LIQUID LOVE aka MOTHER'S LITTLE HELPER

Our Mimi bless her little heart has the energy of 5 kids. She is still in the "Why" phase. She will ask a gazillion questions then when you tell her the answer she will ask the universal question "WHY?" Mama then answers with the universal answer, "Because I said so!" Therefore by the end of the week after everyone is in bed, mama settles down with her friend (a glass of wine) and unwinds.

I'M SINGING IN THE RAIN. . . . . .

Today is a rainy day so mama brought Mimi's boots and umbrella with her when she went to pick Mimi up from school. Of course as usual, Mimi did her rendition of "Singing In The Rain" all the way home. She loves splashing in the curbside puddles.

MEI MEI'S ROOM

Mei Mei's room is finally done!!! YIPPEE!!! The only thing left to do is put up the curtains which is something that needs to be done throughout the whole house.

MD VISIT

This morning Mimi had her 5 year old wellness exam and immunization shots. Everything was going so smoothly UNTIL the nurse brought in the injections, 4 shots in all. Being that our Mimi will most likely always be petite (40% range in both height-41.5 inches and weight-37lbs), the nurse gave all the shots in her thighs (2 for each thigh). Mimi wailed like a banshee. Mama had to hold her down tight and it nearly broke her heart to see her baby cry like that.

As soon as the visit was over, we headed right over to the Dairy Queen for a vanilla ice cream cone. Mimi soon felt much better.
