Fantastic Madalyn
A lunch-time discovery from the past few days: Madalyn LOVES pickles. The very sight of the jar sends her into a wide-eyed frenzy of longing. She gnaws them down to nubs and leaves a trail of seeds down her bib. Who would've thought? Especially after "Evan the Picky."
She also loves Fantastic brand's "Big Cup of Soup," the beef noodle flavor. It's SO gross. I thought I was giving her chunks of beef, (after all it is called beef noodle,) and then I read that it's vegetarian on the side. I'd love to know what the brown crumbly chunks are...tofu? I don't think so. But Madalyn loves Fantastic's soup.
I just now changed Fantastic Madalyn's diaper and decided to leave her bottomless in her dress. She walked away hesitantly and kept turning around to pause and look at me, like 'do you realize what you've just done...you know I'm naked under here?'
I said, "I know, I realize you're naked--enjoy!"
Although after this morning I can't believe I'm taking this risk again. She has a terrible rash right now from her antibiotics and I've been letting her walk around like this to air out so it can heal. This morning I found she'd stepped in her you-know-what, had it all over her hands and left trails of it everywhere. (Yeah...I shouldn't have told you that...you're never gonna let your kids crawl around on my carpet again, let alone lie on it yourself.) Oh well.
I've gone through nearly an entire bottle of carpet cleaner and run out of paper towels. My Super-Husband is going to get more at the store on his way home tonight while I get a lesson in how to be Supermom at the pool as he works late...
Swim class is tonight and I have to somehow get in the pool with Madalyn and watch Evan in the baby pool...hmmm...that should be interesting. On top of it, pictures are tonight! Wow...this is going to be nuts...though not as nuts as Supermom Kelly who came with her 2 and 3 year olds and 6 month old ALONE. Unbeknownst to her, she'll be giving me my Supermom lessons tonight. Pray I catch on fast!!
