The moments mommies live for...

AR: "Mommy?"

Me: "Yes pumpkin?"

AR: "You're my best friend!"

Me: Heart melting, tearing up! :)

Hope all my mommy friends are having a wonderful week!

Terrible two's...

Well, we had our first real life tantrum today. We had the pleasure of going swimming today at someone's house who is in the mom's group. It went pretty well for about 1 hour, and then I could see that AR was starting to crash. I gave her the 5 minute warning that we were leaving, packed our things, and went to get her. Oh boy...my child hit me in the head while I was putting on her shoes. Needless to say, she was in some serious trouble, having to go into time out in front of the entire group. She cried, yelled, hit the house, hit a plant nearby...it was tough. I finally got her to the car, calmed down and on our way home when she so politely asked could she please have her "gummies" now. Prior to going swimming, I told her if she behaved she could have gummies after we left. No, I did not give in...she did not get the gummies. I am not ready for this by any means!

Otherwise, we are getting back into the swing of things. P is back to work, I am home again. I have an awesome video to post. I will try in the next day or two. The video is not really worth anything, it's the sounds of Joshua laughing...belly laughing...at his big sis. It's so cute. Hope you will return to hear it. It will put you in a great mood! Love to all our family and friends! A.
