Puke, Puke, and more Puke!

Wow. My morning started off terrible. I had a rashy hive thing on my neck from a new face wash, I forgot the thing I went to the grocery store for, and then I forgot the $5.00 change I got at the little self check out thing at said store. I got to work, settled in and was telling my co- workers all about my bad luck morning, and about 30 minutes later the phone rang.
Darby was in the health room. On her way from the gym where Kids Network is held to her classroom she threw up all over herself. The Secretary told me the majority was all over her coat, so she couldn't wear that home. Which is great news since it was about 5 degrees out, and this coat I bought from Gap can only be washed in a high effeciency front loaded machine. Yeah, guess who doesn't have one of those. Guess who is triple checking labels on coats next time!!!
Poor Darby. She cannot keep anything down, and is miserable. My wonderful Dad ran to the store and picked her up some gatorade, but the poor little thing couldn't keep that in her little tummy either.
Hopefully Ms. Mo doesnt get this one. Darby is much easier to clean up after!

Oh the wonderful things....


So.. We have started trying to potty train Corgan. When I say trying, I should state it is really laid back with no pressure. We try to have her sit on the toilet when she wakes up, even though most days her diaper is like a brick, and we ask her periodically throughout the day. Yesterday morning she got up, said she wanted to potty and she went a little bit. I jumped up and down (if I had hoops I would fly through those bad boys) and we praised her. She walked out into the living room, and peed all over. Maybe we should diaper her right after from now on?

The girls had their annual check ups last night. Darby is 50% in both weight and height, and Mo is in the 90th for both. Both girls are doing great, and impressed their amazing pediatrician. I love her. I actually look forward to Dr. visits. It was a great night!

School Days!!!!




Well it happened, and Darby will tell you it is HUGE news! Darby was selected as the girl star of the week. She got to choose a prize (High School Musical mechanical pencils) and fill out a questionare all about herself. The "star" gets nominated by teachers for being good, listening, and being a star! She was so proud she had to call me on her ride home from school. We are so proud of our Star of the week!

Corgan told me all about birds tonight. It seems Birds may be the theme this week! She is so lucky to go to such a wonderful preschool/daycare. They choose a theme every week,and each day learn about it, do art projects centered around it, and explore.Last week was dinosaurs, and Toddler 2 was decorated with dinosaurs, and they did so many fun things! She attends Millard Public Schools Foundations Early Childhood Education Center, and it truly is all about education. She has so much fun and learns so much at the same time. We are lucky to be a part of the school, and I love that she was one of the very first babies to attend this awesome school!
Corgan gets so excited about learning, and it is so much fun to watch her grow and all the things she is able to learn!

Corgan turns 2!!!







This past week Corgan Ramona turned 2. Mom and Dad took the day off to spend with her, and the thing she most wanted to do was shop. It really makes me worry about whether or not I will have another totally girly girl. It was a fun day, and she really enjoyed the cake I made her. Corgan is a Yo Gabba Gabba addict, and well I am kind of like her dealer. What can I say YGG is a cool show! We had two cakes this week at our house. The sugar highs have been fun!!
