Big Girl

So, it has been a long time ... again, and I wanted to post some new pictures of Molly. She is getting so big and doing so many things these days, I get scared that I am going to miss out on something. Everyday is something new. So here are a few things that have been going on!


So we were getting our bath this morning before we went and had our 1st haircut. Now this was very hard for me, because I swore I wouldn't cut her hair until she was at least 2, but her hair has gotten so long!
She saw the camera and kept saying cheese.
Miss Lauren cut her hair (she also cuts mine) and she is a friend of the family's since we were babies. Molly did really well! She didn't want the gown on, but she didn't cry at all! Molly wouldn't look at Miss Lauren the whole time she cut her hair!


Then, as we are getting closer and closer to the ripe old age of 2, our tantrums get bigger and bigger. So the other day I couldn't help myself and I took some pictures of her. Molly can get sooo mad so quick! And she is a very strong willed little girl - which I know can be such a blessing for her! I continually ask the Lord to guide Joe and I on how to deal with the outbursts, and to channel the strong willedness positively.

She wouldn't look at me she was so mad. I don't even remember why.
This was when she got upset that NaNa left her. She cried at the front door and she doesn't want anyone touching her. Oh, and we must have our blanket with us...
This was the same day as before (it was quite a trialing day for me, that's for sure!). We had gotten home from grocery shopping, and she became very upset that she had to come in the house rather than play in snow ... she proceeded to cry. THEN when I attempted to take her coat off, she laid herself on the floor. I started to laugh (I know, but it was just sooo dramatic). She was over it the minute I took the camera out!

Molly is also saying lots of words now and trying to put words together in 2 or 3 word sentences. It's fun to listen to her talk and now be able to understand some of the things that she is saying. She knows a ton of animals and their noises that they make. She is so inquisitive, and always seems to be saying "What's that?" "Who's that?" Who's there?". My favorite is when she says "I dunno?" and puts her hands up in the air. What a blessing it is to see her grow and learn new things!

Molly has a DEEP LOVE for her blankets. This would be her blanket at NaNa and Pop's house. She must know where her blanket it as ALL times. Even if it is in the wash (which I try to sneak in) she will sit by the machines and yell "ANKET!" until it is ready... she cracks me up.
She loves this game that you play with her blanket, where you chase her around the house and try to steal her blanket. She litterally will play this game for hours....


Putting her "mun nee" in her piggy bank with Daddy. I think she has more money than I do by now!
