update



I haven't blogged in forever and now I don't remember what I wanted to share. July was really busy for me, and August is only letting up a little bit. J and I went and took hunters ed together, so now I am a smart hunter! Only i'm not a hunter yet. This weekend is our 2nd anniversary, and the weekend after that is J's birthday, and the weekend after that...I don't remember but there's something. I've been naseaus a lot lately, but fortunately I have not actually had to throw up. It's just really annoying to feel like crud all the time. Hopefully it will end after 3 months...

You know how you can fake cry and pout to a kid and they will fell bad and give in to what you want?...Like, "M, can I have a kiss?" "no, momma." and then I will pretend to be sad and cry...well you know what m's response is? "Momma need a nap." hmmm....where have I heard that before?

M is talking really well now...at least I think so. She talks a lot more now, tells stories, etc. If you ask her what color something is she will tell you 'I don't know' but if she names the color of something voluntarily she will get it right at least 80% of the time. She says no a lot now, but usually still do what she is supposed to. The pictures are from the 4th of July.

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?

Veggie Tales

so, because i'm lazy and am terrible at getting up in the mornings M and my morning routine is not the best, but it works for us. I get up when I hear her yell "mooom. daaaad. mooom. blah blah goober gibber." I get her out of bed, and still sleeping I go to the kitchen grab cereal or left over pancakes, or multi-grain bar for breakfast, put M in her highchair or more often just on the floor with a bowl and instantly she says "tales" and I turn on the one of our veggie tales movies and lay on the couch until my brain is working. well...just the other day it was the same routine, but when the movie ended I watched M disappear around the back of the couch and in a few seconds I see her hand reach up and grab the remote of the back of the couch, walks back around, hands me the remote and says "tales" and looks expextantly at the t.v. It was soooo funny and adorable. sometimes lately she comes up to me and says "remote?" and then "I dunn...
