Little Friends and Finger Foods

I pulled up to day care to pick up Bug yesterday and Miss Nona ran out to my car to rush me in to see what Bug was doing.  Check it out!

Bug and her best friend, little L.  Miss Nona tells me they are best buds and always play together.
 I guess Bug has already found a guy who can make her laugh. :)
 That's little J, right there.  She loves Bug...so much so that she stands her up, hugs her, and lets her go.  That would explain why Bug has quickly fallen to the floor in this pic.  Little J has good intentions.  My kid has no fear.  When she fell right to the floor she didn't even flinch.  Ha!
 That's little L#2 up front. Even though she is older than Bug, she wears the same size clothes.  Some days, even day care mixes them up and when I pick up Bug I notice she has someone else's clothes on.  Easy mistake.  Between all the cries, hugs, and play time, it's sometimes hard to keep track.  Good news- we haven't had this mix up in awhile. (Knock on wood.)
 Yesterday we had our first try at finger foods- bananas with a sprinkle of crushed cheerios.  Bug did okay.  She was unsure about what to do, but once I gave her the okay to put food in her own mouth, instead of using two or three fingers, she started shoveling the food in and it landed right onto her lap.  Awesome.  By the way, it's kind of tough to get banana and cheerios off of a nice pink dress.  Next time, naked finger food time for sure.  Until bath time, she pretty much smelled like cheerios, but don't all kids kind of smell like cheerios?
 Even with cheerios and bananas all over her, she's gorgeous!  (And I'm totally not bias.)
 Sometimes a little Bug gets into things and this is what happens.
God Bless,
Kat

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

"Thank you for being a friend..."

[And now, a short introduction with the theme song to the sitcom, The Golden Girls] "Thank you for being a friend, Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true your a pal and a confidant. And if you through a party, Invited everyone you ever knew... You would see the biggest gift would be from me, And the card attached would say thank you for being a friend." This morning, Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux on my favorite show, The Golden Girls, passed away. If you know me, you could understand how upset I might be.  (Quote from Blanche:  " There is a fine line between having a good time and being a wanton slut. I know. My toe has been on that line." ) The Golden Girls was, is and will always be my favorite show...EVER. Within the last few years, both Estelle Getty (who played Sophia) and Bea Arthur (who played Dorothy) passed away as well and that in itself was a tragedy; for we all know what an amazing duo they made!    (Quote fro...

What if...

I was on the phone today with my brother, Kyle, and was telling him about my emotionally charged moment in a parking lot as I dropped off the hubs at work after having lunch with him.  As I drove through the aisle of the parking lot, a parked car quickly backed out of it's spot without looking.  My natural instinct, of course, was to stop, rather than move forward.  Thankfully, however, the car quickly stopped itself from hitting the front passenger side of my car, where the hubs was sitting.  I pulled into a spot to calm myself down.  My heart was racing.  Wyatt turned to me and asked, "Are you okay?"  I just could not find the words to respond.  (Strange, I know.)  I was breathing so heavily and I think he realized I was about to freak out and said, "We're fine.  She didn't hit us."  He was right.  The driver had stopped quickly enough and everyone was safe.  However, I still could not get myself to calm down.  3, 2...
