Terrible Two's....already???

This picture pretty much explains my life lately. A screaming toddler! Wow, what happened to my perfect little angel?! She has been throwing the worst tantrums lately! Spoiled doesn't begin to describe her, and she hates to be told 'no'. In fact she hates the word so much, she decides that it is necessary to turn into a devil child and attempts to blow mommy's ear drums with her screeches! I've always heard of the "terrible twos" but I thought I had a little more time before I had to worry about that! Wow, this is making me re-think having another baby for a loooong time! lol


Overall she has been great. Ayla had her 18 month check up a few weeks ago. She weighed in at 27 lbs 4 oz and 34" tall (although I believe she is taller, the nurse had a really hard time getting her to stay still...lol). She is finally starting to come out with some new words, but "mommy" STILL isn't one of them :( Stubborn little girl! She reached the minimum number of words to avoid speech therapy for another few months. The pediatrician wants to re-evaluate her at her next appointment and make a decision.

Ayla and I are leaving for South Carolina next week! My little nephew is due this week! I'm so excited to get the news..... I can't wait to meet him :) Ayla hasn't met her Auntie Missy or her grandma Cheryl yet, so this will be a very exciting trip for everyone! We are staying down for a week, and I'm hoping to be able to take a drive to Charleston for a day trip to see some old friends!

Well thats about it for now! I'm going to really try to update more often :)
