- You can tell what she's thinking by just looking at her face - her eyes & mouth are very expressive:)
- She is a little "parrot" - repeating everything but not correctly
- when she gets an owie - she always insists on a kiss
- if you say anything to her she says "why"
- she pretty much eats anything we give her but she is sometimes a little more selective than 4 months ago. She doesn't finish every morsel on her plate anymore -which is good b/c she is almost wearing a size 4 like her sister (we've gone from 24 months to size 4 clothes in 4 months!)
- she still does the chinese thing when eating soup or anything in a bowl - when she gets down to the end, she'll try to drink it up and push it in her mouth with her spoon:)
- she is very affectionate - loves to give and receive hugs & kisses and telling her m&d "i Love you"
- she likes her babies! and to mother them too by wrapping them up in blankets or stroller them around:)
- she now has her ears pierced like her sister, mom & grandmas
- she loves playing in the bath tub, brushing her teeth & doesn't mind wearing lotion now:) & she is pretty good about me doing her hair...
- she has gnarly bed head in the morning!
- she's so smart & loves to count to 10.
- she likes to sit and color, bead and read
- she will hopefully get tubes in her ears soon. She's had fluid in her ears ever since we've had her home - they tell us that she hears us like we are talking under water -no wonder why her speach is so muffled... fluid in ears & repaired palate...
- she likes to ride bikes & scooters
- when none of her siblings are around to play with she enjoys playing with our dog "oreo"
- all her brother needs to say is that she gets to go play with the "ladybugs" (the name of her class at church) and she'll burst into tears - although, once she's there it only takes 5 min. for her to settle down...
- "be happy" is a phrase that she hears form us alot - she tends to have a sour looking face at times and just needs a gentle reminder to smile and be happy:) she immediately gives us her precious smile that lights up her face!
- When traveling in the car on looooonnnng trips - she like to sleep with her pillow over her face.
- she likes books & puzzles
- her speach is nasally
- she likes candy (who doesn't???)
- she loves it when her grandparents visit!
- when her hands/fingers get cold, she tells us that they are "owie"
- she know almost ALL her bodyparts!
- her belly laugh is so funny & usually gets everyone smiling and laughing:)
- she loves it when her brothers chase her
- her favorite songs are: Jesus Loves me, Jesus loves the little children, ABC's, and Toby Mac's new song "City on our Knees" :)
- She falls down or bonks her head SEVERAL times a day! Brayden enjoys keeping count:)
That's all i can think of right now... i'll add to it later:)

That was such a great post! I am so glad to hear she's doing so well. I can relate to the ear fluid--Ty has it too. He'll be getting tubes when he has his palate repaired on Dec. 8th. Anyway, Maylynn just sounds like she's doing great! That is great to hear, as I know things weren't as easy at first. Congrats and good job parents!
