The part where my head splits apart from hearing “Mommy, mommy” 652,000 times a day

My daughter….the one that I have longed for all of my life. The one that I went through miscarriage hell for. The one that I love with all of my heart and soul.

She is driving me up the ever loving wall.

Do ALL female children talk this much?

After coming from 3 boys, who I could basically classify as mimes for the first 3 years of their lives, having a live Chatty Cathy Doll is turning my mind into a liquid mass of neuron soup.

She starts off every sentence with “Mommy, mommy, mommy…” and only ends it after a 3 minute dialogue that makes my eyes glaze over.

Please don’t get me wrong. She is a complete love, and several times a day I can be seen nibbling on her little, fat, leg rolls and smothering her face, neck and feet in kisses. I adore her and am so not complaining.

It is just very different than what I am used to with the boys.

Is this a girl thing? Or do you have chatty boys as well?

*adding that I need to get the “Mommy, mommy, mommy” on tape, as she says it with the sweetest voice you have ever heard.
