Girls Just Wanna... What?

If anybody knows me or read my previous blogs before I deleted and started fresh then you know my love for babies is deep. I got pregnant by my loving husband when I was 18 and gave birth to my first child at 19. At that time I decided to become an expert, and I did that very well. My 3 kids are great and I know ALOT about raising babies now. Putting my own children aside, I have had a big hand in other babies as well. I've worked/volunteered my gifts through out my community. So, just the other day I babysat my niece Kaylee for the first time. I want to share my experience with you and I promise the mother knows and agrees with my every word... so as to not offend anybody. *(but if i did would i care.. hmmm)...

Kaylee, cute enough.....


No, very cute... look at those eyes





Eating her bowl and her snack, good girl....



Mommy left around 9:20a.m., my 4 year old and I took her in the boys room and played toys with her. We both sat on the floor and got out the non-choke-able things that we own and had all kinds of good fun for maybe 10-15 minutes. And thats when it started, a whimper, a tear, a cry. Malachi is like " I didn't scare her, I didn't hurt her... why is she crying?" I picked her up and held her, sat her on my lap and continued to try to make her content. Very soon the whimper became an unmistakable cry. I got up and paced the house with her, changed her diaper, fed her baby food, gave her a bottle.... all in vain, the crying continued.




This was her face for the most part....


None to pleased with my expertise.
I on the other hand was never upset, I understand that not only is she a baby but she is a girl. Life is rough. Being a baby it's hard to communicate your real feelings and people should just figure it out. I understand you've tried everything, but try harder!!! Let alone when it's a girl involved. You think it's hard to have a relationship with a girl that's "mature" try having one with a girl that's not. Eyes opened, girls are high maintenance from birth, really I've seen the difference. I have 2 boys and 1 girl, I love her but oh my....@&*%#.
Especially since I don't deal with this on a regular basis now a days I was very fine with it happening. I just miss babies....

Anyway, after a half hour to 45 min of crying I got a half hour to 45 min of....



A calm, sleeping, peaceful baby...
