Miss Independent

Keira has been growing up like crazy. She wants to do everything herself. feed herself, wash her own hair, throw away her own diapers, (by the way she will throw a fit if i try to do it for her.) and she also LOVES to brush her own teeth. Of course I brush them for her after to make sure they are nice and clean. She is also finally starting to say more words. I was starting to feel like a bad parent. But it amazes me how fast she picks up things. I cant believe how much she is observing things around her. The other week she was at my parents and they bought her a barbie to play with when she is over there. The first thing she did was get the barbies baby and then had mommy barbie breast feed the baby barbie... REALLY? I don't give her enough credit to how much she really understands. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE that little girl. but man She is SUCH a handful lately. The whole new baby thing isn't working out for her to well anymore. She hates that mommy's (yes she finally calls me mommy now!) attention always is taken up with the new baby. She loves talking to baby and kissing baby as long as im not holding him. once i pick him up she is NOT happy. poor keira.. really breaks my heart to see her so heart broken with this new change in her life. makes me think of all the changes she will go through.. and i will be right there going through them with her. ugh... already stresses me out. Well here are some photos of my little Miss Independent Keira!!!
