark was learning to walk we had to have Isaac across from him because he wouldn't walk to anyone but Isaac. It was pretty cute. He'd hobble over to Isaac and then they would both fall over from Marks weight. :) LOVE IT@

HOLY CROW!!! She's old enough to walk already? Surely she's just an early bloomer, cause I swear she was just born. =P
