A year of firsts for her, first smile, first roll over, first sit up, first crawl, first word, first stand, first step . *brief pause while ...
As a special treat I thought I would add this picture, it was taken a few weeks ago, it is Ayla and her grandma, and yes that is how she looks and acts whenever anyone but mommy holds her! ]]> http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180696/ http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180696/ Wed, 22 Nov 2006 08:10:26 -0800 mommyofWHA Well what a long week it has been. Visitations, funeral, a wake, all in 3 days, hubby was gone for nearly a week, he gets home and all we have been doing is fighting, I think his mom brain washed him lol, I always have been and always will be "that woman that took my baby away". Oh well. On ... On a wow note, Ayla walked for the first time yesterday, one step, then two, then three.. but today nothing, tried several times to get her to try, but she doesnt want to haha. I am a bit sad today though, this time last year I was pregnant for the very last time, sniff sniff, Ayla will be 1 tomorrow and so ends the saga of my baby years!!   *Eyes welling with tears for the millionth time today*
I hear the kids fighting over something so I guess I will go, amazing how quiet it is during the day, until Will gets home and Hannah just has to argue and fight with him over the smallest of things!!!]]> http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180752/ http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180752/ Tue, 21 Nov 2006 13:19:46 -0800 mommyofWHA Ok well maybe this is just me ranting about something trivial but I am really annoyed right now!!! I just wrote an article for advice on my son having a christmas cookie decorating party and as soon as I was finished and tried to publish it , it was reported because I used the word knife, which was a very ... http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180755/ http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180755/ Tue, 14 Nov 2006 08:26:34 -0800 mommyofWHA My sweet little baby learned how to give kisses yesterday, so it was a day of a million wet sloppy goopy kisses, the best feeling in the world!!! I cant believe that in a matter of days Ayla is going to be 1 years old, I think I cry every day, I almost think I have become slightly depressed over ... I cant believe that in a matter of days Ayla is going to be 1 years old, I think I cry every day, I almost think I have become slightly depressed over the idea, my very last baby isnt going to be a baby anymore!
Everything else is ok here, all the kids are sick with nasty colds, been going on for weeks now, getting tired of wiping noses!!
Will is doing great in school, has a steady girlfriend from the other grade one class, they plan on getting married haha, tried to explain to Will that there will be alot of girls in his life between now and the time he gets married, after all he is only 6, but he is adament about marrying Makenna! Very cute!
Hannah on the other hand has developed a multiple personality of sorts.. one moment a sweet and loveable little girl, next moment wild temper tantruming, purple faced, hand and teeth clenched , screaming wild child!! I really cant wait for the terrible 2s to be over, I never had this with Will and well I will say it is really playing with my emotions, feel like I could just break into a run for door somedays !!!
Oh well ... hope everyone has a great day, I am done ranting like a crazy woman for the day!]]> http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180765/ http://www.minti.com/members/mommyofwha/blog/180765/ Thu, 09 Nov 2006 07:13:53 -0800 mommyofWHA Wow where did the week go .. ok so tommorrow is actually Friday.. but it is close , an hr and a few mins till tommorrow haha.
