Where Did Wednesday Go??

Not really the best picture of me but still such a cute shot that I had to share! My two children! And this says alot for Bob because he hates the water and he came in anyway to hang out with his Mommy and Erika. Peters cat Burt took the photo for us. Today just completely flew by and I never took any photos! My only opportunity was bath time. Just so Grandma knows - Erika wore her pink Winnie The Pooh shirt today. Michelle and I went to our meeting again...weight watchers that is. I am proud to say that I have lost 7.8 pounds in the past 3 weeks. It is a difficult transition but I am managing...


I spoke with a professional that I know on child psychology about Erika's reaction to me telling her "no." He agreed with me that her reaction is the extreme and very very sensitive. He said that being sensitive is inherited and she seems to have received that gene from me! Poor Baby. I feel for her and will do everything I can to toughen her skin. It really is difficult being so so sensitive. He also told me I handled the situation exactly right. Telling your child you love them even though they did something wrong is the most healthy way to handle the situation. I must admit, she is doing so much better with not throwing the food on the floor.

I think I might just have to frame this picture because I LOVE IT!! I wanted to make mention of Erika's love for pancakes, peaches, mini quiche, and ice pops. I still feed Erika one jar of veg. or fruit at each meal. This way I know she is getting some nutrition. And well, that is it. It is currently 7:54 and she is hopefully sleeping for the night. The past few nights she has been a complete PARTY ANIMAL!!!

Here are a couple of low action videos...I can never get her to perform when I am taping her!

I love bath pics especially when I get them on my phone. Glad you got the reassurance about yesterday because I don't want you to feel bad about what happened.
