When you become a mom, remember to hold onto your childless girl friends, because more than ever, they will be worth their weight in gold. That's right, most of us new moms ditch those single gals, whose priorities are now so different...

Buttercup, the stuffed bear....goes EVERYWHERE with my son. He inists upon it...I mean INSISTS LOUDLY! 
Ok....so, Buttercup comes along on our trips to the grocery store, the school, WalMart, various activities such as...

My day was so full of toddler drama today. My son is getting in his two-year old molars, so literally spilled milk will send him into a temper tantrum. And also today was cold and rainy so I couldnt even take him outside which is...

The gummy crystals of a failed diaper..... jelly-like crystals full of pee. EWWWW!!

They are EXTREMELY hard to clean up!
Just sticky and yucky and seemingly everywhere. I can't get them off his skin without bathing him...

He discovered it was fun to flush the potty today.
No, not after going himself...he is in the process of potty training still.
But, the joys of discovering what kind of objects will go down and which won't!!!
I was making...

We like to put on fun, bluesy songs and get groovin' to them....he loves the music and gets so into it...the boy's got rhythm!lol

I cant figure out how one so small can make a mess of the entire house so fast.  I have tile so a mop is my friend....You poor moms with carpet... will your house ever be dry or clean again. 
We play ball from sun...

My two year old daughter is a screamer. She screams whens shes happy, when she sad and every feeling in between. Its not constant but she is so loud, I'm sure the neighbors hear her. She's not really social with other kids yet, we don't...

Don't we just love to judge other parents...?

"If that was my kid, I’d never let him throw food like that." "I would make her say please." "Why are parents so terrified of their own spawn?"

Oh yes, I have said and thought all of...

I just wonder when they quit hitting their noggins on things and getting bruises on their foreheads.  We went for a parental visit to his dads tonight and he did it in front of everyone... this time...

I just picked the sippy cup for this group logo because it is exactly like the one I just found in my son's toybox...half full of completely spoiled milk....all curdly and thick and oh, so yummy!
We went away for a week and...

She will be three years old March 21,2010. She is the light of my life and keeps me going. Her loving nature,intelligence and spirit amaze me every day.

He is excited for Halloween, or thinks he is. His brothers are into it, so he figures it must be interesting.
Everyday on the way to and from the school, we pass a house with lots of spooky decorations. He is scared but can't...

Today, we are disassembling the crib, and he is finally moving into a big boy bed.
 It is sooooo bittersweet!!!
I love watching him grow up, his excitement of becoming a big boy, and getting his own bed....
But I miss his...

So....he scratched his foot last week. I put the cream on it and a normal sized bandaid, kissed it better, and all was good.
The bandaid came off 10 minutes later (or was pulled off...more likely) and he came running to me for another...

My oldest two went through this also, at about the same age. My youngest is now going through the phase...
What was once a much anticipated activity, is now viewed with absolute apprehension and outright terror.
THE DREADED BATH...

I had to take him into Emergency last night. I was worried he may have had a bowel obstruction because he was in so much pain.
It was late. The ER was busy. We waited, and waited, and waited. He was tired and irritable. *sigh...
