The tantrums that Josie was having have subsided. A powerful tool for her is to countdown from 5 to 1. This morning Charlie was throwing his food off of his highchair, and I said "Okay, that's it! Charlie, you're done," in a stern voice. Josie looked at me and said, "Mommy, just countdown from 5 to 1; you'll be fine." Do you guys watch Peg + Cat on PBS? That's what she does to calm down. Its a cute show. Yes. That's where she got it from! It's a great show! |

Me: Do you think I'll ever be able to do that again?
B: No Mom, probably not.

Me: (very not pregnant) uhh... well those things take a long time cheeks. And even then it might be a baby brother.
N: so...when I wake up she will be here?!

C was playing in the front seat of my car while we were waiting for MH. He closed all the air vents and said, "Let's give them privacy. You know, in case they have to pee or something".

Last night at dinner:
Me: Cadence, please put your toys away. No toys allowed at the dinner table.
Cadence: I'll just put them in my chair.
Me: That's still AT the table.
Cadence: No, it's ON the chair.

Last night C and I took a walk and met a cat:
C: I really like that cat!
Me: what do you like about him?
C: he doesn't steal my food.
Max is a good thief. It's the one thing I would change about him.

Oh, and then the dr. was talking about having L go for a blood draw and C said, "I can bite her with my very strong teeth and get some blood for you".

Cadence dropped her banana so I gave her a stick of gum so she wouldn't lose her shit.
C: mom, this gum is red
Me: yep
C: BLOOD red
Me: ok
C: I like to eat things that are BLOOD red
Me: um. Ok.
C: strawberries and BLOOD are both red. Red like BLOOD
She seriously keeps emphasizing the word blood. It's creeping me out.

H is really into Moana right now.
She has been saying (what sounds like) the following phrases:
"I am Moana with a dewie"
"DVD with a heart"
What I have realized/now translated into
"I am Moana of Montinui" (not sure how that's actually spelled)
"Tefiti's heart"

His constant nattering goes from one subject to the next without taking a breath sometimes.
This was yesterday in a span of about 32 seconds.
B: mom, at daycare today I made a map for the ladybugs and ants, they're my friends, ya know
Me: ok, that's awesome. Is the map so they can find you always?
B:Mom, today there was a fly in the bathroom, but I had to be calm because I was on the toilet.
Me: that's great you were calm, flies wont hurt you honey
B: Mom, you see these things here, these balls (points to his testicles), they fill up with pee, then I empty them into the toilet with my penis, then they shrink down empty, ok. Ok Mom.
Me: ...

I turned on the lamp so I could get dressed this morning and it woke Matthew up. He sat up and was rubbing his eyes. I told him good morning and he said "I think I just need to get more sleep now" Me to peach, me to.

2:40am B is at my beside
B: Mom...Mama...Mommy (whisper yelling)
Me: what's wrong, you ok?
B: ok good you're here. I'm just going to sleep with you to make sure you never leave me. (Throws his pillow and two puppies over me, climbs in and is snoring in 30 seconds)
Is parenting jail a thing? Cause I think my kid just made it a thing. And FTR I have 'left' him exactly 5 nights on 2 separate occasions.

At school (as told by her teacher): Cadence and her friend, I, put their baby dolls up their shirts and were walking around. Teacher called them over to do a counting activity. C: I, come on, my baby is coming! I: Cadence, I'm counting! C: fine, but my baby is coming now!! I: Miss B I can't count anymore, my baby is coming now too. We have to go! So, I guess I'm a grandma.  |
