I am trying to remember how sweet my Delana was when she was a baby. I am trying to remind myself of the good ol' days! She is a big handful. Her fav thing to do these days is to take her bottoms off and her diaper and walk around "commando" Not so fun when you get her up from nap and have to hose down everything in the room. Or when you have to search the house for her diaper because you have no idea which room she did this in. Yesterday I found her in the bathroom with a whole roll of unraveled toilet paper and 1000 cue tips thrown everywhere. I tried taking a picture of coarse, but she would not sit still long enough. Okay, seriously, just this very second as I am typing this she just walked up to me with a head full of sunscreen....and it is only 8:30am!!! Urghhh!!!! This little girl!!! I wish a grandma lived close so I could farm her out for a few days.
Then there is the whole bully issue we have with her. She is a big BULLY! We knew she liked to fight with her sister and all the other kids in the house that I tend to. She likes to wrestle and play rough. But I did not know the whole extent of it until her first week in nursery at church. You see at our church children can not go to nursery during Sunday School until they turn 18 months old. So parents start counting down the day and months until their little ones can be farmed out to the nursery. So I was so excited two months ago. I took my little angel in and when I picked her up I was so glad to hear from the nursery worker that she was one of the best behaved children. I was such a proud mother. So I dropped her off the 2nd week and I had to go get her half way through it because she kept beating everyone up. She would get down from her chair during snack time run up to another kid, push all of their snack on the floor, hit them in the head and then run off to the next victim. She would do all of this while laughing. But this is not what got her kicked out. Before this they were playing with toys and she found this push toy that she liked, not for pushing but for picking up and swinging in the air to see how many other little kids she could hit. But both of these things are not the reason I pulled her out of nursery for the day. During singing time she went around pushing everyone and tried to take their place on the singing rug. She wanted it all to herself. So I took her out. We keep trying and we know that it is a good day when they say "she only beat up two kids today." So I apologize to all of the parents in there. We are trying to teach "Soft" and "love" But the problem is she hits and then thinks it is okay becuase she follows it up with a hug. HELP! Grandma come get her!

Strider is about to turn 18 months, so I took him in for an hour on Sunday, and we just hung out. Maverick is in there, and I saw him punch a girl in the shoulder, so I (instinctivly) punched him in the shoulder. You should have seen the nursery leader's face. I was so humiliated. I don't normally do that, but I just didn't want him thinking it was okay to hit, especially at church!
