emergency
We had our first experience with the emergency room. Haley was running to get her shoes and she tripped.... smashing into the coffee table. The picture doesnt look all that bad but when it happened it was much worse. Her whole lobe was spit open and it was bleeding a river. so we went to the ER thinking she may need stitches. Jason thought we would be in and out in an hour or so but i knew different. when i told him to get bottles and snacks for the kids he looked at me like i was crazy. I knew we would be there all night. so we get there, wait 4 hours and they send us home with a band aid and some ointment. I knew about two hours into it that she was ok because she was bouncing all around. I wanted to walk out the door and put my own band aid on her but jay wanted to stay because he was sure she would need stitches...... but i was right again! lol Haley was so excited because she got to sleep in our bed for the night. I guess we are just paranoid parents.

in a nut shell
Nothing is super interesting in my life so im just going to go off with what has happened the last couple days. Its been quite frustrating i have to say. First, my dear maddy, i dont even know where to begin. She isnt even two yet and she throws the biggest fits ive ever seen. I may be exaggerating a tad because all i have to compare her to is haley who was a mini saint. When i tell her to get off the table or stop hitting haley......... all i get is NOOOOOOOO! in the highest pitch you can imagine coming from a 19 month old. And you would think she would learn not to keep doing insane things because i am so consistent with her. But she will go back and do it again just as soon as by back is turned. Her newest idea is to push the chair to the drawers in the kitchen and dig through them. Its a good thing i can hear the chair being pushed because there are things in the drawers that could hurt her. She also loves to play in the trash. The other day she pulled out a chicken bag. I though i was going to die. I couldnt scrub her little hands enough. There was raw chicken juice all over. I understand that she is a toddler and this is what they do but i have to draw the line somewhere. I am up for any ideas on how to get her to stop doing dangerous things. please help.
In other frustrating news, jason and i got into a fight over the trash. Really... the trash. Its the only thing i ask him to do and it seems like I'm still the one to always take it out. So last night i started to take it out and it was so full that it wouldn't come out. After pulling for 5 minutes i was good and mad. It didn't help that jason was laying on the floor two feet away from me and he didn't even look to see what i was having a fit over. So i take the trash out and finish cleaning the kitchen. When he came to me about 20 minutes later asking if I'm ok .. I say " no i just fought with the trash for five minutes"
he says " why didn't you tell me"
Me-" You have seen it over flowing all day just as well as i have. i shouldn't have to tell you"
Jay- "i can see your having one of those nights so ill leave you alone."
Me-" no im not having "one of those nights" I'm just irritated that you didn't take the trash out."
So anyway , we didn't talk till bed time. And he says i need to be nice. I said i didn't like how he turned it around on me like i have no reason to be irritated. If it happend just once in a while i wouldn't get mad. I don't mind doing it if he isn't home or it he is busy but when he is playing a video game it just lights my fire. And the way maddy digs in the trash someone has to stay on top of it. He says i should just tell him. I could do that but I'm not his mother! Another thing that isn't on my happy list is my washing machine. It has bit the dust! I have caught it a couple time just running water. when it is supposed to be filling up and agitating , its just running. One day i started it and we went out for a while. when we got home its was running. we were gone for about 4 hours. My water bill has gone up so high. we went to Home depot and got a new one. A front loader energy and water saver. It wont be here till next Saturday but I'm so excited. Ok and last but not least by any means...... MY HAIR IS FALLING OUT!! The same thing happened after i had maddy. I'm sure its normal but it seems like way to much . and i can tell that its thinning. I eat healthy, i take vitamins, despite the last few days I'm not really stressed. I don't know what the deal is. i think i may need to see a doctor about it. I looked it up online and it said something about a sluggish thyroid. I don't know. well..... now that Ive taken you for a ride through negative town....say something funny, i need a smile.
