mommy blogger. As a mother that has suffered the loss of multiple children while becoming a mother of the bride to our oldest, raising 2 young adults, an 8 year old preemie and a 6 year old tornado, I have a lot to share. I can't guarantee you will agree with everything I say, but I think you may just enjoy it. This is our life, the good, bad and ugly. 
Trouble Maker Alert!
She turned 13 months old yesterday, and with that big 13 number came a newfound independence and difficulty listening to what mama wants her to do. ;)
She is hilarious, but getting into mischief... Technically that means doing something annoying, and while she is not annoying me, she is scaring me to death moment by moment and minute to minute. It really is non stop!
Her favorite thing to do now, is climb the stairs. You may be thinking that I am a big dummy and should get a gate...this is not so easy.
The bottom of our stairs are very wide, and there is a round wall...making it a little more difficult to find the right gate to use.
She also likes to pull herself up to stand, and then lets go, but has ZERO balance and just waits for someone to catch her. I feel like I am running a marathon most days.
There is not a single ounce of fear in this little girl whatsoever! That is frightening for this mama.
Anyway, she now has 4 teeth, and number 5 is making it's way through. Less than 2 weeks ago, there weren't any teeth. When she does something, she does it big! She also grinds her new teeth, much to my dismay. What a horrible noise!
Getting so very big, and changing so fast!
