Lauryn's Personality Comes Alive



Lauryn has definitely developed quite the personality in the past few weeks. When she wants something, she WANTS it. Whether it is at the high chair or on the floor, she has mastered the hand pounding, back arching temper tantrum. We have heard the loudest screams and seen the most tears these past few weeks. Let's just hope this is a "phase", otherwise, we will both be bald in under a year.

Lauryn is into everything! She loves the cupboards, the bookshelves, and pulling everything off the shelves of her changing table. She loves to take guided walks, and when we have had enough of "walking" with her, she will let us know that she is not finished with one of her tantrums. She has had her fair share of bumps and scratches, and she got her first black eye today. Eric said we better call social services before they come find us. She fell eyeball first over her toy bin and onto another toy that attacked her. Well, at least that is the story we will share when the social workers come knocking on our door.

She is past the stage of us feeding her food, but doesn't understand how to control her intake. When it comes to bananas and strawberries, she is definitely the chipmunk baby. We love watching her eat new foods - today it was beef ravioli....oh how fun that was all over the floor!

Her vocabulary consists of lots of "da-da", "ma-ma", "na-na", "ta-ta", "ba-ba" and all the like. Oh yeah, almost forgot "wwwwwwwwwaaahhhhhhhhhhh"... She has been getting her 2 front teeth over the past 10 days or so, and we are ready for them to be in so she feels a bit better.

Off to catch her before she crawls up the china cabinet.
