Morning Wake Up Call

Evy started to fuss at 5:30 this morning. Then she started to talk. It went like this. "Mama?.....Mama?......Milk?.......Babies?.......Mama?.......Mama?.......Dada?....Dada?......Milk?"

Translation: Mom, get up here and give me some milk. Dad, mom is not responding, get me some milk. Now!

Still Cleaning...

Germs Germs Go Away!

In the winter I loathe having a child in daycare. The germs get passed around and at any point in time at least one member of our household is sick. Evy has been sick since Friday and is on steroids for a horrible cough. I stayed home with her Monday and Tuesday and now Grandma is taking a shift. Evy was a disaster when I left this morning so I hope Grandma has a good day (fingers crossed)! I've had a sore throat for 4 weeks and Scott is now coming down with something. If we look like the walking dead just give us a break. We'll get back in the grove come April (sigh...3. more. months.)

Happy New Year!

Yes, I know it's January 18. A group of us decided to celebrate New Year's mid-January when babysitters are more plentiful and prices are not jacked up. Happy New Year to you all!

In Scott's Defense

*See Previous Post First*

In Scott's defense, he claims he was referencing this type of dress when he called mama bear's scarf a "neck bow." However, I don't think a mama bear, in a children's book, would ever be dressed like this. Even if the book was written by Michael Kors.

For Grandma J--Michael Kors is a famous fashion designer who appears on my favorite show, Project Runway. Maybe this is where Scott saw the "neck bow" he is referencing.

Neck Bow?

Scott was reading a book to Evy. In the book was a picture of a mom. Scott said, "Look Evy, she's wearing a neck bow." I said, "You mean scarf?" I'm still laughing. What the hell is a neck bow?

The Gang's All Here

Evy loves (!) her dolls and stuffed animals. Earlier this week she watched a Baby Einstein DVD with Dolly, Piggy, Doggie, Brown Bear and Pink Bear. Notice a creative naming trend here? I'm surprised to notice that Elmo is missing from the picture. He is one of her favorites.

Brown Bear had to have back surgery recently to repair a torn seam. Add surgeon to my resume.
