Our life in a list

• My parents are in France, and I'm so jealous. I also sent them with a rather large shopping list, and I'm feeling a bit guilty about that. But then I remembered that I forgot to ask for Madelines! What is wrong with me. I am a francophile I guess.
• Me + Tylenol with Codeine + not being able to eat = bad bad idea. I haven't felt so sick since I was pregnant with Aimee. And it renewed my zeal for staying un-pregnant. Not that it had waned.
• If you know of a way to get Katie to go poop in the potty, I will marry you. Well, I guess not marry, but I will be eternally grateful. That girl can pee in the potty all day with very few accidents, but she poops in her underwear nearly every single day, and I might go insane if I have to rinse out another pair of those disgusting things. Pull ups are too expensive, so she's back in diapers today, I couldn't do it. I must have had a revelation, because she just pooped in her diaper.
  
• Being a mom is about a billion times harder than I thought. I thought it would be so fun all the time. It is sometimes fun, but mostly hard for me. I am envious of people who have lots of kids, or even the same amount as me, and are completely sane. I am right on the edge.
• Aimee nods and says "uh huh!" when you figure out what she wants. It's so cute. She loves peek-a-boo too, its her favorite. She also gives hugs and kisses now, and I will not lie, I LOVE it.
  
• Katie loves to help me, and while it pains me to let her help sometimes I do it because she is just so proud of herself.
