The last couple of weeks have been a whirl wind! Myla just keeps growing, I've been in school learning to write my ABC's (I can do A really well and can pick out many letters on paper now), daddy has been working hard and mommy has been trying to keep all of us going in the right direction! It continues to be exhausting, but in a really good way!
Lately Myla hasn't been sleeping as well as she usually does. She is getting up at night much more and getting out of her miracle blanket. Several times mommy has thought about not putting her in it, but she really won't go to sleep without it. So mommy is really trying to figure out what to do! Even though she is up more than normal, she is still such a sweet little soul. She is a very happy baby most of the time who rolls over and over, smiles all the time and even laughs out loud way more these days! Mommy can't believe how long she is. She is wearing 9 month pj's because she needs the length in her footed pj's!!
School this year is really great for me. I am making new friends and I even get to see my friends from last year sometimes. I've learned my left and my right. I am singing lots of songs about the seasons and days of the week. Mommy and daddy just can't believe how much I am picking up! I even blow their mind because of how much I'm learning in my church, too!
I just recently starting going to children's church on Sunday mornings, graduating from the nursery. Last week I told mommy all about King Ahab, Elijah, and Jezebel!!!! And mommy gets to see me in Kidz Zone on Sunday nights now. I am doing a really great job in there and am acting like such a big girl.
On Friday evenings I have been going swimming with mommy and daddy. I LOVE IT! The pool is really deep, with the shallow end being 4 feet, so I use a noodle to kick my way around. I am getting really good at going under water, jumping in to mommy and daddy and kicking from one end to the other. I have even heard my parents talking about swimming lessons for me!!
To be honest, I am really testing my limits at home right now...testing my parents and making sure they are always on their toes. It is a hard lesson to learn that I can't just throw fits and get what I want. It is also really hard to learn that "no" means "no" and I have to use my ears to LISTEN! I bet my parents say the word, "LISTEN," at least 100 times a day! Somebody just needs to keep reminding mommy and daddy that THIS IS A PHASE!
I still love being a big sister, though. I love Myla and I love that she is starting to interact more with me! I sit and talk to her and I help comfort her when she is sad. I get so super excited when she smiles at me!!
I hope this catches you up a little bit. Tonight I was playing with my cousins and realizing that it has been way too long since I've updated this blog! I will try to remind mommy that we need to do it ALL THE TIME!
