16 Months Old and a Cute little BOOTY....

O My Goodness Gracious.... My little chug is 16 months old. I just can't believe how fast time goes by. She is growing, growing, growing. Since she is in that Chicken Pox Study (that I wrote about last post) she got weighed a week ago so I have some stats from that. She weighs 25.14 lbs. and is 32 in. long. She has gained 1/2 lb. and 1/2 in. in 3 weeks. She has grown out of a lot of her winter clothes. I guess its a good thing Spring is in the air right???? Her belly is so big that her shirts arent fitting right and she is so tall all her pants are floods. She is so full of it, lately we call her miss sassifrass or lil' miss sas, because she is so full of it. I just love watching her explore and learn new things. I get so excited when she does something new I just have to tell everyone and hope she will preform for them also. Most the time she just stares at them like "yeah right, I am not showin you" it is pretty funny. She still loves to dance around and we are starting the potty training scheme. She is totally ready and does really well, I am not going to go hard core till spring break in 2 weeks when I don't have to worry about anything else and we can focus on it. She loves to wear her panties and her booty looks so cute in them. It makes me sad at the same time cuz it makes her look so grown up. Her favorite word right now is "uh-oh" she says it for everything: If we cant find something she says it, drops something says it, falls, you name it the "uh-oh" follows. Its pretty cute. She has really loved dogs lately @ my moms house she crawls around after her two dogs and pets them and chases them and feeds them what she is suppose to be eating. My little Smooshy and Delicious baby girl is so sweet, it is so fun to be her mommy and I couldn't think of a better job. I love you Molly J.

Trying Molly's panties on before morning one of training time.... I buttoned her onesie over her shoulder so you could see her panties.One Cute little Booty in big girl panties...
You gotta love her waffle and she still has the chubbiest thighs-love it.

Morning one of potty training, she did awesome- She went pee 3 times and poo 1 within the day while we were home. She wore panties straight from 7:30 am-11:45 am without one accident. I think that is pretty successful.
One happy diaper free dancin lil' lady....I said "Molly where are you princess panties?" She has the most proud smile on her face and is totally pointing to them. Oooo I just love this kid.

Lots to Blog About

A lot has been going on in our little world lately, so I have a lot of things to blog about- It seems like we have been going, going, going for weeks now with no stopping in sight. We have been busy, busy!!

First off, Molly was invited to participate in a Chicken Pox vaccine study @ her pediatrician office. It basically is testing one vaccine against another that have both been approved already, they are just testing which one is more effective. She has to get these shots anyways, so why not help out in this. Plus for every time she gets her blood drawn to test her antibodies she gets a $25 dollar gift card to Target. After the first time we got her one of her favorite toys-the "busy ball popper"- She has to get her blood taken 2 more times.
The white stuff on her arms numbs that spot so when they take her blood it doesn't hurt her one bit. She didn't even flinch when they did it. She was totally brave. After this they gave her the actual shot and they did not numb that- so there were a few tears, but would have been even if not participating in the study.
Checkin out the tape over the cream- Sorry this is blurry, she was on the move and I just used my little dinky camera- Still cute though!

This past weekend was Kyles farewell so Matt and Abbey decided to make a surprise visit. I was so ecstatic to see them and Mya for the first time not through a window. She is such a beautiful little baby, and Abbey is a great mom. The only picture I have of her from their stay is this one of Clint and her. I will get some more from Abbey later, this will have to do. She has the most beautiful black hair, and chubby little cheeks. Simply Adorable. Molly didn't really know what to think about her at first, but slowly warmed up to the idea. Thanks guys for the surprise it was AWESOME!!!
This week was also my birthday so my mom had a little shin-dig at her house Sunday night, for some reason she thought I was 24 so that is the number of candle she got( I just turned 23) or well I guess she wants me to age faster- It was so fun, I have not had a birthday cake for a very long time and it was an ice-cream cake to make things that much better. It was really fun. On my real Birthday Clint took me on a date to Outback and we did a little shopping just the two of us. I got a lot of fun things and some money to buy some fun things, I can't wait to go shoppin this weekend. Totally fun!Sunday- Little party at moms house. Molly loved handing me the presents!A sweet smile from my girl on my Birthday- What a sweet little miss Molly.My family- I am the luckiest person I know-

