Becuase I Have Nothing Better to Talk About

Had my post pardom checkup today. The good news is I've lost 20 pounds since I had Lydia. The bad news is that was just about the same amount I lost 6 days after I gave birth. I guess all those Oreo and Girl Scout cookies haven't done much for my figure. Maybe I ought to try the All Ice Cream All Day diet. Think that might do the trick to lose that last 10 pounds?

Lydia has turned into a little scream machine again. Whether we're holding her or not. Jer has nicknamed her Grump'oppotamous.

To go along with the scream fest, she's had a serious case of the runs for 8 days now. To top that off, her butt is as bright as a neon light and has formed leetle bitty blisters. (I'll bet that's the reason for a scream fest) I have a sinking feeling she's allergic to not only dairy but soy too. Good thing her well baby is on Friday, I have no idea what to do with the kid other then whisper in her ear This is why people go crazy and shake their babies. She hasn't taken the hint.

This evening, as Kyra had a single bracelet around both wrists, I asked her what she was doing. She replied, "I'm wishing to our Lord Jesus and ask him if God sent me." Don't get me wrong, we're religious and are trying to teach her to pray and all, but we have never used this kind of wording around her and frankly, she's creeping me out.

We're moving to the Artic Tundra of the North next week. Jer is freaking out and thus annoying the crap out of me. I'm thinking of sending him and the animals early just so he'll get out of my hair. Surly the girls and I can manage all by our little lonesomes?

  1. Ahh- Maybe a milk protein allergy? Nutragimen formula(liquid gold nickname) is good stuff(and should be for 27 bucks an itty-bitty can). K grew out of it around 9 months. Hope Lydia does, too.

  2. I say let Kyra skip church a couple of Sundays and see if that helps. Is she still having visits from unknown spirits too? That language scares me too!
    Poor Lydia...child can't catch a break! I hope her well baby goes well and the doctors actually catch this allergy unlike Kyra's.

  3. I agree with Lisa...Nutramagin was the milk and honey that flowed from the land of calm that worked on Nevaeh when she was sensitive to both milk and soy. As for Kyra, I understand where it could be a little creepy but I think it is cute. I'm sure she is just taking the prayers that you are teaching her and expanding and mixing them together. I wouldn't let that bother you. It could be worse, she could think she came from the other side (satan's child...although with Lydia's screaming you might be wondering the same thing). J/K I hope you get it straightened out.
