Millie Lately

Oh Millie, where to start?! The last few months Millie has just gone through a huge growth spurt all around. It's seriously amazing how much she has grown, how much she is learning and taking in, how much she is talking, and how much more fiesty she getting. ;) It is extremely helpful that she is so independent and smart, but it does mean that there are more consequences since she does know what's going on. 

Millie is hilarious! She literally makes me laugh everyday, all day, and even when I have to get mad at her there are sometimes when I have to leave the room because she is so funny and I don't want her thinking I am laughing at the thing she is getting in trouble for. 

She is such an AMAZING little sister. Her and Braxton don't get a long all of the time and Braxton really has learned that he can get a rise out of her, which he thinks is a blast, but despite all of their fighting I couldn't imagine not having my Millie girl to help me take care of her big brother. She tries to feed him all of the foods that she is eating (even if it makes Brax choke), she does share with him or does a trade haha. She loves to help me change his diaper and tells me when Braxton toots and poops. haha She loves to help dress him. She will grab all of his clothes, shoes, and even reminds me to do his hair. She tells me when he is crying. The cutest thing is when she grabs Braxton's hand and pulls him around to take him different places. HE LOVES THAT! 

Braxton was sick this last week and Millie was so good at taking care of him. She would give him his bottle, and tuck him in with his favorite blanket. Melted my heart!

 Millie knows how to get what she wants...go to dad! haha Marc kind of gets suckered into her cute smiles so she knows to go to dad if she wants a treat, a sip of soda, and cheese its. ha She goes to Marc for her music fix too. She will go up to Marc if he has his lap top and will say "song, song" they will listen to all of Marc's motivating songs like "Radioactive" by imagine dragons. In the car she is always asking for a "song" and is starting to say some of the words/sounds to the songs....It's too funny.

 I don't know where they came from but Millie also has some worries or anxieties about certain things. When we are outside and she hears the lawn mower she is OBSESSED with it (not in a good way) she will be having the time of her life playing and if she hears that or something that sounds like that she just looks around trying to find it and gets all nervous. It's pretty funny but we will have to get over that quick because they mow the lawns a ton around here. haha

Millie is really into coloring nowadays and knows all of her colors. She has to tell me what each color is she is using and puts it right in my face. She gets so excited that she can say them all...her favorite color to look for in the crayon box is tan. haha She will find it and shout "tan". She is letting me help her make circles on her paper now and loves to say circle. Another thing she loves is church! Holy cow does she love church (it probably has to do with the fact that she gets to look at books, color, eat snacks, and go to nursery but it's a start.) She knows who Jesus is and if we are walking down the hall and she sees a picture of Jesus on the wall she stops and yells Jesus. She knows what the temple looks like and anything that looks similar is also a temple (the Disney castle is one of those things). haha

look at that hair!!

There is so much she is doing now I could go on forever! haha We are so proud of our Millie girl and are so lucky to have her in our family! I don't know what I would do without that spunky, sassy, diva of a girl! I think she is going to be a good big sister when this little guy gets here. Love our Millie!
