Mamamamamamamama….
Another dreary rainy day, ok, so it’s the first day like this, but it’s going to last all of next week! And the weather may have been great, but i was feeling downright aweful until yesterday morning. I feel better than ever today and don’t know where I’ve found this well of patience, but I have. My girl is being testy, but it’s ok
She’s also been playing the “mamamama” card a lot. She understands that that is what I am called and that it helps get my attention. Except now, I’d like her to understand that there are other words to say when you WANT something. But no, I’ll be doing something, she’ll say “mamamamama” in this very soft sweet voice knowing full well that I’ll respond and then expects me to just KNOW what it is she wants. Most breakfast this turns into crying and hysterics because she simply wants something NOW and is frustrated that she can’t say it. She’s been trying VERY hard though, she started saying “papa” again and actually said it to my husbands PJ’s yesterday, so she understands the concept that things belong to him, but the words just aren’t coming out. She doesn’t like imitating sounds, except animal sounds. She can Meow with the best of them
I think she now has 5 words, mama, papa, non, boo and bon. Weird how she’ll pick up on the words I may say most, but won’t try to say the words she needs to say to be understood. Granted she’s been using some sign language for the rest of her needs (diaper change, milk, water, hungry, finished, more/again, no, yes and pointing)
In other news, I got a FAB-U-LOUS massage yesterday! Oh, this massage therapist is the BEST! Of course, now I’m all sore and my neck hurts like I’ve been beating myself with a stick, but I feel a LOT less tense! I was surprised that a lot of things hurt so much while he was massaging, like my forearms and legs OUCH! And though my back was my problem area before, it barely registered?! Of course, the sad part is, I don’t get to go very often, he stopped working for the gym I used to go to, which would be 20 min from here. He now works downtown, but at a SHOCKING price and said that he does go to homes, but that that is also more pricey than it’s worth. SO, I drove the 45 minutes out to his place. Very quaint. Met his wife, which I’ve heard SO much about. That and his 2 boys, both my age, so weird, in a good way. He likes to talk a lot during the massage and, well, to tell the truth, I encourage it myself! lol. He’d probably stop if I told him to, but he just has so many funny stories to tell.
No new layouts right now, I’ve got another Announcement card to make for another friend, soon, VERY soon. Since I skipped gym last night in favor of a good rub, I’m going to head on over there tonight, since this weekend is already pretty packed. Hopefully I’ll find some time to open up Photoshop before Monday
Oh, here’s my girl, saying mamamama with her arms outstretched. Code word: Pick me up mama! She’s been toting her dog just about everywhere too, poor thing isn’t going to have ears or a tail left, she’s been biting, gnawing and pulling on them so hard! SO happy she’s into it instead of into biting me!
