I am a stay at home mom of a sweet little girl and her little baby brother! Madison was born in July 2004, and my life hasn't been the same ever since. I love staying home with her and Jonah and watching them change a little more with each day!

Waaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Madison has had a rough couple of days! The trip to the pool was definitely a bright spot in the middle of some serious crying. Yesterday she was playing really well in the nursery with some other kids and a woman that was working in there, so I left to go back to the service. They said she was fine for 10-15 minutes, but then another kid started crying and that worried Madison enough to make her look for me. When she couldn't find me she, of course, started crying. They calmed her down, but she would cry for a second every few minutes. After doing that for 5-10 minutes, though, she apparently lost it. So they buzzed me (they give the parents pagers) and I returned to my hysterical child. She stopped crying the second I took her, but she looked pathetic. :( Of course, nothing went her way after that. She tried pushing a dump truck and the bed of it flipped up and hit her in the face. Tears. She thought I left her alone during her snack when I was really sitting right behind her. Tears. A boy gave her a hug, because he knew she had been sad. Tears. She sat in the rocking chair and another boy wanted to help her rock. Smiles, then tears. She was the littlest one there, so to all the 2 year olds she was the "baby" and they wanted to play with her. I think it was a bit overwhelming. We shall try again, though.

This evening wasn't much better. She was (for some unknown reason) swallowing her Goldfish crackers whole after dinner. So, of course, she gags on one and gets really upset, crying her eyes out. I imagine it hurt her little throat. :( When I put her in the tub for her bath, she was apparently all watered out from the pool and stood up crying the whole time. I think it was the quickest bath ever! Later, after she brushed her teeth, she was throwing things into the tub while I washed my hands. The bath mat was in the laundry room, because she peed on it after I took her diaper off for her bath earlier in the evening. So, of course, she falls and hits her face on the tub. She instantly had a shiner. It swelled and turned purple, but it seemed like it got better before she went to sleep. We shall see in the morning. So she comes into the living room, plops down on her Tigger couch, and throws her head back into the wall. More crying. I wanted to get some laundry folded really quick before I put her to bed, so Curtis was sitting at her little table playing with her. Guess what I hear? Yep, more crying! She apparently fell and hit her nose and chin on the table. On top of everything else, she is teething again, so it's just a really tough time for her!

She is asleep now, so all is well. I think I will go join her. Good night!
