Welcome To The World Baby Jack!
I am so excited, my BFF was induced on Friday and had the most beautiful baby boy on Saturday morning! He is so precious and just perfect! Congrats Muriel, Jerry and Sophie!
What Happens When....
I don't do "clean up time" for 48 hours...
My 2 1/2 year old decides she is going to do "home work"...
I realise "home work" is being done with permanent ink pen and try to remove the pen...
She pulls out the big guns and gives me the "I wuv u" face...
Mommy caves and pulls out the "Princess Tent" which is ooohhh sooo much more fun than "home work"!

I CHEATED!
So my hair has been out of control and I haven't had a chance to see my regular stylist in quite some time. So on Friday..... I cheated on her, and well, let's just say, I got what I deserved! I went to a "local salon chain" and got the $16.95 chop and yep, I now look like I'm 12!!! Please let my hair grow super fast otherwise I am going to be wearing a pony for the next 6 weeks!!! Great! Am I rockin' the bangs or what!!??

BALLET!
So lately Teagan has been obsessed (painfully) with "Angelina Ballerina" on PBS Kids Sprout. She dances around the living room telling me to watch her because she is doing ballet! It is pretty funny! So last night I had Lynn, Stacy & Scott over for pot roast, Scott started singing "Go Cubs Go!" and Teagan added a tribute of her own!! (remember to turn off the song at the bottom of the page before you watch this)

WE LOVE BIRTHDAYS!!
We spent a really great day yesterday celebrating Luka's 3rd Birthday and Austin's 1st Birthday! We had so much fun hanging out with everyone and eating yummy cake!
So Teagan is supposedly potty trained right? I did the happy dance and everything! I no longer have to purchase diapers, YES!! Well... now I have to buy stock in 2T panties??!! Seriously, does anyone else's toddler completely forget that they are actually potty trained and where the bathroom is, all in 1 day?? Or do they just decide "Screw it! Today I am going to make my Mom's head spin around 5 times in the space of 30 mins, at someone else's house, in the middle of a Birthday party"???
I am at a loss for words... Why the complete digression?? Anyway... back on track today, no accidents?? Anyone have the key code for the 2 1/2 year old thought process?? Willing to pay =)
All that aside, we had fun!! Come on "baby Jack" we can't wait to meet you!!

WHAT NOW??!!
Where has the month gone??!! Just realized that it is already the middle of August, holy shiz!!
Teagan is moving right along, potty trained (TG)!, a total chatty cathy (I remember the days I used to wish she could just talk - now she doesn't stop)!!
...and of course along with all this progress comes the "Temper Tantrum"...
Yes, the uncontrollable, inconsolable, crocodile tears, wailing like a banshee, temper tantrums... and why?... all because the wrong song came on the radio!! WTF?? What the fuzz is Teagan going to do when she hits 16 and I have to tell her she can't go the party where EVERYONE will be because it is unsupervised?? I have a feeling the "qualities" she got from me are going to come back and bite me in the ass in about 13 years!!!
I am hoping that this is a "stage" and she grows out of it soon, there are only so many times you can put a child into 'timeout' in an hour! You know you no longer have control when she does something I have just told her not to do, and she walks over to her 'timeout chair' and sits herself down!?? Seriously, what now??
I am sure I was never as challenging as Teagan is, as a child. I am pretty sure my Mom would tell you I was an angel and the perfect child 24/7 - so what's up with the payback?? LOL
Another 'stage' we are moving through is the "little Mommy" stage, which for the most part can be really cute, except when her 'baby' starts talking to you at 1:30 in the morning as you stumble to the bathroom, and just about scares the living shiz out of you! Thank you to Nicole for providing this fabulous 'baby' for chats at 1:30 am =) (for those of you who are not familiar, I am referring to the motion stimulated 'baby Shrek' doll).
Teagan loves her BFF Sophie and always asks about her and to see pics of her, so I was explaining to T that Sophie's Mommy is going to have a baby, "Baby Jack", and that Sophie is going to have a little brother. Well... Baby Shrek is now affectionately known as "Baby Jack"!
