lilyelayne at least a nap is happening? how are you feeling?
went to hallmark to get a card for my niece's 2nd birthday, saw all the christmas stuff, and it made me so happy!
aggiebug by the time i got downstairs after putting the kids to bed last night, the astros game was almost over! can't believe how short it was. hopefully tonight is better.
A is so funny lately. A few gems:
"Caroline, you're HILAAAAARIOUS! Do you know what hilarious means? It means, like, when someone is REALLY funny, like HAHA!"
Last night, she was helping me make dinner (ok she was actually cutting up a banana with her kid knife). I was watching and she said, "Okay, so, let's do the following: hold it here, cut it here...mommy can I eat this?"
She was crying in her crib, so I went up to check on her. It was clear very quickly that she was just attention seeking. I asked what was wrong, and she said, "Umm...well...you're just...ummm...you're a little frustrated." hahahahaha.
And is constantly starting a conversation with, "Okay, so, here's the deal with ____. Let me tell you."
Oh I forgot my favorite one. C is really into chewing on her hands lately. A is always telling her to get her hands out of her mouth so she doesn't get sick. This happened the other day, so A was like, "Here, you should take your tete [pacificer] instead of your hands, okay?" C immediately took the paci out and hands went back in her mouth. A started pacing around in a circle and said, "Caroline, now I am just a little bit annoyed with you. I told you not to do it, and you did it TWICE! So now I am a little annoyed." This kid, man.
agm04 it was so fast I loved it! Clearly hoping for a better turn out tonight, but we did face Kershaw so I can't complain too much.
And I agree this age is slaying me, and making me crazy but also slaying me. The one liners, the retorts, the sass is just so funny.
I am packing, except I am actually watching Gilmore girls . C is not sleeping in the pnp I have purchased a pnp mattress to meet me in Houston. Praying that helps.
agm04 what a little personality. Is she sounding like you or someone she spends a lot of time with? I hear myself coming out of my daughters' mouths sometimes and I'm like...woah... aggiebug go Astros! PS: I hate Kershaw.
I was a cooking fool today. I have chili in the slow cooker for dinner (1st time I'm doing this, not sure how it'll turn out), made low carb cheddar biscuits, and low carb brownies. I tested them and brownies didn't turn out great unfortunately. Few loads of laundry done also.
Norah said that a girl in her class was singing too loud, right in her ear during their hayride today. She said they don't get along with each other lol 😂 just wait, kid. There's gonna be a lot of people that annoy you in life.
dreemkin his is someone I hate playing against but I respect too. Kind of like Pujols. I hated him as an Astros fan, but really I respect the guy his game and him as a person. . We don't have to play against Kershaw much though so my feelings are too strong
Aw moment: today I am proud of N's musicality. This morning she said that the song from Storks, Fire and the Flood by Vance Joy, sounded similar to the song Angela by the Lumineers. They are very close in style and I am impressed that she noticed that. Proof that kids really pick up on things!
dreemkin some of it sounds like me, some definitely sounds like the au pair (let's do the following, i prefer ___, etc. - she speaks very proper english), some like DH. she is just a sponge! i guess they all are at this age. i'm so impressed about A understanding music that well!
lilyelayne i hope you feel better soon. 1st tri really is rough, especially when you're already chasing a toddler.
aggiebug good luck with the mattress. what part of houston will you be in? let me know if you need any baby things while you're here.
