It has now been two months since the bambina has entered our lives and she has become pretty good at communicating what she wants (and doesn't want!) with us. For example we know she wants:
to lay on her changing pad and chit chat with anyone who will listen,
to go swimming whenever possible,
to sit like a big girl,
to have a comfortable place to rest,
to be silly,
to spend hours playing,
to share secrets and naps with her bestie,
to coordinate her outfits,
and to discuss celebrity gossip with her aunt.
However, she does not care for:
being dressed in a huge, puffy (and I assume itchy) dress for her baptism,
being shoved into her car seat in the same huge, puffy dress for the long (5 minute) ride to church,
the first dip,
being dressed like a nerd (eww, Mom, it looks like I tucked my shirt into my jeans!),
or wearing the adorable, hot pink, baby flip-flops that Mommy carefully selected and pictured her wearing while traipsing about town on our errands, accepting compliments left and right from passersby. In fact, she rejects all shoes, which might be part of the reason she is screaming in her baptism photos...hmm.
But one thing for which I am grateful is that no matter what, sometimes all a girl wants is her Mommy.
Happy two-month-day Baby Girl! We are so glad you came along!