Molly is growing, growing, but I am going to do a post on that later this week so here are just a few random pics of her from the past week.Clint took the garbage out and found this giant frog in our parking lot. Molly thought it was so neat- it would hop and she would totally get giddy and chase the poor little frog-Molly loves the tub, for Valentines my mom gave her these dolls for the tub and she absolutely loves them. She could play with them for hours.

Feeding the Ducks with a little Chit Chat...

This week has been so busy, Molly and I have been doing a lot of fun things. Most of it involves being outside we have been on walks, to the park, and our favorite feeding the ducks. There were a lot of ducks that wanted some bread and Molly half the time decided she wanted to eat it also. So the ducks didn't like the idea of her eating their snack so that black one next to the 2 white ones in the corner picture took a snap at her hand. She didn't cry, but looked at me then the duck like "what the heck was that for stupid duck!" It was pretty funny. She was not scared of them at all and wanted to go swimming with them. This will probably be a weekly event. Can't wait!
Also while we are driving in the car Molly goes crazy with this conversation chit chat she has. It is so cute, I love her little voice it kills me, I can't wait till she actually says more words and full conversation that we understand. I understand some of the stuff she is saying, but most of you will not understand her gibberish. But I hope you enjoy!

Guess What I can Do????

It's me Molly- I have a couple new tricks up my sleeve and can't wait to share- I have been very very busy and into everything. For Valentines a couple people sent me Valentines cards and now I love to stare at them and just smile. I carry them all around the house and show them to my mommy and daddy saying "deese cards" (these cards) over and over, they think it is so cute because after daddy said "are those your cards Molly" I just started to say it. I think I must be pretty smart- look out Nursery here I come! (in a couple more months legally anyways)

This is me showing the camera my pretty Valentines cards.This is my newest favorite thing. Mommy decided to let me take my baby and stroller outside to play with while she cleaned the car. I was having so much fun pushing my baby around, playing in the rocks- picking rocks off the road and putting them back where they should be with the other rocks. I also decided that climbing on rocks is also a lot of fun.

I got another day outside with my dolly today and had so much fun. When I my nose started to run because it was kinda cold outside Mommy said it was time to go inside and have a snack and I so did not want to go inside, but after a little nudging and negotiating I decided to go in and have a snack and watch my favorite show Mickey Mouse Clubhouse-Minnie Mouse is my favorite.

And last but definitely not least my biggest accomplishment yet (that's why I have to save it for last) I went Poo Poo in the potty 2 nights in a row (hope that's not too much info)and have been Pee Pee in the potty 2 times this week. My mom isn't necessarily trying to train me because I am just shy of 16 months old, but I love the potty it makes me so excited and I get a treat after. I think I might have to make this a regular thing. We will have to see, but I guess we will take it one day at a time. I am a big girl and am growing up too fast according to my Mama.(had to make the first pic a little blurry-just in case)
Showing my great bod and the sucker I got after going Potty like a big girl. I think I might like this gig...
Queen of the Potty!!!!

Our Little Family

We had such a fun day yesterday, not only cuz it was Valentines either. That really had nothing to do with anything other than the way I dressed Molly. We were able to spend the day together as a family. It has been a while since Clint has had a Saturday morning off so we took advantage. We got up late, watched cartoons, hung out at home then ran to town-Costco and Target WAHOO! We went to lunch @ In-N-Out and Molly at half of Clint's hamburger patty-She stuffed her little face so fast it was so funny to watch. We came home and hung out some more before Clint had to work @ Pasta that night. It was so fun hanging out on our own time and doing what we wanted to do on a Saturday morning.
Our happy little family...
One happy lil' Babe...
Me and my girl ( she did not want her picture taken)-Look at the curls on her head-Sometimes they stay all day and others they disappear...
Daddy and his special Valentine...
Clint was putting Molly's shoes on and I just so happen to capture her funny face, click on the picture to make it bigger so you can see her funny face she is making...

