I’m creating a monster

Every time the Kiddo sees W@l-m@rt as we drive by it on the way home from, or even on the way TO school, she asks if we’re going shopping.  And is disappointed if the answer is no (like on the way to school). Personally, I hate shopping.  But, I take her with me when I [...]

afternoon naptime

The Kiddo had a pretty good nap this afternoon.  She went down at around 1:45p and got up at about 5pm.  Yep, a fairly long nap, but she seems refreshed. At about 3:15 I started nodding off at my desk, so told my husband I was going to go lay down on the floor of [...]

Trying to salvage soiled shoes

This will be a post that discusses poo (as discretely as I can, I hope), so if you are squeamish at the idea of it, avert your eyes and read something else.  If it doesn’t phase you, then read on.  :) Yesterday at daycare, the Kiddo had a #2 accident.  Sometimes she doesn’t tell anyone [...]

Bedtime favorite

One of my very favorite things that the Kiddo likes to do right now before she goes to bed at night, is to climb into my lap and be held “baby” style, while either I sing alone, or she sings with me – “Rock a-bye Baby”.  Currently, she likes to have me/us insert various names [...]

Sometimes I wonder what goes on in her mind

Yes, this will be another potty-training related post. So yesterday, I decided since it wasn’t that hot out when we got home, and with the sun going down I could work mostly in the shade, I decided to hit the front yard and do some weeding.  I had the Kiddo stay outside with me while [...]

Halloween is right around the corner

Like anyone doesn’t realize that already. LOL I still haven’t decided what the Kiddo is going to be this year.  I don’t even think she has any clue either, since she doesn’t quite understand the idea fully just yet. Her first Halloween, she was a vampire witch.  It fit perfectly because she was just getting [...]

Advancing in potty training

I am happy to report that the Kiddo used the potty for #2 last night!  This is only the second time in two months that she has done so.  The first time she went into the bathroom by herself and called me in, this time she walked up to me as I saw on the [...]

Fun with Playdough

Tuesday evening, my husband decided we should go to the toy store and buy the Kiddo some new playdough and some of the play sets that go along with it, since a) she really likes playing with playdough and the accessories when she is at school, and b) it would give the two of them [...]

Chapstick: It’s the new Crack.

“Jus’ a wittle bit.” Anytime the Kiddo sees my purse, or even a glimpse of a tube of Chapstick (or any type of lip balm, for that matter), she HAS to put some on.  And she says that phrase, to let me know she is bent on doing so. She will unzip my purse, and [...]

How does that taste?

Yep.  Eating my words. *sigh* Topical antibiotic cream, 3 times a day, for 10 days, keep her home from school today and tomorrow, blah blah blah. Boy do I feel dumb. And a bit ticked off.  I called the daycare this morning to call the Kiddo out sick for the day.  I called them again [...]
