10 Random Thoughts

1. Morgan is becoming a picky eater: I fed Morgan Turkey and Green Beans last week. I thought she would like it because it was green, but needless to say, she hated it. Now my sweet baby has lost all trust in me and has developed a new habit of sticking her tongue all the way out to see exactly what I have put on the spoon. If she likes it she will smile and open her mouth, but if she is unimpressed she will gag and make coughing noises. I opened three jars of baby food today trying to find something she would like.

2. Now that my children are mobile they must be supervised at all times: Like I said in my last post my children have been blobs. You know, not really moving from the position I put them in and not getting into stuff. Well today, I forgot. Someone rang my doorbell and I got up from my bed, where Morgan and I were playing, and went to it. It was a guy wanting to by a mower conditioner from Walter. I swear it sounded like he was saying a mair conditioner and he said, "You know what a mair conditioner is baby?" I was trying to think fast but all I could think of was an air conditioner. So I got a piece of paper to have him write down his number and what he wanted and on it he wrote a mower conditioner. Whatever, anyway, I left Morgan on the bed thinking I would be letting in the therapist or someone I knew and would be right back to get her. She isn't crawling yet and so far hasn't proven herself to be a fast mover. I was SO WRONG! She rolled off the bed. I heard the thud and came around the corner to see her lying on her back looking up. She cried when she saw me and I picked her up. She was fine in the end but I still feel terrible. Nothing is bruised or broken. She is happy and playing fine. But I feel like such a creep. How could I just leave her unattended. Bad Mommy! Thank you God that she was okay!

3. Like Karen Carpenter sang "Rainy Days and Monday's Always Get Me Down": Well almost, I don't mind the rain as long as I don't have anywhere to go, but Mondays are not good. I feel like I must get spoiled from the weekend, having William home, because Mondays I feel like I am dragging around and end up counting down the hours until he gets home from work.

4. No matter how much I vacuum, the carpet is always going to be dirty: Well at least it is going to feel like that when I put my clean sweet babies' down on it to crawl around. When their drooly lips come in contact with it and come back up with a piece of grass or lint attached I feel like they need a bath. I have to chant "A little dirt never hurt" all day, just to get through it.

5. Movie Review: Rented a couple of movies this weekend A) Fun With Dick and Jane - very cute and funny. Saw it in the theatre once before and so this was the second time I have seen it. Still funny the second time. B) Bee Season - Saw this and thought "Hmm, Richard Gere, must be good" Wasn't good. Thought it was going to be all about a little girl practicing for the spelling bee but instead it was a religious movie all about Kabbalism. It was stupid and long and made me feel very icky. In one scene the little girl goes into a trance and ends up having like a seizure on the floor and this is all supposed to be bringing her closer to god. It was crap. C) The Weather Man - haven't watched it yet. I will let you know if it is good or not.

6.) FOOD: I added two recipes to the side of this blog where my links are. Check them out. They are very yummy.


7.) Countdown to the Girls First Birthday:

9.) Thank You, Thank You: Thanks Mimi and Poppy for watching the girls this Saturday so that William and I could spend some time together.
And Thanks PawPaw for having us over last night for dinner and a movie. Thanks for the diapers and the gas money. It means a lot to us to have such a wonderful family that is there for us and for our sweet girls!

10.) The End: William wants me to get off the computer now so we can go watch that movie I was talking about. Talk to you later!
