we have officially hit the "terrible twos" and i have no idea what to do about it. and what's really bad is that i have heard threes are even worse. hannah's going to make me crazy before then. we have started the full fledged, kicking, screaming, flailing around tantrums. and not just at home. no, i couldn't get that lucky. yesterday i had to carry hannah under my arm out of the play area at the mall with her kicking and screaming at the top of her lungs. of course, everyone is looking at me like i am some kidnapper or something. at least hannah looks just like me, so really there's no denying i am her mother. that was the second tantrum at the mall. later, we went to target, and she had 2 more in the store. thankfully, cody was with me for those, and while i tried on swimsuits, he took hannah to the bathroom to "have a talk". not that that really works. she just looks at you like "are you done yet?". she is going to be the death of me!
anyway, on to the swimsuit...i HATE swimsuit shopping almost more than anything (bras are the worst). but, after swim lessons, i decided i needed a one-piece if i was going to be in the water much with hannah. so, we went to target. and, believe it or not, i was successful! i've never had that easy of a time searching for a swim suit. in fact, i found 2, but i really needed a size they didn't have in one of them. but, i was still happy:)
everyone keeps asking me what we are doing for mother's day. i do appreciate everything that everyone does for me on mother's day, but aren't we supposed to honor our mothers (and fathers) every day? why do we have 1 day out of the year that we are "supposed" to do that? there is pressure to buy our moms something beautiful, take them somewhere nice to eat, and make them feel special that day. what about the other 364 days out of the year? i know that my baby and my husband make me feel like the best mom in the world all the time. and i really try to make my mom feel the same way. so, for now we don't really have anything "special" planned. and maybe it is because i get to spend every day with my daughter, and lots of time with my mom that i don't feel like sunday is any different than any other day. i guess i am just lucky!!
hannah is still getting up at least once in the middle of the night every night. it is wearing me out. thankfully she does go back to bed without a fight, but it still breaks up our sleep and is making me very tired. i sure hope this is a phase that is very short-lived.
i was contacted yesterday by a woman that is opening a shop called Handmade with Heart Boutique. She is interested in carrying my tutus and bows in her shop! It is exciting, but it is a consignment shop, which i have not ever dealt with before. i have to put inventory in the shop, and i don't get paid until my stuff sells. it's a little scary to me. i do have enough materials to make some inventory, so i wouldn't really be "out" any money, but i guess my concern is i won't know if my stuff is actually selling or not. i will probably take the leap and try it out, and hopefully won't get burned!
it's friday..............YAY!!!
