All in a days work...

Life with Livie is never dull.

She sure loves to play and sing and talk (she's quite the talker...don't know who she inherited that from...hehe! ;) and ask questions about everything and...well...cry. She still cries quite a bit (still a part of the brain trauma) Some days are better than others and we are still having more better days than bad days, but Livie still has some pretty rough days where there is lots and lots of crying and still some passing out...like I said, never a dull moment here, haha. But Livie is slowly, but surely getting better and its days like this where I know Livie needs me and I'm SO grateful that I get to be home with her as much as I do...even if she is a crazy, little, stinker bug sometimes! (; I sure do love her!

Our days go something like this...

Having a Livie moment...crying...poor thing didn't get to have chocolate for breakfast. haha.

Later that day we went grocery shopping and as I was walking down the aisles grabbing food and what not, people were giggling as they walked past Livie and I...
Guess I need to pay more attention to my child because she was laying in the cart with her nose shoved through the bars making piglet oinks and snorts to everyone that walked past. Cute Liv...


Later that day, Livie climbed up on the countertop (a big no-no), tried to get herself a drink and fell in the sink and got stuck. I'm just glad she didn't fall off the counter!!!



That night, I found her in the curtains, like this...spinning herself in circles, wrapping herself up tighter and tighter...I got to her just before she pulled the curtain rod down on her...
Some where in there she also managed to get some hot pink nail polish on her nice bed comforter, I wasn't too thrilled about that one.
Whew!! A lot goes on all in a days work. My little Bug is one busy girl, but it just means she is healthy and well to be causing havoc like this, so I can't complain too much.
*Disclaimer: I swear I do watch my child and tend to her needs! Swear!! (:

Tea, anyone??


Alyvia loves playing dress up and having tea parties

We were at a funeral and Livie had to go potty (for the 3rd time) so I took her to the restroom and as we were leaving I flung the door open harder than I intended to and the bottom edge of the door caught her toe and toenail just right...cutting the skin and pulling the nail off. AAAAHHHH!! It was bleeding all over the place and Livie was SCREAMING until she passed out...
I felt like the worst mommy ever, I felt SOOO bad!!! After a few tears from both of us and a pink Dora band aid, everything is okay now.

Ouch - I bet she screamed. That picture is definitely not for the weak stomached! Eck. No worries - every mom does something along those lines. It makes you feel so bad though.
Looks like your little bug keeps you on your toes! Funny girl!

I am so glad she keeps you busy - I would feel totally picked on if is was only my kids that did those things! Even the tough moments are great to look back on, those little stinks make life worth living!

I second all the comments on you being a GREAT mom, Megan. :) And where did you find Alyvia's fluffy white slip that she's playing dress up in? I used to dress up in slips just like that and dance all over the house. I've looked for slips like that for Julia with no luck...

Liv is so adorable! I love the tea party dress up... too cute! I swear that EVERY time nash has gotten seriously hurt, I have been right behind him.. it does make you feel bad. So I'm glad to hear that other great moms go thru the same! Life is never dull after kiddos...
