Snippets

  • Nate has a bad case of baby acne. Mia said, "he's got those dots all over his face, just like you Mom." Wow, kids have a way of making you feel good about yourself.
  • Sam found the binky stash, and he's back on the binky wagon. (Or has he fallen off the no-binky wagon?) Either way, he's also had a fever this week, and this sucker of a mom just couldn't put her foot down and take it away for the 3rd time. Super Nanny would not be impressed.
  • More sliver drama. This time the victim is Mia and not only does she not accept her own "these things just happen in life" consolation, she is so upset about it, she declares, " I don't want to be a person anymore. I wish I was a frog!" This is followed a few minutes later by, "I don't even want to be alive anymore!" Yikes. In about 10 years, we're going to be in big trouble.
  • My brother John is moving out of student housing at the University of Rochester this week, and sold some of his stuff to some friends of ours, the Walkers, who are moving into student housing at the University of Rochester. In fact, they are one of 2 families we know moving into that same student housing complex. Small world. I love that kind of stuff!
  • Miracles do happen! All 3 kids napping at the same time:

I know what you mean. My kids all had horrible poppers all over their faces for a few weeks. Just keep a blanket over his head in public and tell people that he's "sleeping."

We have all had bad mother moments, so don't be hard on yourself. At least you did not cause you child to have a trip to the emergency room and came out three hours later and nine stitches later. Hang in there, I promise it gets easier as they get older. Love you all, Mary
