Happy 34 months old!

Dear Little Bobina,

You turned 34 months old yesterday, and yes in only two more months you will be 3! Where does time go? We have had a ton of snow in the past couple weeks, but today it is raining and I wanted so badly to take you outside on the sled. Today is Christmas Eve and I type this while you are asleep on the coach. You have been sick the past couple weeks and this stubborn little sick bug just won't go away. You were so generous to give it to me and now today is my turn to be grumpy and unpredictable, we can also blame the PMS for this! We'll have that talk someday down the road!

You have been very trying lately. I can't decide if it's from being sick or because you will be turning 3 soon. Either way, I do have my days where I would like to climb into a hole and wait for you to be done with your whining and crying. I know this is something you need to go through and I'm having to really learn about my patients. I hope that you will have more patients than me.
You are completely potty trained now! You were going through some problems the past couple weeks, not sure what your deal was, but you just decided to pee your pants whenever possible...even if you were standing in the bathroom! Some suggested maybe you had a urinary tract infection and the weird thing is that after giving you cranberry juice....you have stopped! I'm just glad that your back on track. I was getting really tired of doing laundry EVERY NIGHT!

You're learning a lot at school. You have had several different moms come in and talk about where they are from, since you do go to such a diverse school. It is 2008 you know, we are all about diversity! We really enjoy Whitney Bloomfield and all the teachers there, it's a great place! I still miss seeing your face through out the day!

So we went and saw Santa at the mall two weeks ago and stood in line for two hours! You did great! You walked up proudly and jumped on his lap without any fear, shocked mommy and daddy for sure! You told him you want "muffins" for Christmas, and he gave a big smile. I'm sure he will make that delivery! We also went on the Polar Express (AKA: Star Clipper Dinner Train) and had hot coco and cookies while listening to a story and music. You really enjoy watching the video clips.

Christmas is tomorrow and I hope it brings a smile to your face, you are my little angle!

I love you!
Love,

Mommy

It's the Polar Express!

We had our big adventure on the Polar Express last night. AKA: THe Star Clipper Train out of Walled Lake. THe train will be moving to Traverse City after the new year and we thought it would be fun to take our Little Bobina on the train for an evening of fun. She had a nice time and only took a couple sips of her hot coco...hmmm. It definitly felt like we were going to the North Pole, it was like %15 below last night....SO COLD! Painfully cold! We had a great time and once again the request was MUFFINS! Wow Santa, you have your work cut out for you!

All I want for Christmas is my.......

It's been a trying week with all the things going on with the auto loan and the Southern Republicans that don't deserve their titles. Don't even get me started......does a Island exist where we can throw these guys onto? Even with this bad news this week, we have had some great news in our home. The man of our home is not finished with his masters and managed to score all A's in the past five years.....yes I married a very smart man....just look at who he married!

Anyway I have far more better things to write about than stupid ignorant politicians right now, and one of them being that we took our little Bobina to see Santa today and wow was it so cute! After waiting in line for over two hours...yes folks two hours....(good thing it's the mall and there were a lot of people, I love people watching, yes sick I know) we really got a taste for what our "almost" three year old wants badly for Christmas. Yes, I know...what could a three year old know about "wanting" something for Christmas. Well I'm here to tell you that she knows what she wants and what she wants are MUFFINS! I will be off to Hiller's on Christmas eve in hopes that they will have her favorite muffins. I think she got "Santa" shy and couldn't think of anything and just blurted out MUFFINS! Whatever the case she is so cute and really enjoyed her 30 second visit with him. When we got home she sang "Jingle Bells" and "Frosty the Snowman" and pretended to be Santa while making myself and her daddy sit on her lap (with out crushing her) to tell her that we also want MUFFINS!

It was a great day!
