IMMS Monday

[TJ]

Okay, ladies, new Monday check in!  It Made Me Smile Monday!

Let us know what made you smile today (or over the weekend.)  Let's get this week started off on a positive note!

[TJ]

IMMS that we accepted an offer on our house, and made an offer (which was accepted) on a house in our new town. My family will be back together soon!

(Sorry for anyone who saw this on the CD board too. I promise I will try to post different IMMS's in the future, but this one is too good not to post twice!)

[chiwifey]

TJ! That's wonderful!!! So happy your family will be reunited soon. You are the woman for handling all you have on your own!

C has learned to sing Jesus Loves Me and started singing it on his own in the car yesterday. It is so precious and absolutely melts me!

[TJ]

Oh chiwifey, I totally forgot about that song! E would LOVE that! Thanks for the reminder. I bet that is just precious as can be.

The nap i just woke up from makes me smile.

DS2 learned how to unzip his jacket and take it off. He also takes his shoes off and can almost get them on himself. He won't let me help him, and I love watching him try to be independent. The bad thing about taking things off is that I found him in the toy room yesterday with his pants and diaper off. Luckily, there was no mess, so I could just laugh.

My BFF and her daughter whose 10 months older than DS were over yesterday and they were playing blocks with my DH. DS kept coming around the corner to make sure that I was monitoring their progress. He was so proud of their work!

DS is walking! It makes me so happy and sad. Mostly happy because he weighs 25 pounds and he is HEAVY to carry around!

R has been doing the twinkle motions for "Twinkle, Twinkle" lately. Cutest thing ever! However, it is also the same motion that he has interpreted to mean "more" in sign language or just hungry in general. And, how he waves hello and goodbye. Super cute, but it's getting to be a little confusing. Is he hungry, waving or singing?!

IMMS that DH is out in the cold and snow playing with A right now. She loves being outside and it totally melts my heart the way she smiles and laughs when he pulls her around on the sled ❤️

TJ that's great news! Congratulations!

Congrats TJ, very exciting. We are working on potty training. J has gone several times, but last night before bath she asked to go and went. After she was so excited she was running around naked and kept saying I went pee pee in the potty (she was literally stepping into the tub right before hence the naked). I love her pride face and elation.

IMMS that DS played on his own for close to half an hour this morning. It was so nice to just sit there watching him and not do anything.

richzep independent play is a wonderful thing to celebrate.

[pammg]

DS teacher today was gushing about how much he is talking and repeating things back to them. After him hating school at the beginning of the year hearing good news from there makes me want to do a happy dance.

[smillemom]

DD poopied on the potty today and was so proud she screamed "hooray!!" DS's dimples also make me smile.

[Robeano]

TJ yay!!! So glad you'll all be back together!!

Mine is that my sister texted me telling me how much of an angel Hannah is cuz she was listening so well, and when taken out of the van went straight to the house, napped so easily. It just makes me happy to have such a sweet girl

[jenny935]

IMMS that DS made a tower out of Mega Blocks (big brandex Legos) using every piece that we own before he knocked it down. It took him a long time, concentration, and (woohoo) silence as he concentrated so hard to make that thing huge! Then he got extreme enjoyment out of the destruction phase too, but how can I complain since he built it himself.

[mnj05]

H copied my every move during supper tonight. It was so cute I was crying from laughing so hard!

[luvboston]

Congrats tj!

LO is wearing my dads t shirt and walking around the house screaming for him. It's adorable!

[bellalou]

2 things!!
P trying to sing ABC's and then his first encounter playing in the snow and thinking it was bubbles. Lol

[imoverit]

Love this!!! Yay TJ!
It made me smile when my kiddos were laughing hysterically at the kitchen table while I played peekaboo from the kitchen. Also smiled when my 3 year old said I was fat. Lol

[cinc1em]

My kids getting their first haircuts today definitely made me smile

Congrats on the impending move TJ!!

[lynnyloo]

DD was so happy last night and went straight to the bathroom when I told her it was bath time. She was so excited to get into the tub (even though we bathe her every night).

[TJ]

Oh! It's Tuesday now. But I legit got a pat on the back (actual, physical pat) for keeping up BFing and pumping so long at work. It's no big deal to me, and to me is easier than trying to figure out formulas and stuff that work for P with her food issues. But it was nice to be recognized.

Congrats! Keeping up bf and pumping after going back to work is hard. Way to go!

Despite being sick all weekend my baby girl still smiled at me every morning when I went in to get her. Melts my heart
