The other day, I had to take her to one my appointments and she was sitting in the stroller when they called me back to take my blood pressure and do a finger prick and she started crying hysterically. All of the nurses and M.A.'s were trying to calm her down but all she saw were women in scrubs coming at her which made her cry even more. I kept repeating over and over that we weren't there for her and that the doctor was going to take care of mama and then she started patting me on my leg and saying "mama!" She is such a little sweetheart but that wasn't the worse of it. When we got called back into the examination room, she started going crazy again. My doctor asked if it was ok to pick her up and I said sure but that only made things worse as she started crying even harder thinking she was going to do something to her. I took her from the doctor as she was listening to the baby's heartbeat and Macyn was pretty much laying on top of me and her tears and snot were starting to drip on my face. It wasn't until I gave her her favorite fruit snack that she was able to calm down...
Recently we took a little trip to a local farmer's market and along with selling fruits, veggies and the usual fare they also had chicken coops, llamas and ponies. Macyn was a little shy at first but she eventually warmed up, especially to the ponies. I can just hear her asking for a pony for Christmas already...One of the little girls that we went with started trying to feed the pony leaves and Macyn was right there next to her copying her. She loves to watch the older kids at the park and imitate all the "fun" things that they do (read: all of the crazy stunts that older kids pull, 5 feet above the ground, Macyn will try without even batting an eyelash!)
Macyn recently discovered all the fun she can have with stickers. I had to take the stickers and hide them because she kept trying to put them everywhere. I still find stickers in the most random places!
Here's a little story that I unfortunately don't have any pictures of because I was too busy freaking out. I was changing Macyn's diaper in the morning and I will usually let her run around the nursery naked while I pick out her clothes for the day. She had a bit of a rash so I wanted to air it out and give her a little relief from the diaper. In the room, there's a table where I keep the diaper cream and diapers and underneath there's a basket full of wipes and other things. Well, Macyn crawled under the table and was playing in the basket and I saw her taking out the wipes. I told her to stop and then I heard a little squishy sound. I moved the basket and there Macyn was, playing with her own poop. She did a #2 on the floor and was playing with it. I screamed and picked her up to wash her hands and saw that she had some on her foot so I washed those off too. I picked her up in such a hurry because I didn't want her to put her hand in her mouth (she is still a finger sucker) and I ended up with poop on my shirt!!

There have been a handfull of times where I let her run free without a diaper and she peed but this was the first poop! I have to say it was definitely a learning experience for the both of us!!!
