Opening Day

Starts Today!!!!!!!!!!!

Ticked off

I am so ticked off right now I need to get it out.

This morning when I took Big Cubby to school it was wet out from last night's rain and it was drizzle this morning. There is a door to his classroom where kids come in from outside so they line up there when the bell rings.

We walk up and two boys from his class are smacking each other with backpacks. A mother steps in and tells them to put their backpacks down. Big Cubby goes up and gets in line. This woman tells him to put his backpack on the ground because I guess she believes he will use it as a weapon. He comes running back to me and I tell him to pick up his backpack because the ground is wet and the bell is going to ring.

He goes back to get it and this woman stops him and tells him I told you to put your backpack down. I hear Big Cubby say something like the ground is wet and he points to me. She tells him then he better put it on his back.

At this time I am ticked off at this woman. I call Big Cubby over and she looks up. I give her this look that she better not be messing with my kid. I tell Big Cubby to stand by me until the bell rings.

I did not say anything to her because there were children around but I wanted to give her a few choice words.

I understand that the boys before us were being dangerous. I would have said something to them as well and have on different occasions when play turned in to possible harming but Big Cubby did not do anything to warrant her saying something. She just decided to lord over all the kids. I have told kids to stop what they were doing and get in line because the bell was going to ring but only to the ones that were doing something dangerous not every kid in line.

Here is the kicker, her kid is not even in Big Cubby's class. Her kid is in the other Kindergarten class and goes in a different door.

It really ticked me off. I take care of my child. I make sure he gets into class. I discipline him when he is not behaving.

I fumed all the way home about it. I called my husband to tell him about it and just get it out.

I am wrong to feel this way? I understand if he was doing something dangerous and I didn't see it. This is not that case.

Tooth Fairy

Last week Hubby pulled Big Cubby's loose tooth. This is his first tooth to come out. It had started to come loose a week before that. By the time Hubby pulled the tooth it was practically coming out. Big Cubby was scared at first. He asked me if he was going to die. After I told him that this was part of growing up and that he will get grown up teeth and that he was not going to die, he became excited.

The tooth fairy came to visit and left a dollar. Big Cubby immediately wanted to put it in his piggy bank.

He thinks it is cool now that he has a hole in his mouth. Boys.

So behind

8 months old

I am so behind with Ladybug updates so here are the 6 month, 7 month and 8 month update all rolled into one.

Ladybug you have flourished in the last three months.

You can roll over and stay sitting up by yourself.

You can from your belly push yourself backwards. You are really trying to get up on your knees and crawl.

You can say Mama, Dada, Lala, Baba.

You like to make noises with your lips and tongue. Like making the rasberry sound.

You can clap your hands.

You have two teeth now.

You like watching your brothers play.

You still get up a few times a night.

You are eating baby food now. You like everything but baby yogurt. That made you gag.

You are very smilely and happy.

You are pretty good when you go to a restuarant or shopping.

You like to smile at everybody we see.

When you do get upset you let us know with a very loud squeal.

You make lots of noises that makes Daddy question are you really a girl. You rival your brothers sometimes.

I might be missing something because you are growing and developing so fast I can hardly keep up.

You are a beautiful light in our family that makes us smile no matter what is going on.

We love you Ladybug.
