I used to ride with my dad in the potato truck and we would listen to Paul Harvey 's "The Rest of the Story." I miss those long summer days, my dad, and Paul Harvey; but now you may hear the rest of OUR story! ..."Good Day"

Temperment, Teeth, and Tumbling Two


Today I wanted to rip my hair out. I don't know if Abby is onry because she is FINALLY getting her Eye-teeth or if I am just raising a spoiled brat. Yes the teeth are coming in. Now the fun part. Mike and I decided we would let her keep her pacifier until her teeth came in. She will be two in September, so it is none to soon. I have noticed lately that her temper tantrums are very involved. She hits, throws, and screams everytime she doesn't get her way. I have always thought those kinds of fits were learned behaviors. Since I know she hasn't seen Mike or me act that way, it must not be learned, who knew!

This evening she wanted juice (crystal light), but she already had LOTS. So I gave her plain water instead. She started yelling and throwing the magnets off the fridge to the floor. I had to laugh. What a little nightmare. She was then sent to timeout. CRAZY!
Since today was so horrible for both of us, I was glad gymnastics were today. She needed an outlet. Well, I took some pictures before we left. Do you think I could get some cute ones??? Nope, she then was angry that I was taking so long. She wanted to go! I tried to take pictures at the gym, but my batteries went dead. Go figure. I completely believe in Murphy's Law...

Back to Abbs, not to give you the wrong idea, but yesterday she was so sweet. Everytime I asked for a hug or a kiss, she would come over and give me what we asked for. She was also really helpful putting things away.

Well, I am going to say its the teeth.

I think her pictures are so cute...love her little thighs! I'm glad I'm not the only one who has those days...but mine are usually about 4 days a week like that! Oh, and I can just see you throwing things or kicking and screaming when you don't get your way....so I do think Abby has learned it from you! hahahahaha! Hope today's a better day!
