quirks

i should be thankful.  we have moved past needing the kitty ice pack, blanket, blanket on the floor, tangled doll, and strawberry shortcake for bed time.  now we only need blanket, blanket on the floor and tangled doll.  small wins.

tonight i couldn't help laughing.  i went to tuck her in for the probably fourth time and she wanted 'uppie cuddles'.  which i obliged.  who doesn't want cuddles from their kids?!  so i pick her up and she says 'no like pony'.  i have my hair pulled back in a ponytail.  so i take the ponytail out.  "that better" chuckle, snort, cuddle.... chuckle, try not to laugh... (child whimpers, chuckles)... chuckle...  laugh uncontrollable and put child back in bed.

purple

For about the past month or 2, nut nut asks for 'purple' Dora diaper.  Or for 'purple' jammies... which happen to be blue or pink, not actually purple.  And the 'purple' Dora diaper is pink or yellow...

so what does 'purple' mean?  we think it means 'perfect'.  Her sister says 'that's perfect' so we know it has to be a preferred item.  So I think I will start calling things I like 'purple'.

2 working adults + 2 children = no spare time

i don't post about the crazy things this kid does or says although there are many.  i don't post as many pictures because they live on my phone. 

here is one pic of the nut asking for ipah mommy...  (iPod)

enjoy

Yesterday I came home and was in a good mood because I had accomplished stuff at work.  I also got some stuff done that I hadn't been able to do.  So when I went to put jammies on Nat, we had an impromptu wrestle and giggle session.  I was sitting on the floor and she plays a game where she pushes me over and I pull her on top of me and tickle her.  We then wrestle back and forth which leaves her in a fit of laughter. 

At some point, she says 'dop' while laughing hysterically and I let her roll onto the floor.  She was laying on my arm and we were both looking up at the ceiling.  She sighed after she got the giggles under control and then said 'ready, go' and launched at me for another tickle/giggle session.  This happened about 3 or 4 times before I said we had to stop for night night time.  I enjoyed just playing with her.  My heart truly was full.   I took a second and said thank you for blessing me with this moment.
