Another Milestone for my Baby!

She got her first hair cut today! She was such a big girl!!




















I was sooo proud. I was also a little teary, my little girl, sitting
in the BIG chair, she looked so tiny, but yet such a BIG girl!

Of course I kept a few of her curls...

She loved being in the chair, with all of us ooohing and aaahing, she
got a big thrill. Grandma came along for the ride, so I think she enjoyed
that too!

Is there any way to slow the clock?

A WAHM's Life Story

Wow, how the time flies!

I have been wanting to find the time to sit and relate
my days, but when you turn around, your eyes are shut!!

My days have become a blur since becoming a
WAHM!

The kids are non-stop, a two year old and an 8 month old
never stop!

I am still going nowhere with the potty training!

Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated!

My daughter just doesn't want to have anything to do with the
potty.

My little boy is just crawling all over the place, pulling up
on everything. Going up our stairs....

Very different from my daughter, she was a very content baby, she
was fine to just sit on the floor and play. She didn't really crawl
at all, but she started walking by 9 1/2 mos.

Another thing, I have to keep up with, my son is infatuated with
cords and plugs. :-(

The computer area is definitely on his agenda every day! My
daughter didn't care about cords either.

I don't know if it is the difference between boys and girls, or
just two different kids, but they couldn't be more different!

Very neat to watch as a mom!

I have to say, lately my daughter has begun to say her ABC's (with
help, of course) but it is the cutest thing to hear a 2 year old say
the ABC's.

She loves for me to read to her, lately that is all she wants, for
us to sit on the floor or on the couch or in the recliner and just read.

She has started saying "mama" and patting the floor, the couch or the
chair where she wants me to sit so we can read. It is very endearing,
it warms my heart.

It is these moments that make me very glad that I can be home to nurture
my kids.

On the other hand, I am also here to witness the terror of a two year old!

More on that in the days to come.....

I promise to be back very soon!! :-)

Me and My Shadow

I think most adults take their shadows for granted.

But a two year old views it as a playmate.

A few weeks ago my daughter and I were walking down
our street and she looked down and started babbling.
Not really understanding what she was trying to tell
me, I finally realized after some investigating, that
she was fascinated by and playing with her shadow. She
was trying to get away from it and one point. It really
had me laughing inside at how much fun you can have just
by playing with your shadow.

What is even cuter was when she realized that I had one too!
