February has not been the best month for our little Paisley! Once she finally got better from having Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease, we found out her Pneumonia was back. She is MUCH better now and we are going to follow up with another chest x-ray and blood work to make sure it is gone for good this time!

We went to our farm last weekend and had fun riding around in our buggy and looking for arrowheads after all of the rain we have had. We didn't find any this time though!

This is Paisley showing me that "Deee" (Dozier) is on her dress. When we go outside to see Dozier, she loves to tell him to STAY! Another favorite saying is not nice!

Here's little monkey having some mac and cheese....one of the few things I can get her to eat. Sometimes she will eat a good meal and other days she turns her nose up to her favorite foods, it really just depends on her mood.
Paisley turned 18 months on the 18th of February. I can't believe it. She's really getting to be alot of fun. Some things are getting easier because she can talk a little bit and can understand pretty much everything we say but she is also becomming more and more independent and wants to do things herself (like fastening buckles) and she has been majorly testing her boundaries. She has never had to go to time out at school nor has she ever been mean to a friend at school. At home is a different story. She actually had her first trip to time out at home yesterday for hitting Pumpkin twice and then head butting her was strike 3.
Sleeping has become more of a problem again lately. Sometimes she will not go to bed once I put her in her crib and she stands up and throws all of her paci's across the room...and then I go in and she says, "hiii" like she is wide awake...shes so silly! So bedtime has become an anxiety once again in our house but she's usually down for the count by 9 at the latest. Paisley also ocassionaly will not take an afternoon nap. If she's not asleep by 2:30 or 3 I will just keep her up and put her to bed around 6:30. I have to deal with a bad mood for the afternoon but get a relaxing evening in return :)
For Valentine's Day we got Paisley a potty. She has been telling us when she goes in her diaper so we wanted to go ahead and get the potty just so she could get used to it. I think it was just because I caught her at just the right time but she used the potty for the first time last week- #1 and #2...Troy and I were shocked and trying so hard not to laugh while she was doing her thing. I was SO proud. It's so funny the things mommies get excited about!
