The fun continues...

I do not understand why people need TVs when they have 2-3 year olds in the house. MM is so full of hilarious adventures that I do not miss those tired sitcoms. Here are a few from this week:

1. On Sunday, MM was in a dress and decided to go commando. This however was not enough, she went outside, lifted her dress and then peed on the driveway. My husband was outside talking to the neighbor who alerted Andy to MM's show.

2. MM was walking around saying "Hmmmm, where is it, hmmmm, where is it?" so I replied, "Hmmmm, I don't know." She turned to me and said, "Hey, that's my line!"

3. Upon waking from an afternoon nap crying from a dream, she informed me that the "Damn monster" was after her! Thank you potty mouth daddy.

4. Before leaving the house, she must give her father a "Mooch" (smooch) and gets upset if she can not also give one to "baby brudder."

5. MM has always liked showers and did not want a bath. I recently got her back into a bath because she was really dirty from decapitating flowers in the backyard. I got her to lay back so I could work on the dirt in her hair one time, so now she wants to lay back all the time. She puts her fingers in her ears to keep out the water (she did this on her own) and sings because she likes how it sounds half submerged. She will also "swim" in the tub and calls it her "pond."

6. She has figured out that the sound "suh" refers to color in Chinese from watching Kai Lan and she knows red and green in Chinese. The other day she had two toys in her hand- one red and the other blue. She said, "Look mommy, hun suh (red)...pause... and blue suh!" She will randomly say things to me in Chinese and Spanish, luckily I have watched the shows with her so I know what she is saying!

7. I am still pumping breast milk for BJ and start each morning at 5:45 am so that I can pump and get ready for work. Yesterday MM got up at 6 am, stood at the top of the stairs to yell down to me "Mommy? You pumping your meatballs?" I have not figured out why my breasts are meatballs, but I am the only one who has them.

8. After seeing her brother trying to roll over, she told him to watch her she would show him how to do it.

9.  When I got her a coloring book with crayons, she spent two hours not coloring her book, but arranging and rearranging her crayons so that she could knock them down in different patterns and on different surfaces.

10. She decided to color in the TV screen while watching a shape matching game during intermission on Nick Jr. I know this because she smiled at me and told me she colored in the circle for Moose and Zee. I love magic eraser.

11. She turns on my radio clock and dances in front of my bedroom mirror like she is in Fame or Splash Dance.

As I said before, I am trying to find the blessings in all she does because I want to keep my blood pressure down.

Update on BJ: he is finally sleeping better and less fussy. I am hoping to get him off medicines in the next month or so. He is also smiling and cooing more. His favorite time is, of course, 3 am.
