Little Miss Smarty Pants has figured out how to get attention. She has discovered that I will come running when she cries. She doesn't cry because she needs anything. She is crying because she wants attention. You know how I can tell? Because she stops crying when she sees me and gives the biggest grin. And I only encourage this behavior when I smile back at her. I mean, how could I not? Her smiles are infectious.
Her new discovery has made bed time especially hard this week. Ugh. Great. She gets totally pissed when I put her in her crib, say good night and leave the room. That when the tears start flowing......or shall I say fake tears. I am doing my best to be strong and let her figure out how to soothe herself without me looming over her crib. I am fearful that if I don't bed time will become a nightmare. I keep having flashbacks of those kids on Super Nanny who become a total PITA at bedtime. I DO NOT want one of those kids!
I guess this means that I am going to have my hands full from here on out. And with a smile like hers, one day she is going to break some boys heart!
Anyway, here are some pics I took of her the other day. She is such a happy little baby....

Awww.. I think those kids on Supernanny are anomolies. They screened for the worst bunch of kids. Watching that show would make my blood pressure go up. lol But no matter what, it won't be as bad as you anticipate. :-)
Lets hope you don't ever see me and Macy on Super Nanny!
