Kayla's latest 'thing' is to criticize me. She likes to criticize my 1) mood, 2) hair style, and 3) clothing.
1. Mood
If she's in a bad mood, I call her "Grumpy Gills" (I have no idea where that came from!). Anyways, she hates it. She's started telling me that I'm Grumpy Gills, or that I'm "being bad today" or that I'm "not nice."
2. Hair Style
As Kayla was watching me do my hair this morning, she said, "Mom, you always do your hair the same way, down or in a pony." I told her that's because I didn't know what to do with my hair ever, to which she replied, "You should wear it in a braid." So I did.
3. Clothing
Also this morning (I know, a lot of criticism to take in a matter of 10 minutes!), she said to me, "Mom, you always wear the same thing. I think you don't wash your clothes, you only wash ours."
I think she might be the one to nominate me for "What Not to Wear." (Which I would definitely be a prime candidate for!)
After struggling with infertility for three years, we were blessed with the birth of Matthew and Kayla in March 2011 (by in vitro) , Nathan in October 2013 (by frozen embryo transfer), and Olivia in August 2015 (naturally!). We are loving every moment (well, almost!) of our lives as parents.
"you should wear it in a braid" - that is SO adorable that she is giving you hair suggestions!!!! love it :)
