A 20 month old's prerogative



Maeve is getting more and more opinionated. She is already deciding what she wants to wear or not wear (such as the sweater when she really needed a winter coat). She loves lollipops, cheese, and her little sister. Some of her new words this week are running, march, quiet and noisey (she is a screamer lately so we are talking A LOT about quiet). I must say "cute" a lot too, because whenever she puts on an outfit she say "cuuuuuttteee". Another fun thing she does when she is getting ready to go down the stairs, which she is trying to do forward lately, I tend to tell her "turn around first". So she will stand up turn around in a circle and again attempt to go forward (instead of on her belly like I want her too). Kids are so literal! She also keeps talking about a turtle we saw on a walk last week. I encouraged her to touch it but she was kind of nervous about it. Now she keeps saying "turtle"......."touch"...... The other topic she keeps bring up is Emmie and our visit to Atlanta. Emmie is a feisty little girl who likes to push every once in a while. She never even pushed hard but obviously Maeve had an issue with it. Two weeks later she still keeps saying "Emmie"......."push".......while she pushes her own stomach. O' the drama!
