Not Me Monday

During my blog "viewing" I found this and could really related. So….

Not Me Monday

I did NOT accidently let my daughter eat a piece of dog food before I could get her away from the bowl. (Nursing and chasing a 13 month old is rough.)

I did NOT see an older man I know walking down the stairs and think, “Wow, he’s not getting around too well,” only to realize 30 seconds later that I was going down the stairs the same way.

I did NOT walk into the kitchen, after putting K to bed the other night, to see the giant mess I really needed to clean up, start crying, and walk out.

I did NOT file a fake “Appearance” for a student to appeal a “judgement” in a frivolous lawsuit in Classroom Court. J

I did NOT run to Target in old, navy blue sweat pants and a black sweat shirt because we were out of milk and I was too tired to change out of my pajamas. And while at Target I did NOT wipe Kennedy’s nose with my sleeve because I didn’t have a Kleenex and I would NOT rather have it on my sleeve than have her eat her snot. AND while at Target, in mis-matched, snotty sleaved jammas I definitely did NOT see a guy I used to work with and his son! (It was Seth, Beth!)

Lame

As I have been exploring more and more blogs out there on the WWW, I have seen so many cool people and awesome writing!! It makes me feel kinda lame! :-)

Disney Brain

So, yes, I let Kennedy watch TV. Unfortunately, I love TV so when I'm home it's usually on, even if it's just for background noise. As she gets older, and actually realizes that she is watching TV, I will limit her time- no worries. At 5pm each night, she has to watch the Gilmore Girls with me :-) however, in the mornings, I usually turn on Clubhouse Disney because I think its fairly educational and she loves all of the music. Well, I feel that I am officially a geeky mom. Today I was talking to a group of kids about Brainstorming and all of the sudden I felt the urge to sing "Brainstormin'" by the Imagination Movers. Then It was stuck in my head all day. It was very sad. I used to get cool, hip hop and pop songs stuck in my head. Now it's silly kids songs and that stupid Toyota "Saved by Zero" commercial. I couldn't find the brainstorming song but if you go to the website, there is a delightful song about what's in your fridge & shakeable you :-)

On Monday D was 2 months old! I can't believe its gone by so fast. He is growing so much every day. He started smiling yesterday- the real smile. You know, the one where people DON'T say, "Oh, he's just gasy."?

Kennedy is really walking now! It is very shakey, but she's actually covering a decent distance, not just 4 steps. It's hilarious to watch her. Sometimes, I think one leg gets stuck because she just starts pivoting in a circle!

Please ignore the mess. It was a rough day.

OMG! Why are you taking a pic of me on the carseat base?!?!?

Don't tell Devin I put him in K's bounce seat. His was downstairs and I was just too lazy to go get it.

"Dancing"

Check ups

The kids had their 1 yr and 2 month check up this week. Kennedy had gained a few oz so that was good. Other than thay, they were fine. Deag is 9 lbs 9oz and 22.25 in long. Kenna is 17lbs 8 oz and 30 in long. They both had to get shots which was awful for all of us :-)

She likes to take care of her baby dolls...which includes shaking them and licking them- She did not learn that from me. :-)

Sportin' her Butler Gear. Go dawgs!

He looks like K in this pick.

How Cute!

All bundled up!

Randomness

How come I can't make a living seeing this cuteness every morning???

Look at this little man! I can't believe he is seven weeks old today. It's going by too fast!

Yes, I'm a dork. In honor of election day, we all had shirts that celebrated voting. And we wore them. Mine said Laugh. Dance. Vote. I tried to get a picture of all of us but I haven't figure out how to airbrush 20 lbs off me, so it won't be posted. :-)(Plus, trying to use the self-time to get a picture of me, a 1 yr old and a 7 week old was just not a good idea.)

Kennedy doesn't always love the sippy cup, but she does like to use a straw. I got her this cup hoping it would help her not use a bottle. She looks like such a little girl now, and not my little baby!! :-( When she throws this cup down on the floor it gets milk everywhere, and I like when she cuddles with me during her nightly bottle, so we aren't ready to lose it all together. :-)

Not that you need to know this, but this is her poop face. I'm going to save it until her first date and bust it out when the boy comes to the house. :-)

Trick or Treat!

I know- I don't post forever and then I do three in two days! I was up tonight and I figured I'd better put these up now or I would not find time to do it. Last Halloween K was 4 days old, so she didn't really care. This halloween, she is 1 yr and 4 days old...and she still doesn't really care :-) I basically just tortured my children for the amusement of myself and others for a few hours. Oh well. :-) Actually, I kept it pretty short because she was feeling pretty bad today and it was rough at our house. I did get some cute pics and thought I would share them before I try to sleep. Hope you all had a great night!

Skinny Minnie

I had to take K to the doctor on Wednesday because she was pretty sick (I got puke on twice. It was gross.) She had some virus that is making her congested and her throat all nasty, which led to the vomit. Anyway, our awesome pediatrician wasn't so concerned about the virus, it should pass quickly- she was the most concerned about her weight. She has fallen off the growth chart!!! She weighs just over 17 lbs. (Which would explain why her pants fall off while she is playing.) She's in the 90th percentile in height and doesn't even make a percentile for weight! So, the solution? I have to put a tbsp of butter in all of her meals! I also have to put carnation instant breakfast in her milk once a day and feed her sugary cerals and high calorie snacks. Basically, everything that I'm not eating, I need to feed to her. Doesn't that sound crazy!? I think I'm going to give her heart disease and a million cavities! :-) However, I do know she is too skinny (I do feed her, btw.) so I will do whatever I need to. I wish I had this problem...
