Mommy Test

This is an email I got this morning. I thought it was true and worth sharing.


Mommy test

I was out walking with my 4 year old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.

"Why?" my daughter asked.
"Because it's been on the ground, you don't know where it's been,it's dirty and probably has germs" I replied.
At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Mommy, how do you know all this stuff? You are so smart."
I was thinking quickly. "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mommy Test. You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Mommy."
We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information.

OH...I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the daddy."

"Exactly!" I replied back with a big smile on my face.
When you're finished laughing, send this to a Mom

My body is not what it used to be

So my DH and I were talking about having another baby. Nothing serious just talking. I was asking him what he thought about me trying to have a VBAC next time around. He said "A what?" I told him that it means I would try and have my next child "regular" ( I am using man terms for his sake) instead of a c-section. He said "why it was so easy to have the c-section." OK it was not easy!!!!! Easy for him maybe for me not so much. Anyway I got to thinking maybe it would be easier. I told him well if I did have a c-section I would still have the vagina of a twenty year old. Without missing a beat he said "wow are you going to have vaginaplasty?" "You know you and your vagina are thirty." Thanks honey your the best.

What is she saying?????

OK so K is trying to tell me something. At first I thought it was "mine" then I thought it was 'Come on". Now I am clueless!!!! I need a baby translator. It sounds like "ma" and she says it when she wants something, when she has dropped something, when she sees something, pretty much all the time. What does it mean???? I know that she is behind in her verbal skills. Apparently a twenty month old should be talking a lot more. She does say a few words that are clear to me, but I don't know if anyone else knows what she is saying. It is very frustrating to me and I know it is to her as well. The pediatrician told me that if she was not saying 50 words by the time she was two, we would need to put her in speech therapy. Well we have four months.

Words she does say:
shoes
outside
mama
Dada
juice
ut oh
hot
cold
papa
paw-paw
Nana
spots
ouch
blocks
up

Bathroom Floor

OK so I am a completely grossed out by germs. My little pumpkin is not. It is completely fine with her to eat off the floor. She is so fast. I know that I cannot keep her in a bubble, but it is completely grossing me out. I just hope that I can keep her from doing what I saw a child doing yesterday..........
I am out shopping and I had to pee. (For those who know me you know I must have REALLY had to pee to g0 into a public bathroom) So I roll K in her stroller into the handicap stall. I am squatting and peeing, and I look down and there are two eyes looking at me. I am startled. It is a little boy and he is now waving. He has crawled all they way from the first stall down to mine (the last) on his belly, hands, knees, whatever. I never said anything, but I was like wow. Now this little boy was not old enough to walk. There are so many reasons why he should not have been on the floor in a public bathroom and while germs is a big one, what about someone snatching him up and taking him? I finished what I was doing and made my way to the sink. When I was at the sink the mother came out of her stall and went to the next one to retrieve her son. Then they both walk out. That's right she did not wash her hands or the baby's that had just been crawling on the floor. I really hoped that I did not see them at the food court. I mean come on is it me or is that just nasty???

Pink Fuzzy Handcuffs

OK random thoughts for Monday.
1.) I have very few friends, but I have great friends.
2.)I get more things done around my house when I do it alone then when DH helps.
3.)My MIL does not know what fuzzy pink handcuffs are for.
4.)I am going to be an aunt in less than six weeks.
5.)I noticed today at breakfast that my daughter really does look just like her daddy.

OK all for now.

I am going to blog...

OK so I have not posted since November. I read a lot of blogs and really enjoy them. So from here on I hope to post everyday. OK a least twice a week.

I really don't know what to blog about. Kinda scared to blog about the family because you never know who could be reading. Then again it will all be true and maybe that is what they need a little truth.
