Yuck Alert !

Note: This should have posted last week but we had technical difficulty.

This was a crazy week. It started off with me getting the lovely stomach flu which came with a migraine complete with fever, chills, aches, no sleep, etc. The majority of the kids were in school and it was just me and my 2yr old home. Needless to say she found my vomiting into the commode fascinating. So much that whenever we enter the bathroom now to commence her potty training she always starts off with opening the lid of the commode and proceeds to make all sorts of vomit noises complete with her mouth open and tongue out. I'd say she is a quick study wouldn't you? I asked my husband if he thought she was mocking me. He just laughed. She thinks the whole thing is very funny and lots of fun. I'm not having any luck potty training her, but with just one vomit lesson and she becomes a pro at it. Go figure.. On a positive note, the kids did extremely well while I was sick. They really pulled together and were awesome which was so great because I felt so bad. Thanks love bugs!

~On to a better subject. Last night I was sitting on the couch and my 2 yr old climbed up onto my lap. The Christmas tree is right next to the couch so she proceeded to take off ornaments and move them around to where she thinks they should be. Once she had them all arranged the way she liked she just sat back and gazed at the tree and said, "Pitty lights". I grabbed the camera and took this picture. She looks so precious in it. I agree my little angel, pretty lights. Isn't she adorable!

Today I went to pick up my son and daughter from school so that I could bring home Catbird's class guinea pig. He is sooo cute. I always wanted a guinea pig but my mom was not very keen on the idea of any small rodent looking creature coming into the house. That and the fact that we always had a plethora of cats around. His name is Pepper. He is very friendly. Catbird loves to feed him, pet him, watch him, and even play with him. Abby (my 2yr old) loves to watch him also. She pets him only when we are holding him though. He is really a big hit with the whole family. I found one admirere that Pepper might not be so thrilled with. I stepped into the kitchen to get something and this is what I saw. I am sure he is thinking that we brought him home some take-out. Yumm yumm!

NEWS ALERT!! SPIDEY CITING!!
Spiderman has been cited in a neighborhood backyard!! A little girl was innocently playing on her trampoline when all of a sudden KABAM! Spiderman jumped down to join her. "He just came out of no where!" she replied when questioned. No one knows from where he came but rumor has it that he has been since seen in my living room scaling various furniture.
