A Bite, Scratch, and Marinara Sauce

Yesterday was eventful, in more ways than one.  It was so eventful that this blog will be full of large photos so you can see the detail.  

I picked up Bug from day care to find out from the school director that a new student had bit Bug on the back.  (THE KID DID WHAT?!?!  I know, I thought it too.)  I was thinking it wouldn't be too bad.  Then I saw it.  It was pretty deep.

Of course I had to put on her tube top dress so everyone could not only see the bite, but also her yummy neck, arms, and back.  It's no wonder this kid wanted to bite her.  She's so yummy!  But hey, I'm her mom.  I get to do that.  I earned that right.  I gave birth to her.
Apparently she didn't even flinch.  Perhaps she's used to being bitten?  (You know you're all guilty of it.) :P

This is the note they sent her home with...
Did I tell you that Bug has been following McKayla around?  A LOT.  She doesn't so much chase after her, as she does play "follow the leader" with her.  (McKayla is the leader.)  Well, yesterday McKayla had had enough.  She started throwing her paws in the air from a distance and in shock, Bug got scared and started to cry.  Then, ten minutes later, I saw that McKayla had grazed her forehead and actually scratched her!!!  I know, I know...Parental FAIL.
 The only solution, of course, was to eat and roll around on the floor.
 Does anyone else get excited by her armpits?  I know I do!
 Oh yeah...sexy legs.
Maybe she'll stop following McKayla around now.  Eh...one can only hope.
 
Uncle Kris came by again to give Mommy some relief and he brought pizza!  Uncle Kris gave Bug a bath and allowed Mommy some time to make baby food and clean the kitchen (including the floor!).  It's a sad, sad day for Mommy when she looks forward to scrubbing the kitchen floor.  :/
 You see that red stuff in her ear?  That's marinara sauce from the pizza dough she was teething on.  Yeah, she had some.  And to think...I thought it was blood.  Ha!
 We're pretty lucky that Uncle Kris comes by after work.  He brings food, plays with Ella, and let's Mommy eat dinner before 9pm!  And he even keeps her company!  Not that I don't like having conversations with Bug, but sometimes it's nice to understand the person I'm speaking to. :)

Remember this swing from when Bug was little?  The one she hated?  Turns out, she might not hate it, but she is definitely unsure about it.  Big girl in a little swing.
 We're so busy that we don't have time to change the light bulbs! 
 This is my happy baby this morning.  She is too cute and smiles on cue!
Happy weekend, folks!

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...
