I knew it wouldn't take long for Micron to get her "footwork" down. These days, she's been walking a lot, which only translates to, "No, Mama, I'm not getting back into the stroller OR my car seat. Suck it!" Ok, she doesn't "say" that last part, but it sure feels like that's what's going on inside her head as she watches me with beady eyes. Micro, as an infant, would always cry when we put him in his carseat. It became a habit for me to tune him out for the entire 2-4 minutes it took (often depended on how hard I fought back his punches and kicks) to strap him in. It was not pretty, people, not pretty at all. Micron, on the other hand, wasn't so bad. In fact, I know my son was way worse. BUT NOW, NOW is Different. In the past few days since she's enjoying her newfound freedom. She no longer wants to be "contained." And we all know how important containment is to us parents.
The kiddos have been under the weather the past week and it's been no fun for me either. That means we've had to cancel usual playdates and limit being outdoors. The weather has begun to change with early mornings and evenings being cold. It also means frequent meltdowns and lots of frustrations. What's worse is, I've got to get these two in decent condition because they'll be in a wedding this Friday. That's right, my babies are making their debut as the awfully cute twosome they are. You've seen Micro in his first tux in my previous post and this will be his second time as a ring bearer. As for Micron, she'll be wearing her first official "princess-like" dress as a flower girl. I will post pictures once the affair is done. No high expectations for perfect photos. I'll be happy if both can sit still. But, I'll be thoroughly impressed if they look in the same direction too.