We took some pictures of Ky today for the newspaper announcing his farewell and stuff and I had to sneak Molly in with her KyKy and she didn't want to participate and made more funny faces. So hear ya go- The last one is my favorite...

Chalk

Sunshiny Weather
Last week the weather was beautiful e were so glad to be outside and I was so glad to let the kids loose with the new Sidewalk Chalk I bought at Target (for 52 pieces it was only 5 bucks. You can't beat that.) I don't know when Molly will ever grow out of this "I must taste this before I use it" phase, but its getting crazy. Aside from crayons and play-dough she has been munching on dirt and her latest taste test the CHALK with every color she picked up. Silly Girl. It was so much fun watching her test this new art form on the side walk. The other kids had a blast too, and it was so nice to be outside.Drawing with her purple chalk...
Molly and Trey coloring away....
O she is just so sweet I can't believe it. She is just growing up too fast!
Trying some dirt from beneath the rocks....mmmmmmmm
Chalk Booty
The masterpiece on the sidewalk that sadly got washed away by rain this week....


A little bit of Naughtiness
Molly is obsessed with opening anything with her mouth. Well she got a hold of the ponies and I knew she would make a mess, but had to snap pictures. She slowly opened each section of the colored elastics and dumped them one by one. After they were all dumped out she nicely tried to put them back in the container. Smart, but naughty little cookie!
Opening one by one....
"I am so not doing anything naughty Mom I promise"
Trying to put them back where they go....
The Rainbow of colors(there were 2 more to be dumped at this point)


Stairs
This is Molly's latest trick- Going down the stairs without falling down them. She has been able to go up for ever it seems, but just recently got the right motion to go down. I thought this picture was pretty funny and the only good one I got in her adventure down the stairs.

Dance, Dance, Dance



I couldn't resist sharing this video of Molly from tonight. She has got some great dance moves. Watch out Eshelles, here she comes! Her new trick is going in circles, sometimes she goes in too many circles and falls and runs into things. I have been laughing at her all day she is so dang funny and entertaining to watch. She is my joy! I love this girl and I hope you all get a kick out of it.

Bike Rides and More...

The weather here has been beautiful the last couple days and I just put Molly's seat on my bike, we got it when she was little and only used it once cuz she was just that "little" so we decided to try it out again since she is much bigger and she loved it. I am not so sure how she felt about the helmet, but she has to wear it and she will get used to it the more we go. I think she looks so cute with it on. We are going to try and go for a ride every day that the weather permits.
Trying to decide what is going on and why she is in this weird seat.
Ready to Rock!
She escaped while I was putting the bike away and was wandering in front of our house with her helmet over her eyes and NO shoes on. It was pretty funny to watch her wobble around not knowing where she was going because this giant bowl was on her head.Goof!
She won't look at me a lot of the time, but I can't help but snap these pictures of her sweet little face.
Molly's very most favorite thing to do-Read her books. Actually today she said "book" for the first time, she also said "hot" I couldn't believe it. 2 new words in one day! Way to go Molly!
This is Molly pointing to her teeth- She knows where her: eyes, hair, belly, belly button, nose, mouth, and booty are. It is so cute when you ask her where it is she points and smiles so big.

This is the Growth Chart that I just made for Molly, I have been wanting to do this for a while now and finally got around to it. It matches the book shelf in her room. I have yet to mark the heights from the last little while on it, but have them written down. I think it turned out pretty cute.(should be able to click it to make it bigger)
