Eating Squash....


We have had a rough couple of days. Andie has been SOOOOOO ornery. We attempted park day yesterday and she cried/yelled at all the kids who got near her or even attempted to play on something she was playing on (like the entire jungle gym). I thought, REALLY, am I ready for the terrible twos? So, I bowed out gracefully and said, "Guess we will try next week!" She has been so emotional over EVERYTHING, mean to Ali and just not a happy camper.

I was talking to my sister and she suggested, "Maybe she is getting her 2 year molars!" I hadn't even considered that. So I checked and guess what??!! Andie is getting her two year molars! Her gums are beat red, swollen and she really cried out when I tried to touch them. What a smart sister I have. So, I put some orejel on them and what do we have - our happy little Andie back! Thanks Jill - I would have just made her suffer through, had a long few weeks and been irritated throughout it all.

Ali on the other hand has learned to imitate Andie's crying and screaming and thinks it is funny! She continues to grow without my permission and has found the stairs to be her new toy! I have two crazy little girls - but I love them!

Thanks, Molly, for your work. I love what you do on the blog. You are great to take care of the kids all the time and a great mother!

Aren't sister's the best! I sure wish we could have another girl so Ali would have a sister to lean on throughout her life too. Guess that will be what her cousins are for. Thanks for the invite to your blog. So happy to be apart of your life. Love you!

Look at those eyes!!! They are beautiful! Don't feel to bad about the teething thing, I often forgot about the 2 year molar thing and that was with my 4th child :)

If only everyone were as smart and on top of things like me...sorry only enough room for one perfect person on earth at a time!! ha ha ha. For those of you who really know me...my two year old is only 3-4 months older than Andie...so all trouble that Molly starts getting into, we are just finishing up. But thanks for making me sound great anyway! Teething is SO FUN!!
