Mommy Lesson of the Week

Not really a lesson this week...more of a "What the heck!"

Becuase Dad is at his football games on Thursday nights, Emily and I eat out. This Thursday it was McDonalds. I place Em's order of a cheeseburger Happy Meal with fries and a chocolate milk. My turn, I'll have the #10 value meal with a Coke, please. Sorry ma'am ...we are temporarily out of Coke today.

WHAT THE HECK!!!! OUT OF COKE! Good thing it wasn't a Sunday morning for all those hung over people who need their McDonald's fountain Coke to cure that hangover. I was so disturbed for the rest of the evening, how could McDonald's be out of Coke??

Putting words together...

Emily said her first sentence today...
Every morning we do the same routine. After we get dressed, we come to kitchen and get our cup of milk to take in the car on the way to daycare. Well, this morning, she threw me a curve. I handed her the cup of milk and she said "no, juice, please". I was so thrown back that I said "You don't want your milk?", she replied again, "no, juice, please". So I filled a different cup with some apple juice, handed it to her, and go the best response ever, "Thank you". I was so excited...it was like having a real conversation.

Mommy Lesson of the Week

This weeks subject: Toe Fuzzies
Emily has discovered the fuzz between her toes when she takes her socks off. For those of you who know Emily...she doesn't sit still. She will sit for twenty minutes searching and examining every toe she has.

Doctors, Doctors, Doctors

I had my 18 month check up, and Dr. B says I am perfect. I weigh 20lbs. 6oz. and am 31 inches tall. And I only had to have one shot, the flu shot. So now I don't need to go back until I am 2!

I also saw the plastic surgeon for one of my nose treatments. We were at the hospital a long time. They accidently went out of order, so instead of being first, I was last. Daddy was very impatient which made me impatient. But it all turned out OK in the end. They only did lasers this time. So my nose is a little bruised and swollen, but my hemangioma is not growing. Now the doctors will just keep checking up on me every couple months to see how I am doing. But he doesn't think I will need any reconstructive surgery. YEAH!!!!
