Why did I even bother?

Here was our conversation this evening:
Miya: Mommy, I'm really hungry.
Mommy: I am making dinner right now.
Miya: What are you making?
Mommy: Spaghetti and meatballs and some salad.
Miya: Yeah! Hooray! I love spaghetti.

Next we sit down to dinner
Miya: Mommy, I didn't want meatballs.
Mommy: I thought you liked meatballs. Just try one.
Miya: No. I don't want meatballs take them off. (pushes her plate away)
Mommy is in a good mood so she just eats the meatballs and pushes the plate back to Miya.
Miya: I didn't want sauce! Just noodles.
Mommy: Sorry, but I already put the sauce on so you will just have to eat it and I will try to remember no sauce next time.
Miya starts whining and won't eat her dinner. Mommy must be in a good mood because she takes the plate and dumps it all in a strainer and rinses off all the sauce.
Miya: Mommy, I want some of your dinner.
Mommy: Nope, sorry. Eat your dinner, you said you didn't want sauce so I washed it off. Now eat it.
Miya: I want sauce. This time I will eat it. Please have some sauce?
Mommy: (through gritted teeth) fine!
Mommy gets some sauce and puts in on. Miya takes one bite.
Miya: I want some of that on my noodles.
Mommy: That is salad dressing and it won't be good on your spaghetti. It goes on salad. Do you want some salad?
Miya: sure.
Mommy gets some salad and dressing.
Miya: Mommy, I want too much dressing.
Mommy: eat what you've got and then I will get you more.
Miya: I am done. I want to watch a movie...

Who knew a hat could be so fun?

PS-She is 6 months old already! Where does the time go?

Miya's Birthday

I can't believe my little girl is 3!!!

She wanted a Princess and the Frog cake, so this was how it turned out (after a couple of tries).
