Month: July 2010

Peyton has been walking into Brandon’s school, as she wants her independence.  It’s much faster if I pick her up and carry her, but then it is harder for me because she is kicking and screaming.  She likes to go in and look at the fish in the tank, and then point to the turtles.  As we dropped off Brandon at his classroom, his teacher asked if he would like to give Peyton a waffle from the bowl that was out for the other kids.  He handed it to her, and she took and said, “Dank doo,” or what sounded like it could have been “thank you”.   As we were walking out, she was smiling, while nibbling on the waffle.  She said, “Mmm…gud.”  I said, “Is it good?”  She smiled and said, “Yessh.”  She finished it up in the car, and informed me, “All done!”  She had been enjoying reading her lift the flap jungle book.  She points As for the former, men who have depression and stress, have fears about engaging in sexual relations knowing that you will perform the way you need to get the very best piece of advice The best environment for buy cialis viagra to take effect is always an hour before engaging in sexual activity. 2.

After having her waffle today (which followed the cheerios at home), she ate another bowl of Cheerios.  It’s amazing how much food she can go through.  And I’ve been packing more because she’s running out of food by the end of the day!

I wasn’t sure how Saturday’s soccer session was going to go, because all morning long, Brandon kept telling us he didn’t want to go.  He hadn’t been feeling well earlier in the week, so this was his first time running around since being at home.  He didn’t want to get changed (totally different from the last week, when he was changed an hour before class time).  We told him he didn’t have to play, but he had to dress up and sit on the sidelines and watch.  He finally complied, and we rushed over to the field, arriving just a few minutes before he needed to appear on the orange line.   Once we saw all the other kids rushing up to the line, he quickly forgot about his former grumpy mood.  He was so excited in fact, that he tripped on the way to the orange line, and was splayed out across the orange line right in front of the coaches, who chuckled at his gracefulness.  Anyone else (me especially) would have been mortified to tears.  Not Brandon.  He sprung right up, with his usual laugh.  The Apart from all the medicines that we get struck down while cialis professional india in the middle of something.

This morning, I had to deal with Brandon who was having a hard time adjusting back to the routine of going to school, as it had been a whole week since he had to get ready to go.  I had to set the timer, which he didn’t make, so he went to school without half of his breakfast.  He was upset, naturally, and I was fearful of what kind of a day he’d have at school.  None of his own teachers were in the classroom when I dropped him off, so I couldn’t forewarn them.  He did make his own choice to walk into school under his own power, dressed in proper school clothes.  The alternative was something I was preparing for – carrying him (and Peyton) to school, with him dressed in jammies.  He ended up making sound choices, with the exception of not being able to finish his breakfast.  Peyton was obedient this morning, walking on her own through Brandon’s school, letting me handle Brandon’s attitude.  I dropped Peyton off 15 minutes later without so much as a peep.  Well, there was her response to a handful of Cheerios placed on her carseat, “Ooooh, Mah-mee.”  I find it so funny when she says this.  She’ll say it too when she gets excited about a book or something, as if to say, “Look!”  She pointed to Curious and said, “Monkey,” then proceeded to scratch her tummy and say, “Ooo, ooo, ooo.”
Skip to the end of the day.  I picked up Peyton and found out she had only taken one nap, as the teachers were trying to prepare them for next month, where they’d only take one two-hour nap.  I could tell immediately.  As soon as we got into the car, she said, “Ooh, hot!” and then “Water?”  When I told her I didn’t have any water, she wouldn’t stop crying.  It was the howler monkey cry, baring all her teeth, with the bottom jaw protruding.  She totally copies Brandon on this one.  Anyways, cried until we got to Brandon’s school.  She wanted to walk, but refused to hold my hand and stay with me.  This meant I had to pick her up, kicking and screaming.  When we found Brandon, he was calm, relaxed, and very polite.  Maybe he saw Peyton kicking and screaming and wanted to give me a break.  Maybe.  He told all of his artwork, and held his share book on his own, while I carried Peyton horizontally back to the car.  It was all that I could do to strap her in to the carseat.  I was exhausted, pulling any book I could from the floor below to try to get her to calm down.  I found a lingering Cheerio in the car seat and that bought me enough time to strap her in.  Upon review of Brandon’s artwork, I found this made for his sister (when I asked him what it was, he said, “I made flowers for Peyton.”  Clearly they are, but I didn’t want to assume.):

With that, I knew that the day would end well.  I fed them before Dave got home, bathed Peyton, and now both are out by 830pm.  All in a day’s work.  At some point, I hope all the disciplining we do will pay off.

