ranting

well, the toddler group today was really fun, i am so glad we are able to keep it going. there were 5 moms each with a baby 4 mo to 9 mo, and toddlers ranging from 2 to 4 years! there were 11 kids in all. pretty exciting. i hope the other mommies that came enjoy this group as much as i do!

well, the toddler group was at my MIL's house, because my apartment is tiny, and because she offered. she has a large "play"room with odds and ends, and the few things i thought would be ignored, KATHRYN decided to get in to, when she usually has no interest in them. i think she acts out when a bunch of other kids are around. overstimulated.

she asked for and ate red beans and rice this morning for breakfast...if that isn't strange idk what is.

after we got home she insisted on feeding daniel his baby food. and i showed her how to do it, and she was doing good, so i decided to let her take over...completely. i got up and went to do something in the kitchen when i hear he's whining, i turn around and he's staring at me. kathryn has a spoonful of babyfood trying to give it to him and he's turning his head, i tell her you have to get him to turn his head. so she barely touches his head, he turns, she puts spoon in mouth (very well i might add) and he jerks his head my way with a mean pouty face as if to say, why are you letting her feed me MOM! what's wrong with you! i had to laugh. i got it on video, but it takes too long to upload, so i'll spare. he refused to take the food from her when i wasn't around, but as soon as the spoon got in my hands, he gobbled it up. what a turkey!!

tonight when i put them in the tub, daniel started to get really fussy, and i knew it was because he was tired, so i hurried up and bathed him and got him out and dressed and let kathryn play a while longer while i nursed him to sleep. it took maybe 5 mins to get him to bed, and when i returned to finish with kathryn, i noticed the water was really sudsy, more so than what would have been on the rag i bathed daniel with, i looked at the bottle of baby wash on the edge of the tub, picked it up and it was empty!!! it had a good half bottle left, and some how kathryn had gotten it open and emptied it into the water! haha. the water had a slimy feel it was so thick with soap! i just laid her down in the water and rubbed it all over her. she was pretty dirty, but she should be squeaky clean with all that soap!  fun stuff. 

well, i guess that about does it.

So funny! My kids still do that...good thing I always use the lavendar off brand baby wash or they would cost me a fortune...I put some on a rag for each of them and hide it now! Little stinkers! what one can't think of the other DOES!

This week was our first time to the play group and we had a good time, too.
I'm glad to know that Allison is not the only mischief-maker. That soap stunt sounds exactly like something she would do.

Just in the past month, Kailey has dumped out two bottles of soap! The first was a huge bottle that was 3/4 full. The second one was the one that I bought to replace the other, so it was completely full. I was so disgusted.

I had fun at the play group, too. I'm glad that it is working out.
