Days in the Life of Mijken

Life with a two year old is never dull!


This is Mijken when I had put some water in the sink to clean the kitchen. I went out of the room and returned to see that she had undressed and climbed into the sink all by herself. As she sat in the sink she was eating the grapes I had just washed that were in a bowl next to her.

Mijken is in love with puppies. She was in heaven when she got to meet Buddy up at Nana's house.



These two pictures show you Mijken's favorite outfits. Yes, I understand that it is the middle of winter, and yet she continues to find and put on her favorite outfits. Notice how the green shirt is on inside out and backwards. I have hid that pink and green outfit many times, just not well enough I guess.

This is what happens when I try to get her to take a nap. I have put a child lock on the inside of her door so she could not get out of her room. However, that does not stop her from crawling out of her crib, filling her crib full of books, climbing back in bed, and reading until she finally falls asleep.


This is Mijken dressed up in her rap outfit. The kids get her to say things like "word" and "yo".

Our "Mijken Makeup Monster"

This is her beautiful work of makeup, you should have seen the bathroom.

Life is full!

This makes us miss you all so much. She is one of a kind and "I wouldn't trade her for a million." Something your Grandpa would have said. I hope that she likes our new dog as much as she did Buddy! Can't wait for you to sell that house and get up here.

Amber, I love it! Mijken is the best. You really do have your hands full with her. We had so much fun with you all at Targhee. I can't wait for you to come back. It will be great to have you closer. Love you.

She is a riot. I can still see her and Janey running back and forth in the condo. You better keep your eye on her.

What a sweetheart! We just loved seeing Mijken play with Cora. They will be running around together in no time!
