- She asks to do something and then says "yeah" before you can say anything. It's usually accompanied by vigorous head nodding.
- She "gets" you. She will chase you while she has her arms out and she's wiggling her fingers until she catches you and then she screams softly while she tickles you. It ends with everyone in a fit of giggles. (I'll get a video of this and post it asap.)
- When you change her diaper, she says, "Bum bum! Bum bum!" The way she says it is just adorable.
- She spins in circles until she gets so dizzy that she falls over laughing.
- She runs as fast as she can. Watching her run like that always makes us laugh.
- When she sings, she gets very shy, so she does it softly and it's extremely sweet.
- She tells everyone we meet that I'm her mama. I feel so special!
- She tells you about something and she gestures and changes tone and everything, but it's baby talk. (I miss the baby talk.)
- She tells another child in a store, "pretty," as she's pointing at them. They always look so tickled and surprised!
- When you ask her to do something, like throw something away or put dirty clothes in the laundry and she does it with tons of enthusiasm.
Truthfully I can think of a million more cute things that she does, but these are some of my current favorites.Mireya just gets cuter and sweeter every day. We have entered into the terrible twos, and those are the one thing that I can say with conviction are NOT cute. The tantrums are NOT cute. The hitting is NOT cute. The screaming and high pitched yelling that makes Jason's hearing aid shut off, are NOT cute. Her little face is pretty cute even when it's scrunched up all mad, but I still would prefer to see her smiling and not freaking out. Thankfully, she's happy WAY more than upset. It is always over something she can't have or something she can't do. I can see how it would be frustrating.
