snow

snow is great until...you have a sick baby that needs to go to the doctor and the roads are covered with snow:( chesley's appointment is at 3:15 so maybe the roads will be better then!

pictures

and seriously when we find the charger for the camera and dan teaches me how to live in 2010 i will be posting pictures with every blog! i'm looking forward to showing off my beautiful girls:) yep i brag:) but they are truly amazing and perfect and make me cry with complete love happiness and fulfillment they are what keeps me breathing and i will always brag!

(oh and i do not do commas and periods so you will notice everything from here on is very stream-of-conciousness...i do apologize for any difficulty in reading it may present)

complex conversation

is there a delicate way to discuss psychology with a 7 year old? i just tried...tough one though.  chesley and charsy were climbing on my oh so fabulous four legged walker. my walker has little side rails for lack of a better description. charsy climbed up to the top rails and chesley was trying to climb to the secondary side rails but her head was hitting charsy's crotch. (i am aware of frued's second stage of the psychosexual stages...the anal complex stage taking place around ages 1-2. i am aware chesley is very much into this bottom thing...and other peoples bottoms.) so i tried very gingerly to explain to charsy that we didn't want to encourage the behavior of chesley ramming her head into charsy's, or anyones, bottom. charsy thought it was hysterical and yes once funny but repeatedly...no. so the conversation included the word complex (not anal just complex) and charsy, 7, said "what's that" thus i explained how people could get a strange way of thinking about an act or an object that hinders them in some way potentially (look i was on the spot) to which charsy replied i don't know any of what you just said and hopped off the walker. i just gave a giggle of relief and finished my walk to the dishwasher.

makeup

so my skin is extremely sensitive! i cannot wear any base or powder because i will break out within a couple hours of putting it on my skin.  does anyone have any recommendations?

happy birthday chesley!

Chesley is officially two years old today!  Can't believe it has been two years already!

daily aches, pains and whines

So today might i add...i'm beyond mad.  There is some kind of rage pulsing through every bit of me...i think it's the new medicine the doctor put me on...so i'm gonna stop taking it.  Oh and my stomache is in knots...ouch!  I'm so ready for a definite diagnosis!

Part I of potty training!

Today Chesley is wearing training panties....we'll see how it turns out:)
