Post One!
There are so many little things that make me feel all warm and squishy about my kids right now. I just look at them in awe and feel my heart lurch and skip a beat.
I love that I can have a real conversation with Carson.
After months of blobdom, I’m amazed at Ella’s blooming independence and curiosity.
Since I’ve always been the second place parent when it comes to Carson, I’m relishing the fact that Ella thinks I’m the cat’s meow. Raur!
It’s really heartwarming that Carson has such a sensitive side.
I love that Ella still takes two naps! Score some bonus blogging time for me!
Post Two!
There are so many little things that bug the ever-loving CRAP out of me about my kids right now. I just look at them in awe and wonder why the hell I don’t just break down and call a babysitter.
Sure you can have a conversation with Carson, but can you say SASSY much? “NO! I want peanut butter and jelly!!!!” and in the very next breath…”NOOOOOOO! I don’t want peanut butter and jelly!!!!! I have to use my innermost restraint not to strangle him.
After months of being able to just put Daredevil Ella down and not having to watch her every move, I now have to watch her like a hawk so she doesn’t eat the fireplace tools or hang from the ceiling fans.
Sure it’s nice being the preferred parent sometimes. But geez louise, EL-LA! I just want to pee ALONE! You won’t suffer any long term damage by not being held WHILE I pee.
Carson? Seriously? The drama? It’s time to stop it. You’re a two and a half year old BOY not a thirteen year old GIRL.
I am so incredibly sick of being banished to the house except for the two hours between 11-1. It’s time to cut back to one nap a day, kiddo.
HALP!
Useless Freebie!
In reference to my post about the top 100 songs of the 90′s, did anyone notice that Backstreet Boys “I Want it That Way” was number 3??!!! I have admitted in the past to liking the Backstreet Boys, but THAT song as the number 3 song of the DECADE?? Tate and I had an in-depth discussion about this travesty and neither one of us can fathom how anyone would think it belongs anywhere in the top 20, even. To prove my husband’s manliness, I should tell you that Tate feels the song belongs nowhere below the top 2 zillion.
Discuss amongst yourselves.
Oh the good things usually outweigh the bad with kids. But why, oh why, must the two come together? I don’t get it.
