The Strongest Little Guy

"I'm a strong little guy!" Desmond victoriously screeches as he picks up the gallon of laundry detergent. He moves the detergent into the kitchen and as if that weren't enough of a challenge, he picks up another gallon of detergent and moves that into the kitchen. "See mommy, I'm a strong little guy!" Mommy smiles and admiringly requests to see the strong little guys big muscles. Desmond immediately throws his arms up as if he were a body builder competing for a trophy. "Wow! You definitely have some huge muscles Desi!" Mommy says. Desmond imagines that he has a cape. "I am going to save you mommy!" Desmond knows that all the superheroes have life-saving muscles. He imagines that mommy has fallen into the water and cannot swim. "Here, take my hand! I will save you!" Says the strong little guy. He saves his mommy from the dangerous waters. "Oh thank you so much! You saved my life!" Mommy says. She leans in to give Desmond a big kiss on the cheek. "Stop it mommy!" Desmond says. He was embarrassed. He was still disguised as a superhero and mommy almost blew his cover.

Whew that was a close one. Desi runs like the speed of lightning and triumphantly sings, "Superman to the day!" Yes, Superman has saved the day.

So Emotional

I am all over the place this week. My emotions are running wild and my eating is out of control! No I'm not preggers, I'm just trying to put up with a visitor (ya'll know what I'm talking about). I wish I could take a vaca with myself during these times because I hate being around people. I can be mean. The men of my house experience my wrath more than anyone else. My poor Desi was so mad with me today because I was so impatient with him. He said, "tell my daddy on You! I told him to go on and tell his daddy. He just seems to pull on that nerve a little more around this time. Not only do I have to deal with a visitor today, I have to deal with allergies! My eyes are swollen, I can't breathe and I feel like if I sneeze one more time I'm gonna scream. With all of that being said, my poor baby didn't really have fun with mommy today. We fussed at each other all night. I felt like I wanted to cry because all I wanted was a little break and I couldn't ...

Poop Catcher

Hello!! I've been gone for a while, but for good reason. I was studying for my state exam for my insurance license. I passed! I am now licensed to write and sell auto and home policies. Woo hoo! So I got my life back. Hubby was so great during this time. He took care of everything and supported me tremendously. Now, Desi was supportive as well. He would join in on my studies. "Want to study with chew mommy," he would say. When I passed, he said "Good job mommy! So proud of you!" (of course daddy coached him). It just warmed my heart. Anyway,  I have to share this hilarious story with you all. One night, earlier last week, we are trying to get Desi to poop in the toilet.  He just refused to sit his little butt down on the seat. We knew he had to poop, so we really wanted him to get on the toilet. My husband was speaking with his mother on the phone and she heard the commotion. She suggested that we just let him go pamperless for the night before going to bed. T...

Food Fight!

My child won't eat dinner! Should I be offended? LOL! I mean, is my cooking that bad? He will nibble on the food and start playing with it. Next thing I know, it's on the floor and the dog is eating it, or Desi is sneaking the edibles under the tray of his high chair. Chris and I will tell him to eat and he turns his nose up and says a big "NO." We never had this problem with him before, so I don't know why he is not interested in eating all of a sudden. I am starting to worry a bit because I don't think he is getting all the nutrients he needs. However, a friend of mine told me that when her son was around Desi's age, she had the same issue with him. Her doctor told her not to worry. He told her that if she could get him to have a teaspoon of food per his age (2 teaspoons for a 2 year old), he will get all the nutrients he needs. I will try that, but, first, how am I going to get him to open up and eat the food? He's a pretty stubborn one. He got th...