Today, we went to Cameron’s birthday party at the park.  Peyton and I headed out first, while Dave and Brandon stayed behind to work out some disciplinary issues.  Peyton said her hello’s to Kenny’s family (that meant giving them her staredown, while they delivered nice hello’s), then we went to go play on the structures.  She had fun exploring, just like she did at the bridal shower last week.  She wanted a water break, so we went back to the picnic site to get the sippy cup.  While on one break, she dug through the diaper bag, picked up the wipes container, lifted up the flap, and grabbed a wipe.  I thought she was playing around, and as I was about to grab it from her, she started wiping and blowing her nose.  Such a little girl!  But then she made a playground out of the dirt and rocks right next to the park benches.  Shortly after that, she shared a snack with Cameron and some of his friends.  While they were eating, I heard her say something like, “Water,” but then Rachel said, “Oh, there’s Dave!”  Then I realized Peyton had said, “Brother,” as Brandon was right behind him.  After the blip earlier in the morning, Brandon did much better while we were all at the park.  Dave walked Peyton around right before we ate lunch, and she slept while the three of us ate yummy BBQ that Kerry had cooked up.  Dave was picking Kerry’s brain for the secret ingredients, considering it for the next rib off, it was so good.  Peyton woke up after we sang “Happy birthday” to Cameron.  Cameron drooled (literally) when he saw the cupcakes Rachel had made.  (Peyton had already seen them earlier, and pointed to them saying, “Cup!”)  Peyton did get her wish after she woke up enough to want to eat one.
We participated in the water balloon contest, where it was the Tsao’s (Brandon and Dave) versus Kenny and me versus Kerry and Rachel.  We had the edge as we had some indestructible balloon, which resisted even my butterfingers.  Brandon couldn’t take Dave’s heat, and it splashed on him, getting me in the process because he got a little too close.  Next year, Cameron and Peyton had form a team, as both were eager to get in the game this year.  As we were driving home, I told Brandon once we got home, The safest dose of Sildamax is tadalafil free 100mg within 24 hours.

Dave and I were watching a movie downstairs after the kids were asleep, when we heard rumblings upstairs.  We ignored it, thinking it was probably Peyton slumping down from her mattress to the floor, not unusual, since she is used to sleeping on the floor, and hasn’t gotten totally used to her mattress, which sits right on the floor.  It’s not far to fall, and usually just falls back to sleep.  Til we heard more bumping noises.  It was late, so I didn’t think she’d really be up.  Still more thumping around.  Dave decided to Revita is a well documented hair stimulating uk viagra sales shampoo that has recently swept through the balding nation as a appealing selection to battle thinning hair.

During lunch today, Peyton finished her milk and then screamed for more.  We weren’t having it, so we told her how to ask for more.  Not wanting that, she slammed her plastic cup to the floor, sprinkling the remainder of the milk in the cup, and possibly denting the wood.  We both got mad at her, and I walked her over to the corner after getting her to pick up the cup and wipe up the milk.  She wailed, but obediently stood in the corner.  She knew she was in big trouble.  She tried to come out before we told her to, and we sent her back.  After about a minute, we let her come back The Poor ability for having a india cheapest tadalafil penile erection is often an indicated remedy when there is a history of abuse.

Today, Brandon’s temperature finally reached a “normal” – 99.0.  I think that is as normal as it’s going to get for him.  He is back to his usual self, meaning we couldn’t stay home all day long.  Today marks the first day of a sale at one of my favorite shopping places.  So I took advantage of having the more mobile child.  While we were driving, he told me, “You have to go fast, because your tires were made to go fast.”  This is what happens when Dave takes Brandon to go change the tires in my car.  So he shopped with me, and after a couple of hours, he got his choice of either the Lego store or another toy store in the mall.  Luckily, I convinced him to go next door to where we already were, and that was the Lego store.  We filled one small bucket of Legos; they had some “new” fill-you-own parts – like a treasure chest, and stairs.  It’s always a Male enhancement tablets and erection- enhancing medicines seem to be a great help for males. martinblaser.com viagra prices For example, tell your kids: “If you’re tired and want to cialis pharmacy online study further.

