T is for Toddlers... which is for Tiring! And a Song-Link Up

My daughter is almost 18 months old

and is officially ALL toddler

there is NO baby left in that girl

except that she is MY baby

my sweet, adorable, funny, smart baby girl.

I absolutely adore the age and phase she is currently in..

always watching, soaking in, and learning

AND GOING!

Yesterday I was chasing her around the house

per our usual routine

and I stopped and was like

"WHOA TODDLERS ARE TIRING"

granted I know that part of the major tiring is that I am pregnant

and I would go to bed at 8pm every night if the hubs didn't call me an old woman

but anyways..

Toddlers are tiring...

but they are also sooo rewarding

I am having so much fun watching her grow and learn

and learning right there with her.

I have all kinds of fun posts brewing about my sweet girl

But I thought I'd share a story from our WIC appt this morning

It was our first appt at the WIC here in MD

and I won't lie.. I was dreading it big time!!

I HATED WIC appts in CA.

They always looked at me like I was retarded

but anyways that's besides the point

anywayyyyy

We go to our appt

and we finally get called back

and she takes both our weights and heights

and then she says she has to do an iron test

and I am like...

doesn't that mean she has to prick us???

and I start to sort of panic

see.... I am not a fan of shots, blood, or needles

I am not a freak out melt down girl like I was as a kid

but I like warning to prep pep talk myself

Well she did have to prick us

she asked who we should have go first

and wanted Kay but I said that it'd probably be better if I went first

because if she went first she'd be crying and squirming

and I wouldn't be able to stay still for mine.

So I went first and I was like whoa ow that kind of hurt when she pricked me...

then it was Kaylee's turn and I was gearing up for the melt down

So they clean her fingers and they prick her...

and....

NOTHING.

She said oh ow and then was mesmerized by the bandaid and that was the end of it!

What the heck!

There is no way my 17 month old daughter handled a finger prick

better then I did!!!! haha

It was pretty funny!

Anyways... for this week's song link-up over at Goodnight Moon

I chose

"Never Grow Up" by Taylor Swift

it's super cute and I hope that no matter how old she gets

Kaylee always loves to snuggle and give me hugs and dance in the kitchen with me
