I'm one and a half!


Hey everyone, it is me, Myah. I just wanted to let you all know I am officially 18 months old. It really is quite old and old enough that I should write my own post so you can all hear about my life from my own point of view. I've really matured lately. In fact I have grown up so much that I am ready to be one of the big kids. I like to follow my brothers and big kids around the neighborhood. I don't really like to walk much any more because running gets you where you need to go much faster. I prefer the princess prance. I run on my toes so that my pigtails bounce when I jog. I think the boys dig it! I like to feed myself....I am no longer a baby and if you try to feed me with a spoon, I will pucker my lips and turn my head. I can say a few words but prefer the uh uh uh method. You should try it sometime. If you grab your mom around the leg and repeat uh uh uh long enough, you will get whatever you want! And if that doesn't work, well just hold your breath until you pass out. Your parents will be so worked up they will give you ANYTHING just to keep you from doing it again. It works like a charm. I have given up the bottle....I mean really a sippy is just as good....except if I wake up in the night. Mom is too tired so she will treat me with a warm bottle. I am pretty good though and only do that every once in a while. I love my binky, I love it more everyday. My mom should get smart and take it away, but it usually keeps me quite in important situations. I am a great sleeper....except when I don't want to be. Sometimes I'm just not tired so I kick my crib and talk to myself all afternoon. I don't usually cry though. I know my mom needs a minute to re-group. I love to smile, and sometimes giggle so hard that I tip over. I love my brothers. They have already taught me to wrestle and I am pretty sure I will beat them at it soon! I love music. Head banging in the car with my mom is one of my favorite things. Really I am just a doll and I have my whole family wrapped around my pinky...especially dad...I think he melts every time I look at him! It is great! Today my mom wanted to do a photo shoot. I wanted to play on the playground. Take a look....you can decide who won!




*note from mom: Little does she know I think she is just as cute when she cries!

Does she really pass out? Shane's brother used to do that too! I can't believe they learn to hold their breath. The pediatrician said it wasn't that big of a deal until he did it in his office one time and he panicked. Silly kids! Myah is getting so big. It's crazy that all of a sudden they look like little people and not your little baby!

Very cute Jo! Their little personalities just explode out of them sometimes, I love it! Don't you wish you could just freeze them just the way they are sometimes?
