My kid is a diva... and she acts like she's 13 sometimes. For real. I mean, look at this girl.
At our last swim lesson (which sadly was weeks ago, since we were out of town last week & the little one isn't feeling too great today), she decided I'm no longer allowed to touch her while she's in the pool. Why, you might ask, would an 18-month-old not want her mama to support her while she's in water over her head? She was totally flirting with the lifeguard. I'm not kidding. She was batting her (ridiculously long & gorgeous) eyelashes at him, waving, and smiling. If I got between her view of him, she'd say "Nay! Nay!" (toddler-speak for "Mo-om! Get away! You're embarrassing me!") and push me out of the way. We finally reached a compromise where I could support her in the water and keep her from drowning only if I stayed on the far side of her and did not get between her and the object of her affection. Sigh.
Kind of the same thing she said when we took this picture. "OMG, Mom! Do I have to take another picture with you guys? SO embarrassing." Yes, child. It's Mother's Day. Suck it up.
Just look at her at our fabulous brunch on Mother's Day. And look at her sweet cousin, S. I think sometimes S doesn't know what to make of my Kumquat Diva.
Besides her general diva-ish-ness, she LOVES to pose. I've posted her "Cheese!" face before. Since then, she's added a little head tilt and arm positioning.
And check out that knee.
Oh yes, her mama's in big trouble.
She is adorable as ever! Love the last outfit, those rain boots are sweeeeet!
