臭美的英语怎么说？那么就再来中文的好了。
女生嘛，就是要臭美的（男生当然也臭美，懒之余，还要拿着，所以不显著）。连我酱紫衣着百年不变制的都臭美，懒这个特质打赢了而已。我以前只是不知道这个臭美是从什么时候开始的。从我们AMY的情况来看，是从15个半月开始嘀。
她一般是禁止我动她的，头、脸更甚。从四个月开始洗脸梳头就是大战役。最近这个情况发生了巨大的变化。脸，还是不许洗的，脏，不在乎。头发，却是一定要梳的了。
话说某个早晨，我们家新来的老保姆，我妈，陪她玩儿的专心的不得了，祖孙两个人叽叽咕咕。我，过时了的老妈子，连嘴都插不上，可是又贱招儿，回笼觉儿睡不着，百无聊赖起来，就趁敌不备，打了个漂亮的歼灭战，一举梳了8个小辫子。到了幼儿园，遭到所有的阿姨和不认识的小朋友妈妈的大力表扬。小人儿即使是在百忙的搬家具，偷听到人家说她，也会抿着嘴嘻嘻的笑，完全忘乎所以。从此，不梳辫子，不能出门。看到皮筋，就一个一个的往自己头上送。拉着妈妈的手啊啊啊叫个不停。静悄悄的坐在地上随便妈妈怎么摆弄都可以，摆弄完了，不等别人表扬呢，就要嘻嘻笑笑。15个半月就臭美至此，足见，臭美之心，人皆有之，小小人儿也不例外。

委屈的情绪
委屈的英语是什么泥？查了半天没有查到，就中文的好了。
AMY会委屈了。
首先，她会打人了。咬不过瘾，开始打了。上个星期四接她回来，阿姨说，人家小朋友就离她近了些，她就不爽，推，推不走，喊，喊无效，就打。SIGH，我仿佛已经看见，一个MINI我，骑在小朋友身上暴打。。。这个遗传真是要命，好的不传传坏的。以后有多少歉要替她道呢？
没办法，教育吧。一路上和她念叨，打人不好，我们不打人。进得门来，看见姥姥，啪就一巴掌打在姥姥脸上。气得我。。。赶紧板起脸来，“为什么打姥姥？妈妈不是说了，打人不对。。。”一句话还没有说完，小人儿就开始撇嘴，嘴角一下一下往下拽，拽了四五下，号啕大哭起来。信誓旦旦不惯着AMY的姥姥，一把抢过来，你干嘛说我们啊，我们和姥姥玩儿呢，上了幼儿园一天已经狠可怜了，你一进门就说人家。。。有人撑腰，还不哭个痛快？晾在一旁的我，晾凉了算。SIGH。。。有老人在，没法管孩子啊。

A conversation between amy and mom
Amy has always been refusing to call me mom or mama or anything. Ever since she talks, she'd only call her daddy. But last thursday when i picked her up from the day care, somehow alma persuaded her to call me mommy. To me, that sweet "mommy" the most wonderful sound i've ever heard. Of course i'd try to make her call me more often. Here is how it went:
Me: Call me mommy
Amy:...( shake her head)
Me: Call me mommy
Amy: BaBa
Me: Come on, i know you can, call me mommy
Amy: (in shouting) BAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAA
Me:Please please call me mommy
Amy: Stop it.
Me: !@#$%^&*()
Me: Call me mommy
Amy:...( shake her head)
Me: Call me mommy
Amy: BaBa
Me: Come on, i know you can, call me mommy
Amy: (in shouting) BAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAA
Me:Please please call me mommy
Amy: Stop it.
Me: !@#$%^&*()

Diarrhea
Today is amy's 3rd day of a bad diarrhea. I gave her some leftover tofu monday night. I guess i didn't microwave it long enough. I am such a bad mom. Leftover for amy's dinner... even bad leftover... sigh.
Yesterday we kept her home and only gave her BRAT. (my parents have some serious doubt on the use of banana to treat diarreha. but they are kind enough not to interfere.) It got a little better in the afternoon. Her bowel movement was not that watery. This morning amy insisted on going to day care herself. so we took her there. She was soooooo happy. But around noon when i called the day care, they told me she had another diarrhea.
Hope she'll get better.

