Welcome to My Baby’s Mind Mondays! If you’d like to participate, the url for the button is “http://averygoodyear.net/images/babysmindmondays.png” and I ask that you link it to “http://averygoodyear.net/?cat=192“. Leave a comment letting me know you’ve posted, and I’ll add a list of participants to the end of each weekly post. You can post about your 2 day old, your 2 year old, your 22 year old, your dog, the stray cat in your neighbourhood… whatever, if you call someone your baby, I want to know what you see when you peek into that mind!
Here’s the picture that inspired me this week:
HEY MOM!
Check out this sweet new trick Daddy taught me. That’s right, now I can let you know what I think of you in ways other than making stinkfaces. Even better, you seem to think this is absolutely hilarious, then you wave your tongue all over the place and look silly. See Mom, there’s the difference between us: I’m cute, you’re old. I’ve got cool hair, you’ve got frizzy.
Oh, except for when you brush my hair ALL OVER THE PLACE like I’m some sort of 80s punk rocker:
And then put a clip right in the front:
It’s not fair. I don’t do this kinda stuff to you! Just you wait until the first time you let me play hairdresser with you. Daddy doesn’t have any hair, so you can’t fob it off on him, and the dogs are short-haired, so you can’t distract me with them. I’m looking forward to it.
Love,
Maia.

Are you sure her father isn’t Gene Simmons?? I laugh every time I look at this!! It’s like you can SEE the determination in her eyes to stick her tongue out as far as she can!
I know! I just wish it were a clearer pic, but I’m sure I’ll get one someday
Ohmigod that tongue! Ha, that is so adorable!
Gretchen sticks hers out all the time — she wants to lick everything!
I love that picture of Maia sticking her tongue out.
I do the same thing as you and stick my tongue out at Lily when she does it and I end up looking like a big goof I’m sure.

That kid has a seriously long tongue! It is our job as parents to make them look as silly as possible. It’s to make up for the toddler tantrums and the teenage years.
Wow….that’s a lot of tongue!
A fellow mommy blogger passed onto me an little blog award and I thought of you as one of my mentions. Come check out my blog for details!
Happy Monday.
The tongue sticking out, my goodness I LOVE it. How did he teach her to do that, I want to teach my little guy. And yes her tongue is long, long long…
Thanks all for the comments :] It is a pretty cute trick that makes us laugh and laugh…
@Ms. Core: I dunno, he just kept sticking his tongue out at her, wiggling it around, and making sounds. She loved it, and after awhile (weeks!) she finally figured out how to stick hers out :]
