Its hard to believe our little peanut is another month older. Here are some things that have been happening:
• Still continues to grow and a ridiculous speed. All I can say is thank goodness for spring right around the corner - it doesn't matter if the capris are too short! I had to bring her to the doctor the other day and they measured her at 30 lbs and 39.5" tall (with shoes on)! She is literally taller than all the girls at daycare - and they are all three already.
• Macyn enjoys dressing herself, and gets very upset if you tell her that something doesn't look good....such as black church shoes with leggings and socks. Some days you just have to pick your battles. She also asks to wear dresses every day and usually wants a bow in her hair. Other fashion issues with her is thinking something is too small when it really isn't. She refuses to wear her Nike tennis shoes because she insists, "too small, don't fit."
• She has also become very independent and wants to do things her way. We no longer watch her in the bathtub, and when she is done she will drain the tub, crawl out, and run around to come and find us.
• She has a pretty big sweet tooth and asks for candy pretty much every day. This is one of those battles I usually let her win. If having a piece of chocolate will get her calmed down and content after work, more power to ya. Some days the trade off is better than a temper tantrum.
• For some reason she hasn't been sleeping well lately. I'm not sure if its the time change or if she just doesn't need as much sleep in general. She always goes to bed at 8:30 and has lately been up for a couple hours at a time during the night, and the past 5 days she has woken up at 4:00 am. Not sure what is going on but I really hope its just a phase.
Even though she can be a handful (the majority of the time), we do enjoy (mostly) every minute with her - especially when she's happy and not being a drama queen :)
