What a great ending to the night.

Last night was like a roller coaster overall for me. My poor baby had her first kinda big owie. She grabbed my hot curling iron and burned the base of her left index finger. I felt horrible. Burns hurt as an adult, and we understand what happened. Being 20 months old with a burn has to be such a scary thing, she wants to run and touch everything and her poor hand keeps hurting. :( Although I had told her several times it was hot and not to touch it she obviously did not understand exactly what that meant. Everyone keeps pointing out "she won't do that again", and I understand the logic of the saying, but it was making me mad. My poor baby is in pain and that is what you have to say to me? I guess because it didn't make her feel better for them to say that I didn't want to hear it. ??

Then because I was trying to make her feel better I was late to my Anatomy class (fine by me, I would have missed for her). We had a test and this teacher only gives an alotted time frame for tests (ie: test begins 7:15 and ends 7:45) and if you are late you still only have until 7:45. I was so worried I wouldn't have enough time. Then when I rushed into class he told me the test was open book!! How cool is that?! I ended up being the second person done in the class!

After class I went out and had a much needed mommy night with a couple of good girlfriends. It was much needed, and a blast to boot! I love hanging out with each of the girls and it was the first time they had met each other and it went great! Girls nights are going to have to happen much more frequently!!

I hope everyone has a great day!

I guess they don't call em the "terrible twos" for nothin.

Wowzers! Toddlerhood is so demanding! "I do it!" "mommy sit here" "I done!" these are just a few of the demands to grace my ear drums on a daily basis. I have had to begin doing time outs, which breaks my heart. Don't get me wrong it is filled with LOTS of good stuff too, but it seems on the days we disagree, we REALLY disagree. :-/

Take today for example, we are playing and she spit on me!! I couldn't believe it! She had to be put on a time out, and she cried for the whole 60 seconds of it. Whew! I just hope my patience comes back in the next few seconds. Lol.

We did our first painting activity the other day and it was so fun!! We turned an old coffee canister into the new home for her crayons. She loved it and and asks almost daily now if we can paint. Although the canister didn't turn out how I "planned" (there we go with my over-planning haha) it is beautiful to me because she made it how she wanted to.





She wanted to paint all day! Here is the finished product:





Gotta get the day going, hope its a great one for everyone!
