"Waiting Room Spectacular"

The classic "CHEESE" photo !!!

We had a great day today minus a major meltdown!! We started off the morning getting dressed and ready for our Stroller Walk with our playgroup. The great mom that I am, I let Isabella run around for a bit before started (BAD IDEA). Needless to say when it came time to leave she was having none of that period. We had screaming, kicking, back arching, foot stomping etc. THE WORKS !!! I finally was able to strap her in, and off we went. I'm SO LUCKY to have a great group of moms that a)completely understand a child meltdown and b) are able to completely ignore the fact my child is screaming and can still hold a complete rational conversation. She finally stopped crying and slept through the rest of the walk. I know this may come as a shock, but my little diva with major attitude, has a HUGE TEMPER and it is either her way or no way. AKA we lay down in the middle of the drive way if we don't want to get into the car etc. Ahhh the joys of the "Terrible Two's" !!!


We made it home in one piece ate a quick lunch and off to a doctor's appointment for mom. Same story second verse more insulin for mom during the day and a new bedtime insulin for mom at night. The best part of the appointment was the show Bella put on in the waiting room. Now as much temper as my child has, she has just as much personality with NO FEAR of people at all. She is such an attention hog, and the more the better in her book. Picture us alone in the waiting room...then a couple more showed up and a few more and a few more. Bella had to greet everyone that walked in, and then thought it was extremely funny to tell them all bye-bye instead of Hi. She personally went to each individual to give them a more personal greeting. She danced, she clapped, she spun, she laid down, and the more everyone laughed the bigger the performance was. Now picture a pregnant mom waddling around the waiting room after Bella, apologizing for my "outgoing" child and begging Bella to use her inside voice. I said "shhhh" quietly and she said "shhhh" as loud as possible. If that wasn't enough we closed the performance with her saying "rock-a-bye" to her baby which was followed by group AHHHHH, and as we finally walked into our appointment my child felt the need to flash everyone. Soooo do I still have any volunteers to watch my little princess when I go into labor?????

Bella came home and took a nice nap, I think she knew mom needed a rest.

We went for a family walk in her new car this evening. She LOVED every second of it !!!! Just take a look at the pics....
