I have a tendency to shower with the bathroom door open when I'm home alone at night with the girls. It gives me a better chance of hearing them if they need anything after I've put them to bed. Dev was already sound asleep and K was reading in bed to her students (her stuffed animals) when I went in. The fireworks were going off and I heard K whimper a little. I let her know that it was only fireworks and that I would never let them hurt her. K asked what colors they were. I told her that I didn't know because my contacts/glasses weren't in/on and my vision wasn't so hot. K ran into the hallway to the bathroom and said, "Mom. Can you see me now?" Me, "Yes, K. I can see you. You are blurry, though." K, *rolls eyes*, "Put your contacts in, Mom. They are in the cabinet." I love that my kids have so much faith in me...
Poor Dev has a bump on her noggin now. She was excited during a game of hide&seek/peek-a-boo... Essentially, I stand in the hallway outside of our bedroom and she runs into our bedroom and runs next to our bed and "hides" while I walk in and "find" her. Well, in the 10 seconds that I waited before following her in to "find" her, she managed to try to climb up the bed, slip, and bump her head on the bed frame. Now that I think about it, I don't necessarily mind that the kids don't have much faith in me! I'm waiting to receive my "Worst Mother of The Year" award in the mail. I watched her like a hawk for the next 3.5 hours to make sure she was alert, not vomiting, etc. This is one of those instances in which I am happy that my kids have hard heads.
Dev is also teething, I think, by how much she has been gnawing on things. Her canines are trying to come out and she has been gnawing on anything that she can get in her cute little chubby hands. She'll walk around with stuffed animals in her mouth - and she looks so much like a puppy! Maybe if she didn't growl...
I love how my girls are so different yet both so amazing. I have the most wonderful, gorgeous, and SMART kids ever! <3