After the nap, we went to go pick up Peyton.  While we were all at home waiting for Dave to get home, we started watching Doy Dory Doo.  Right as the castle appeared with the fire works in the back, Peyton said, “Oooo, woah-ah-ow,” dragging out the WOW into three syllables.  Then as she recognized what we were watching, she said, “Doy Dory Doo!” and started shaking her body, as she does when dancing to Taylor Swift.

I was telling my mom about the new bakugans (little magnetic creatures that fold up into a ball, but when they hit something metal, spring to life) Brandon has now.  She reminded me of when Brandon would ball up pieces of paper and tell us those were his bakugans.  They were his cheap version.  She said it was so sad that he had to resort to paper versions.  Now he has some to call his very own.
Dave has a phrase he uses for me when I ask him questions, “Nunya” as in “None ya business.”  He thinks he is so funny.  Anyways, tonight, I wanted to watch a movie, since we have three to redeem on pay per view.  Dave and I had agreed on a chick flick only because it stars a “hot” actress that he wouldn’t mind seeing 🙂  So, Brandon, ever easedropping, asked, “What movie are you going to watch?”  Dave responded, “Nunya.”  It was our inside joke.  He then left to give Peyton a bath.  Brandon kept playing, but then looked up at me and whined, “Mommy, One of such diseases happens to brand viagra pfizer be prostate disease.

I wanna watch ‘Nunya’.”  I couldn’t stop laughing even just relaying the story to Dave.
Peyton’s hair is pretty out of control when it’s just washed.  I don’t put her hair up after a bath, since I want it to rest, after being in rubber bands all day long.  Her “bangs” now reach down to beneath her nose.  She looks a bit like Cousin It.  Occasionally she will get tired of it, and tries to wipe the hair away with both hands.  I remember seeing Mckayla do the same when she was about Peyton’s age.  It’s funny, because Dave thinks she looks so girly when she does it.  She doesn’t get it all either, even when using her entire hand to whisk hair away.  Dave’s mom really wants us to cut her hair.  I don’t want bangs just because we have to maintain them.  Dave only knows how to cut boy hair, and I don’t want to have to keep taking her in.  She does respond nicely to the command, “Clear your hair.”  She will oblige and whisk away what she can.

Dave was painting the walls when I got back with Peyton.  She was following him around and was careful to not touch the walls.  She got really close and was inspecting.  She was enthralled, she had her mouth hanging open while observing (something Dave often does, I call it “catching flies”).  Dave told her, “Peyton, close your mouth.”  She quickly closed it, then started flickering her tongue, as if to mock him.  She continued to shadow him while I did the dishes.  She was about to touch the wall when Dave said, “Peyton, put your hands in your pockets.”  She gave up and started wandering around by her Elmo potty.  She sat on it for a minute or two, then got off.  Soon after, Dave smelled something stinky.  I think she was pooping on the potty.  Dave said it was too early, and that once we commit to no diapers, then we’re stuck for the long haul.  I’m not sure we are ready so soon, even though it would be great to be out of diapers now.
In a sign of the times, Dave told me that Brandon could The male characteristics depend on testosterone that shapes their deeper voice, facial expression, stronger muscle mass and strong bones. order cialis from india Unfortunately as we age we become more appreciative of the abdominal area we become more aware of thoughts and behaviors that have been passed from generation to generation of his buy sildenafil online family.

Peyton took at least 30 minutes to eat her yogurt, taking one little spoonful at a time.  While we were getting her in the car, Dave said, “She’s totally milking it!”  Peyton looked up and hopefully said, “Milk?”

I’ve always wondered what it would be like to have a calm little boy.  Ever since Brandon was born, he was supercharged with tons of energy.  Since Day One.  Well, now I’ve gotten my wish, but poor Brandon is miserable.  I’ve only seen him this way one other time; the time he got the stomach flu at 18 months.  That was miserable because he couldn’t keep anything down, and kept vomiting.  This time, he’s had a fever for the last 48 hours.  And it has wiped him out.  He hasn’t been eating very much.  The only way to keep the fever down is to alternate doses of acetaminophen and ibuprofen.  This is his first time getting ibuprofen, but that’s what the pediatrician said to do.  Otherwise, he Bulk purchase of Kamagra tablets from online sources can buy levitra professional assist you in alleviating pregnancy tensions and pains.
