Notables

Ok, it's the Mom here - guest posting on the girls' blog. I know, kind of unheard of, eh? But I wanted to write down a couple of notable things that you might find interesting / humorous.

Conversation between Mom and E1 while putting birthdays on a calendar:
Mom: You can put Grandma Pollard's birthday on there - it's July 26th.
E1: What is her first name?
Mom: Um, you don't write down her first name. You can put "Gma P" if you want to shorten it.
E1: Really, what is her first name?
Mom: Donetta
E1: Mom, when I was a baby, why didn't you name me something as beautiful as Grandma Pollard's first name?
Mom: You don't like your name?
E1: (with a gleam in her eye) Yes, but it isn't as fancy as Donetta.



If you think about it, send up a little prayer for E2. It seems as if she has had a reaction to the MMR vaccination she received on Monday and has hives. This is day #2 and unfortunately, they say it can last up to 6 weeks.

E2 received an alphabet puzzle for her birthday. She knows her letters already, but she struggled with putting them back in the right place. There is a picture underneath, but she didn't really know what the pictures were (like "vine" for "V"). But, with the encouragment and help of her big Sissy - she is now an expert (well, with all except the "A" which is missing). The funny thing to note is that she has a big temptation to put the letters in her mouth. Now, I don't necessarily catch her chewing on them - but I find them in the sink (which is I have her put any toy she puts in her mouth so that I can wash them).
