What to do...

the day you turn 18 months old

(shown in pictures of the lovely Rachel Claire)

1. bang on the screen until your Mama lets you come outside to play

2. Spend some quality time with your big sister & BFF, Olivia

3. Become a little dare-devil & try to climb the rock-wall/ladder on the swing-set.

Lead your Mama to think that you will not be able to do it. And let her take a couple of pictures of you attempting it. Only accomplish to get 3 rungs up before your Mama drops the camera on the ground & grabs you in a frenzy! (I'm telling you, it scared me half to death even though she was a mere 4 - 5 inches off the ground!)
4. Look utterly offended that your Mama didn't have the confidence in you to let you tempt fate by climbing the entire ladder.

5. Go down the slide with your big sister

6. Forgive your Mama for her lack of confidence in you when she decides to give you a lift! Secretly get back at her by pulling her hair.



7. Scream like a wild banschee when the tricycle throws you on the hard brick patio

8. Get refreshed by drinking a big ol' McDonald's Sweet Tea

9. Feeling re-energized by the sweet tea, try to climb up the slide just like Olivia did

10. Decide to go on a joy ride with your 4 year old sister behind the wheel (not really folks, they climbed in when I was cleaning my car out & Olivia buckled them up)

All in all, it was an excellent day! I cannot believe my little baby girl is 18 months old!
