"Mommy, I want UP here."
To her, it's a "Bouncy Castle".
She repeatedly throws herself against the back of the couch and belly-flops on the seat. She also crawls back and forth over parent-made obstacles, taking an occasional break to "love the couch".
And then there's the slightly bizarre walk after the fun has been had.Mattaya has learned a variety of animal sounds. Here are two of her favorites:
The spaghetti-faced elephant
The spaghetti-faced owl
Mmmm--this girl LOVES Swedish meatballs!
Here's some proof of what a tease she is. Gramma Julie told her to bring MOMMY the candy bar. Since she doesn't know what it is, we fully expected her to complete the delivery. Instead, she blew right past me...
...and tried to sample it HERSELF!
So Gramma showed her "The Stash" (but didn't unwrap anything, of course).
Mattaya thinks candy bars are delicious!(Just wait until she ACTUALLY tastes one.)
Later that day, she got pretty close. Gramma Julie had some homemade chocolate chip cookies. Here Mattaya is inspecting the proposed snack.
A little taste
Yum!She demolished that thing! And what a mess she was....
Thanks for the outfit, Auntie Cindy!Our friends at church really liked it. ;)
This might be an appropriate place to mention Mattaya's "Captain Jack Sparrow walk"--hips forward, hands out, slight swagger.
We're always excited to see exactly what type of bedhead Mattaya will have each time she wakes.
Please pass the Q-tips
