Tackle It Tuesday #8

Photobucket" border="0">

I had a tackle all set and ready to go for today but I just couldn't do it. I was going to go bathing suit shopping. Savie has one so I need one to, right? In the next town over there is an indoor pool and some of the rest of our group have been there a couple of times in the past month (march) and we haven't gone because...mommy doesn't have a bathing suit. My friend J told me just to go in some shorts and top but I don't even have that, lol. But since Savie was having a meltdown and I am trying to follow what my newest parenting book says about that stuff. We tried leaving the store and sitting in the car but that didn't work so we came home. A 45 minute drive with my 3yr old yelling and screaming at me for about 30 min of it. (she fell asleep after that). Not the tackle I wanted to get done but I think I have tackled the whole temper tantrum in stores issue, lol.

I know this is late but I'm hoping that next week my tackle will be my receipt box and getting our taxes done.

It takes a village.......

to raise a child as the saying goes and I love that saying. I joke with Mike that Savie is a "community child" . When I say that I mean that she is comfortable with the other moms at the library or at the park or even with Chester, Mike's friend. Just yesterday she took Chet's hand and walked out to the truck without Mike or I being out there, like it was just so normal to do. Then today we went to the park, since we have been in the house for most of the week, we met one of the other mom's mother-in-law for the first time and she was fine. She walked away from me and took this woman's hand and pulled her off to play with her and her "boyfriend". For about 10 minutes I wasn't paying attention to her, because she was with another mom, but when I looked over to she what she was up to, she was being held by the mil!!!!!!! I was laughing so hard, so cracks me up. But try to touch her or talk to her somewhere else or if she doesn't know you and she pulls away. So at least she knows the difference between a "good" person and a "bad" person.

Kind of a bad

weekend. Savie has come down with a cold, which is not so bad, it's just a bad cough and a runny nose. I was hoping that I wouldn't get it but no such luck so we are both coughing our lungs out. So there will be no storyhour for us this week unless one of us is better by Thurs. This is just not fun for either one of us. Keep your fingers crossed for us.

WIC

Ok so we had a WIC appt on the 6th and Savie is doing great. She's 38 1/4 inches tall and 33 1/2 lbs, the WIC lady (I can't remember her name) said that she is in the 90th percentile for her height and 67th percentile for her weight. She is so tall sevearl people have asked me if she's 3-4yr old. I think it's so funny. I have to find a way to post some pictures of her soon.
