11 months and CRABBY

Mary turns 11 months old today and despite wearing a super cute outfit to school she was so crabby this morning!! When I got her to daycare I gave her tylenol for her teeth and discovered poopy pants and boogers in her nose maybe that was the issue.

I wondered if she was keying off my mood the maids come today and I was stressed because as usual Courtney had not done everything I asked her to do - I got the old "don't worry I will get it done" which drives me NUTS because that is later followed up by "I forgot" or "you didn't tell me to do that" YES I DID!! I guess the alternative is doing everything myself but I figure since I am at work or driving to and from work for 12 hours a day I think I deserve a little bit of help from the girl riding the gravy train right?

OK back to the daughter who can't say "I forgot" yet she is starting to copy what we do and remember things. Like Jim patted the pillows on the bed and said you can lay down here, she has been patting the pillows and then laying down its really cute. She will sometimes make the Indian sound with her mouth but not all the time like when I try to get her to show Jim! Here's hoping she is in a better mood tonight - I want to take pictures!!

Maybe she knows you will want to take pictures and is dreading it already like all of our kids do when we get the ol' camera out and stick it in their faces...

Hey, I have "I forgot" and "I will do it at my house too". Let it go! At least you have someone coming to clean, that is a great blessing. Happy 11 month birthday Mary!!

And remember "I don't know" and "Not me"...I think they must live at my house along side "I forgot" and "I will do it". It is no wonder the seems so crowded all the time with all the extra people that I can't even see living there! It is much harder for Court to blame them for stuff than it is for my kiddos who according to them are never responsible for anything that happens!!!!

Kids! Can't live with them...Can't send them back!

Great now you have two women whining. Three if you count my daughter American Express on the phone. Let's see that will make three more women upset with me today. This Blog is going to make me an orphan. Where's Sheila? Maybe she will adopt me. In Mary's defense stop forcing the camera on her. How happy would you be with a load in your pants, no matter how cute your outfit is. I can't believe Theresa is talking about Chris like that. I know she can't be referring to my grandkids. Okay I have to go. I would like to spend more time with you, but there is a whole world out there for me to piss off. I have so much to do. OK that's four whiners.

I will adopt you on 3 conditions...you don't fart, you don't drink beer, and you don't complain about my cooking cuz I already have one man in the house that does all 3!!!!!

Well I can tell you he is only 1 for 3 there. That man can let one rip like no one's business and then blame it on Mom! Complaining about Mom's cooking is another hobby - or he really wants to eat ice cream for dinner and not Mom's cooking I am not sure. On the positive side I don't think he would miss the beer much.
