Yucky Charms

Well, it is definitely Monday! (Heck, I'm already blogging instead of doing work and Mylee is already stationed on my lap at the computer instead of playing... and it is only 8:12 am! Help!)

After Mylee's customary first words of every morning, "where Dad?" and "want Yucky Charms", we started getting breakfast out. Lucky Charms (Mylee can't say her L's) for her and Raisin Bran for me. She started up a fuss because she wanted both cereals, so... I mixed them for her. But, then there wasn't enough Raisin Bran left for me so I got out some Shredded Wheat... and sure enough Mylee begged until I added some to her concoction. I cut up some apricots for my cereal and obviously she needed some too. So, we FINALLY sit down to eat and she tries it and says "I don't yike it, want yucky charms." It's going to be one of those days!

The Photo Shoot

We did some "official" picture taking for Mylee's second birthday, and I'm finally getting around to doing something with them. Laurie took them (you can see more of her photography on her link in my list to the left.)I don't know where she got those eyelashes - but we love em!

These two pictures are examples of how it all went - Mostly over cheesy smiles and looking at bugs etc. Oh well - she had fun!

She looks so quiet and peaceful......good thing we got a picture of it.

That's my girl!

Most of the smiles of the day were due to the bubbles!

THANKS LAR!

A Mom Moment

Last weekend I woke up to Mylee's face. Literally. She came up to me in my sleep and touched her nose to mine and with a great big smile waited for me to come to. It was quite an experience, and it still makes me laugh to think about it. The next day, I came into her room to wake her up and she said "Mommy, cuddle me." So, I climbed in her little bed with her and cuddled with her for a few minutes. She rarely holds still, so it was pretty cool!

Mylee wasn't too helpful in getting a family picture

Oh so cute!

Mylee has started helping us say prayers. It is kind of a "fill in the blank" situation. We say "please bless..." and she says "Daddy" etc. The other day Mike says "we are thankful for..." and she said "your welcome." We both started busting up (reverently of course.) I've decided that I really love having a two year old, she is so cool!
