I have to admit...

my baby girl is a little special.

The fact that she painted clear nail polish on her eyelid in an attempt to put on makeup (almost blinding herself) didn't convince me.

Neither did the fact that instead of telling her brother to get off her, she prefers to cry until I come to tell him to get off her.

Neither did a million other things.

But, today, she did the nastiest junk ever. While we were in The Great Indoors, I turned around and noticed something was in her mouth. I asked what it was and made her open it. Are you ready for the answer???

Are you really ready???

It was gum that she got from the cart she and Brayden were riding in.

I almost threw up on the spot. It took every fiber of my being to try to keep my composure while my lunch was slowly rising in my throat.

Is that not the NASTIEST mess ever? Ugh!

You know how BABIES like to put everything in their mouths. Um, she has yet to pass that stage of life for some reason. Then, she had the nerve to get mad with me for taking it out. She said it was good. She almost got cussed out...and I don't cuss.

Girl, one of my daughters did the same thing except the gum was from under a table they were eating at The Waffle House. Absolutely Gross!! She said she called her sister immediately (who's a doctor) to ask what to do, and if she would become eternally ill. Long story short, her daught is fine and just turned 3. Danae will be fine, it's just VERY gross!!! Wow, I wonder what things Sydney will be up to in the years to come??

Oops, that was supposed to say, "one of my friend's daughters", not one of my daughters. Sorry about that!

Too funny. Make sure you remember this story so you can tell her and her boyfriend (assuming she is about 25 when she has her first boyfriend :-)) when they are over to you alls house. He may think twice about kissing her.

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s

Baby Making (Or Not)

So, as I've said before, I'm getting my tubes tied this year. I have had so many people tell me they don't agree with this. I've been told that I should let God decide how many children we have or ask him to close my womb. I should wait and see if I want more children in the future. It's too permanent. What if something happens to my children and I decide I want more later. I honestly didn't expect to run in to so much opposition. First of all, it's my body and my decision. Secondly, I am absolutely sure that I don't want more children. And lastly, it really is my decision. The funny thing is that my friend who has 5 children has received a lot of criticism for the size of her family and was told repeatedly that she should've gotten her tubes tied. Now, there are other circumstances in that particular family that would warrant such remarks. But my point is that people are never satisfied. If we continued to have children, I'm sure someone would s

Christmas in September?

Apparently, living in Manila is going to provide plenty of material for me to write about. Here goes: We have been provided several books to help us adapt to life in the Philippines. Something we read was very beneficial for us yesterday. We went to SM which is a department store, furniture store, grocery store, and several restaurants all in one. Danae had to use the bathroom and guess what? There was no toilet tissue. No, they didn't run out. They don't put tissue in the bathrooms at all. No empty tissue holder or anything. Because I read about that, I had a little tissue stowed in my bag to use. In the grocery store, the most overwhelming shock was the stench. The entire back of the store is basically a butcher shop. Surprisingly, there were no flies or anything. But, the smell was gross. Danae held her nose while we looked around in there. I wasn't bold enough to purchase any meat yet. One day, maybe. Or, we'll just become vegetarians while we're here. In the cl