First Accident
Amy had her first accident this Wednesday night.
It all started with her canine. Just like the ped predicted, she has a canine coming out, which makes her constantly fuzzy. She'd try to bite her little friends whoever's trying to hug her and stuff... Of course dinner time wouldn't be her favorite time. That night she's paticularly acting out, throwing food away and hitting on me. We got really mad at each other. I insisted she should finish her dinner, while she just wouldn't. My parents and her daddy finally talked me out of it. However, she's not that easy to cheer up. The minute i took her out of high chair, she started throwing an tantrum.
It all happened really fast, the first minute she's arching her back, the next she's trying to reach a bowl of hot soup on her tiptoe. Before any of us noticed, she poured a bowl of hot soup on her neck and chest.
I still don't want to think about what exactly happened and how i exactly felt. Any way we took her to the emergency room. Thank god it's not very serious. She had a little bit blister on her neck and that's about the worst part. After the doctor applied a special kind of cream on her, she stopped crying and started playing with us.
Yesterday we kept her home to keep an eye on her. She's not really happy about the decision, though. Since 8am she sitted in front of the door and waited for me to put on her shoes. When we changed her bandage at night, she cried a little bit. And her wound seems healed up.
I WOULD NEVER EVER LET HER CLOSE TO ANY HOT OBJECT EVER EVER EVER AGAIN!

15 Month Check up (12/09/2004)
Weight: 24lb 14.5oz 70%
Height: 32 1/4 inch 75%
She was pretty fuzzy during the whole visit, crying non-stop. The ped said she has a canine coming out, maybe that's the reason.

Ticklish
Amy's really ticklish, especially under her chin. The minute you put your finger there, she'd try to avoid this by tilting her head down a little and at the same time burst into a huge laugh, with her eyes squinted a little and her nose wrinkled. I just love that impression and keep playing this with her when i get a chance.
Yesterday she herself realized this is a fun game. That's when i was having dinner and put her in her high chair right next to me. She kept grabbing my hands. At first i didn't really know what she wanted. So i just passed her my spoon. She threw it away and pulled my hand really hard towards her chin. While she's doing that, she kept checking out my reaction and couldn't help laughing herself. She even said "stop it" at the same time. Yet she's pulling my hand towards her......It took me double the usual time to finish my dinner. But it sure worth it.

Biter girl
Alma told me amy almost bited other kids yesterday. She was really surprised by her aggressive behavior. According to amy's dad, it's in my gene :( . So he's not totally shocked. Well... I AM!
Normally when other kids take amy's toys, she'd just grab it back. She's the biggest one, size-wise, after all. But yesterday, she tried to bite the "offender", and screamed bloody murder for a long time. I used to think amy as a defensive kid, who can protect herself just fine. Now she's crossed line into an aggressive kid. SIGH... i totally blame it on my sister. It's her bad influnce. :P. My parents are coming next week. Can't imagine what kinda disaster that'll be...

First sentence
Elizabeth, STOP IT!
well... it's more like "lid, 'doby!". Last Friday, when liz tried to clean her nose, that's what amy said. i guess a push-over like me really can raise a high-maintenance girl.
Today, she even got jealous when i kissed Davin. When i dropped her off, she wouldn't give me a kiss, kept saying nono. While Davin walked directly towards me and asked for a kiss. So i kissed her. Amy started to whine immediately. She even got upset when Davin said byebye to me. I didn't even look at Davin. But still, amy took it as if Davin's closer to me. The sight of Polly, "breakfast teacher", finally cheered her up.

Back to normal
My sister left the day before yesterday. Amy tried to find her suitcase yesterday morning. Not really disappointed when she found everything's gone, though. I guess she knew her auntie's presence is just temporary all along. I really believe babies are smarter than we thought they are now.
She picked up a lot of new words when my sister was here, bread in chinese, hat in chinese, auntie in chinese etc. My sister also was patient enough to play "put on the lid" with her. If amy's not too anxious and i help hold the bottle, she now can put the lid on herself.
She sure understands us a whole lot better, too. The other day before we left the apartment, I tried to put a hat on her. She hates hat ever since she can move stuff by her teeny tiny hands. Every day putting on hat is a battle between us. Without too much expectation, i told her, it's really cold out, if you don't put on the hat, we don't leave the apartment. Surprisingly, she looked at me for a couple of seconds and then just gave up the fight. However, the minute we got into the car, she started to pull her hat really hard. I thought reasoning worked earlier, why not try again. So i said, it's still cold, amy, let's wait till the car warms up, ok? Again, surprisingly, she lowered her hands and started play with herself. Later on, when the car warmed up, she took her hat off when i told her so. It was like having a conversation/instructional talk with an adult. I guess we'll have to watch what we say in front of her now. :D
