Today I give you two videos - one because it was fun to be on the press box at Thunder of Drums and the other because I haven't given you a video of Miss M in a while.
Not much to write right now as I'm very tired, but there are new pictures in the gallery. If you need the password let me know. (it's the nickname we called Muiread when I was pregnant)
I have been asked, “so what do you do with your time now that you’re not marching?” Well, I really haven’t found my “swagger” yet when it comes to relaxing, but here’s a quick run down on my weekend activities:
Friday night –
Really when you write it all out, it seems like a lot. Of course there was playing with Muiread all mixed in there too, but that should be a given. Boring I know, but you asked.
So - you think you need a baby update do ya? Well, as you can see by the picture, it's spring in Minnesota (finally) and she is as cute as always. (and I planted flowers, who knew).
Muiread spends most of her days in a state of perpetual motion. There is no down time and she seems to always need to be doing something. (I’m note sure where she gets this from). She hasn’t figured out running YET, but I’m sure it’s just mere moments away. Due to the constant motion, and hummingbird metabolism, she is still a peanut weighing in at 19lbs, 2 oz.
Her vocabulary is expanding with her favorite words being: Dada, diaper, kitty cat, dog, thank you, uh oh, this, shoes, fish. (of course sometimes they all sound like dada with different inflections and she’s still on a mama strike). If she should ever call you dada, don’t be offended. All adults are dada.
Muiread’s receptive language is what amazes us the most. She takes direction fairly well and we know she pretty much understands everything we say. (clean that language up kids). She also enjoys cleaning up her toys possibly more than making a mess.
So there you have it, an update. Perhaps I’ll try to do a little better at this. However I do have a friend that hasn’t updated his blog since August so I don’t feel so bad.
I uploaded new pictures to the Gallery last week but really didn't do a post to alert people of that. I figure only about 6 people still check this thing anyway. (just kidding). When looking over the photos today, I decided she may actually finally look a little like me and no as much like Brandon. So here's a ROUGH side-by-side (I'm at work so my programs are limited. The picture of Muiread is from last week so about 17-months old and the one of me is from my 2nd Birthday.
