Nothings

An old-ish woman who was with us in an elevator yesterday asked if Vivi is a boy or a girl.  After I told her, she informed me that she looks more like a boy.  When I repeated that I was quite sure that my child is a girl, she said, "Huh, isn't that funny...She really looks like a boy."  Um, okay weirdo.  

I forced my daughter to eat chicken nuggets for the first time.  I mean, there were tears involved.  Once she tried them, she was fine, but I'm pretty sure this means I'm the worst mother in the world.  

There may be nothing in the world as satisfying as picking the boogers out of my baby's nose.  It's like a game.  Yes!  Got that sucker!  Yet, for some reason, Madeline's runny nose has started to gross me out.  Perhaps it's because she no longer let's me pick them out for her...

There is a mouse in our living room hiding under the bookshelves. This made for a very stressful morning for me and Maddie.  Vivi didn't care.  Eric basically laughed at me from the safety of his work where there are no mice.  We hid at the library for hours.  Now I have traps set in just about every corner of our home because that sucker could be anywhere.  Meanwhile, I'm trying to act normal so I don't freak out my child.  Being an adult is hard. I'm gonna get you, Mickey!
