9-13

oh my little man you are sick!  you woke up from your nap yesterday and had a 101 fever.  when you woke up this morning you still had the fever, so we went to the dr and he said it is viral.  i hate seeing you sick!

(the mark on your forehead is from when you were running from me down the driveway and you fell face first!  oops!)

another thing on 9-12

me: gianna can you sing like the girl on fresh beat band  (a tv show)
gianna: nope but i can bounce, hiccup and poop

then you showed me each one....thank goodness no poop came out!


gianna, you also peed on the bathroom floor today and when i asked you what happened you said "my pee pee comes out too fast"


oh my little one!  ;)  you gave me some great snuggles today!

oh my children,

gianna i am going to start with you.  i love your spunk and sassy nature.  you are your own person who will do what you want when you want.  for example this week you pooped on the floor of your bedroom and then smeared it with a fork all over the play cake plate in your bedroom.  when i asked you why you did this you said "i wanted cake with my tea party!"  that is a lot of creativity but i would have rather you come and asked for play dough or used the fake cake that came with the plate!  today you were watching me sew some items that are for your birthday party and i was thinking what a great job you were doing sitting there, well when i finished sewing i asked you what you were playing with and much to my surprise it was a handful of your poop!  argh my sweet gianna!  you have also started throwing some of the worse fits i have seen.  the scream could wake the dead and you are starting to kick, hit, bite, and pull whatever you can get your hands on!  i don't know what to do!  it seems you do these fits when you get really tired but you won't take a nap so sleep does not come easy.  i want you to always remember i love you so much and i hate when you are mad at me, but i am your mom not your friend so there will be times you will not like me much.  i am okay with not being liked all the time, i am here to teach you not to run in the streets or kick your brother, or whatever the fit is about.  it does hurt me when you say "i hate you" but i understand where it is all coming from.  we are a lot a like not just look wise but in personality.  i always try and put myself in your shoes, please remember that! 

well this week you started your fall field hockey league!

you are just the cutest little hockey player ever!  you always want to be the first one to do each drill and you love to run and jump!  you say your favorite warm up is playing duck duck goose!  i could not be more proud of you!  you listen to your coaches and always try really hard!  with this league you have to be a big girl because the parents don't go on the field with you!  you are so big time! 

 this is after the practice is over, once you saw me you came running over to me and gave me the biggest hug ever!  i cherish these wonderful sweet moments!  you were telling me about how you scored a goal!

we went to the eureka days parade!  yay!  you loved getting all the candy and eating as many pieces as possible.  i say go for it!  enjoy!the you got to ride some rides!  this first ride picture is just as the ride started, you liked it!  the second ride picture is after it had been going a bit, the cars started going up and down.  you did not like it!  when it was over you clung onto me and said "that scared me a little bit, i don't like to go high!" you tried so hard to win a fish.  your dad and i were hoping it would not happen but we would have welcomed it into our home.  you did not win one and i will admit i was okay with that!  you were too once we walked away from the booth!

this week you have been pulling fast ones on your dad and i, the first time when i woke up in the middle of the night i found you sleeping next to my bed on the floor!  you said that you went into your bedroom when we asked you to and then snuck back in and laid down on the floor!  that does not look very comfy!  our sweet puppy rose liked it! the second time you came out and slept in the hallway! this time you brought a blanket and your favorite dog!  yes you are sleeping in a care bear costume!  hey it was the only thing you would put on! 

now on to my sweet little boy!  you have been really walking for about 3 weeks now!  you still walk with your hands up and a little straight legged but you are getting better and better!  i can't believe how much balance you have!  if you get in trouble it always makes you start to cry, now you try not to but the pain of getting in trouble is still there.  it is so funny and so sweet.  you give the biggest hugs and the best open mouth on the lips with tongue kisses!  haha they are so messy and so gross but i know they won't last forever so i am cherishing each and every one!  i love your sweet happy nature, please always stay my sweet boy!

this week we went to a parade!  well first you went to a field hockey game with your dad and then you met up with your sister and me at the parade.  when the parade was over you got to ride the bumper cars with your dad!  he said you would laugh and smile until you got bumped then you would cry!  i was a nervous wreck!

 this is you walking off of the ride!  such a big boy!  no your pants are not too short for you, it got hot today so i rolled them up to try and cool you off!

you love going to your sister's field hockey practice!

i love you both!  i love you forever i like you for always as long as I'm living my babies your be

good night my sweet angels!

p.s. glenn this week you got a major hair cut!  this was not your first hair cut (okay it was your second), but this was the first one where they took off more than just a little bit!  you look like such a boy i must admit i miss your longer hair but i love your short hair too!

a start

first my little ones i want to say i am sorry that up until this point i have not been good about keeping track of life and the joy you bring to it.  i have not been good about writting down the little celebrations that we have and the journeys we have been on together.  this is my promis that i will start to do a better job of telling you about what is going on in our lives and in my heart.  i love you both so much..."i love you more than the sun and the moon and i love you more today than i did yesterday.
