Our little bird has turned into a monkey climbing on anything and everything! Her latest fascination is climbing on our dining room chairs, because she is a "big girl" now! This morning marked yet another developmental milestone...climbing out of the crib! I got out of the shower only to find her crying outside the bathroom door...and not in her crib obviously! My jaw dropped to the floor, "I'm not ready!!"
We have already managed to get her hooked on TV..Sesame Street, Bubble Guppies, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Yo Gabba Gabba, Barney, Wiggles...you name it! She even points at the TV and asks for, "Abby" and "Elmo" and "Mickey."
She has toys galore, but she is more interested in mommy and daddy's iPhone and iPod! She also loves grabbing mommy's clothes out of the laundry and putting her feet in daddy's shoes. Today she wanted to wear my necklace and she strutted around the house. Did I mention that I am "NOT READY!"
She struts around the house trying to find her escape route! We don't dare leave a bedroom door open or she pulls everything out of the drawers. And the big scare was when she decided to tast a dolup of gel toilet bowl cleaner. Talk about a heart attack! We even had to change the handle on the pantry to a door knob because she was opening the door. Now she just stands in front of door and does the "sign" for "more" with her two little hands and looks up at us with those big blue eyes! She is a beggar!
She has discovered dance and we have bubble dance parties in the living room! I always dreamed of being a dance mom lol! She was the life of the party at my niece's wedding when she was grooving to Kool and the Gang!
The last six months has not been easy with the teething, tantrums, and trying of mommy and daddy's patience...but when we look at that beautiful baby girl we could not be happier....
