I may have to eat my words

Those blisters might NOT be caused by her pull-ups.  One more popped up on her leg, nowhere near where her pull-ups would be, and it was when she’d been in underwear for two straight days.  My MIL had looked up some pictures of a certain skin infection when she had the Kiddo overnight on Saturday, [...]

Miss Sleepyhead

Most days, we have to convince the Kiddo when it is nap time to go lay down and get some rest. Today was different – she was sitting watching Toy Story II, and decided to pause it and proceed to tell me “I tired, I want to nap.” O.o You won’t get any argument from [...]

Being rubbed raw by Huggies Pull-Ups

The last few days, I’ve noticed a little sore on the Kiddo’s tummy.  First one appeared, it looked like it had been picked at, I figured she had just scraped herself on something, or it had been an itchy spot that she scratched until it scabbed up.  Then another appeared, less than an inch from [...]

Praise from her teachers

When I dropped the kiddo off at school today, one of her teachers told me that she was one of their best at pronouncing their own names. Talk about making a mom feel proud! She also recognizes her name when it is written down or spelled out in magnetic letters.  Her daddy was instrumental in [...]

Longing for Grandma’s House

The Kiddo stays overnight at her grandmother’s house now and then.  Before our vacation in August, it was every other week. Then Grandma decided it was time to revamp it to allow the youngest grandchild the opportunity to spend the night at her house, too.  Which is only fair and everyone was ok with.  So [...]

Morning baths for toddlers – not recommended

So last night, we went to dinner at Red Lobster with my husband’s mom & step-dad, to partake in RL’s Shrimp Fest all-you-can eat dealie.  Yummy!  Well, that also meant we got home a little later than we anticipated.  The Kiddo really needed a bath, but 1) it was already bedtime when we got home, [...]

Time Flies

Earlier I was looking through the pictures in my gallery to make the badges for my Entrecard widgets, for a specific picture of some flowers my husband gave me for my birthday right after I found out I was pregnant with the Kiddo.  This of course meant I was scrolling through hundreds of pictures taken [...]

Kiddo-ism

definition: a mis-pronounced word used by the Kiddo so often that the parent starts to use it, too. Sometimes. The first one, and my favorite:  pinnow This is what she says when she means “pillow”.  She has a little pillow lovey that I got for her last Christmas.  It has always been “pinnow”.  Until this [...]

Long weekends can be rough

for the Kiddo when she has to go back to daycare after spending such a long weekend with us.  Moreso when she was sick for part of the weekend. She was NOT happy about me leaving her at school today.  Poor girl. I’m sure she was ok within a few minutes though.  Otherwise we would [...]

We went anyway

…to the barbeque. Her aunt was ok with her coming over.  I just hope the Kiddo wasn’t still contagious in some way. She had fun though.  She really likes to go swimming, even though she doesn’t really swim yet. I had to step away for a moment, the Kiddo wanted to go to bed.  I [...]
