busybody

Nothing quite prepares you for a one and a half year old. They are everywhere! Maggie thinks she is so big and wants to do everything I am doing. For example, Mom is putting on makeup, Maggie wants makeup. Mom is in the shower, Maggie wants to get in too. I'm brushing my teeth and within minutes she is brushing hers. It's hard for me to get anything done lately. A while ago I was doing dishes. She'll stand below me pushing my legs away from the sink so I can stop and play with her. So here is Maggie doing dishes with Mom.

Yesterday I was trying to put together my grocery list. So I got out every pot and pan and some wooden spoons so she could go to town! Within a minute she is pushing my bum off the chair saying, "UP!" for ME to come do it with her.
After getting nothing down a few days ago on the computer for young women I went into our family where we came up with this.
Our first fort!!

Maggie watching "Curious George" or as she calls him "Judge!"
She is at such a fun age right now... but man! I am wiped out at the end of every day!

This morning Maggie kept trying to reach for something on our dresser. She kept saying "apple". "What do you want?" I asked her. She kept saying apple reaching towards the dresser. There was clearly not an apple on our dresser so I tried to hand her my shiny watch... No. I tried her toothbrush... No. I notice the apple sign on Caden's iPad. "You want this?!"
My 16 month old response, "Hehehehe" grinning from ear to ear. That was it!
What the heck!
