Princess Meli

Update time!  Let's start with the youngest...
Meli:

She is 14 months now. Talking her little talk and then throwing big words out when she feels like it.  She can say baby lion, up, shoes, bow, puppy, nana (banana),tiger, hey, hi, me-me, take it, eat,diaper, poop-poop, this please and Mae Mae. Baby girl loves to rough house.  After storytime, Colin and her will pretend to be lions (Mae is the baby lion) and they growl at each other and then take turns getting one another.  It is super cute.

Even though our little princess has the cutest little personality and is usually in a very good mood, laughing and smiling all of the time - she is starting to throw tantrums.  This is a whole new area for us in the world of kids.  Colin never went through that phase.  So we are learning.  One thing she does is funny but of course we do not laugh...sometimes I smile but I cover my mouth...she only does it to Will for some reason, but if he says no or gets her in trouble, she stands there very quiet (preparing for the scene that is about to unfold)... Then she slowly gets a pouty face and proceeds to start crying like she has been really hurt.  She looks at daddy and then me.  It is so funny.  I think she believes she has Will wrapped around her little finger, which she does...but man she learned that one early.

Mae loves Colin so much.  She thinks he is the funniest thing ever.  He can make her smile no matter how upset she is.  She also likes to mimic him.  So he will do a face and then she will. They actually have a little routine down that is super cute.  Another thing that cheers her up is going on a walk.  She loves it.  Calms her right down. We usually do a nightly walk, unless it is just too hot and humid. 

I need to weigh her but I am guessing around 22 lbs. Actually I weighed her tonight and she is 20.5 lbs.  Here are some recent pictures:

We had a picnic brunch at the park today.  Mae had a blast running around while Colin kicked his soccer ball with daddy.
