A Monkey Says...

A Visit from a Unicorn!

Long ago, okay, maybe not that long ago, my cousin Lisa found this super duper fun unicorn costume for Mya.  Since we had a lot of time to kill this weekend, I tried it on her.  And go figure...she liked it!  This kid won't keep a hat on her head for the life of her, but she wouldn't take the unicorn head/hood off!  She thought it was funny to see herself in the mirror more than anything!

The unicorn ran away from me and tried shutting the door on me.  Alas, my camera taking skills were quicker than her door shutting skills!

Then she went to check herself out in the mirror AGAIN and give her crazy unicorn twin a kiss!

Then the unicorn ran away again...don't you seriously love that tail? 

Then the unicorn finally decided she had been "horsing" around enough and took time out to read a book.  Ahhh...the life of a unicorn!!

A Mommy and Mya Weekend

This was Greg's weekend to work, so Mya and I were buddies all weekend long!  So, what do two hip chicks do all weekend?  Well,

we play with shapes...

we wrestle Winnie the Pooh...

we play with things that entertained us MONTHS ago, like a baby bouncer...

we play peek-a-boo behind doors...

we build towers with blocks...

and we laugh...A LOT!

We also kept busy by wrapping baby dolls up in blankets and rocking them, reading zillions of books, chasing each other up and down the hallway and eating lots of food!  My favorite part is when she's ready to go down for a nap.  She'll bring her blanket to me and want to sit on my lap on the couch and snuggle.  That's all she needs.  I know she's getting bigger and more independent, but I hope that never stops.

The Barefoot Bandit

Socks seem to bug Mya now.  She tries to take them off whenever she can.  This morning I went in to get her out of her crib and discovered her socks on the floor.  So, I put them back on and plopped her on the changing table to change the diaper.  Instantly she started pulling at her socks again!  The only way her socks stay on are if she has shoes on and sometimes she pries her shoes off in order to get at her socks again!  

When I was little I apparently liked taking my shoes off all the time.  So, my daycare lady's husband duct taped my shoes to my legs so that I would keep them on.  If Mya keeps this up, I may need to invest in some duct tape!

Mya In Action!

Last night I caught Mya in the middle of attempting to climb up on her rocking chair.  In her defense, it was harder to climb up since she did just have a rockin' meal and so her belly was a bit swollen!  I particularly love the part where she tries rocking it herself!

A Girl and Her Chair

Mya has sat in her little rocking chair before, however, this week she has learned how  climb up onto it.  Many times she will sit backwards because she hasn't quite figured out the turning part!  Sometimes she will try to rock it herself!  It's funny how something that has been around her entire life (short as it has been), is just now gaining her attention!  She loves it!  She runs to it when we get home and it entertains her for quite a while!

We also ran out of milk, juice and water.  We had to resort to giving her a Sam Adams.  ONLY KIDDING!
