what is in a name?

We have been working with Rigby on her name. You can ask her, her name and she will say Rigby Jai Scott. Mommy's name is Mommy Scott and daddy's name is Daddy Scott and Adler's name is Adler 'Uncle Cole' Scott. ha ha ha ha ha. One time we were working on saying Nicole and she was butchering it and i told her to break it down 'nick' and 'Cole' then gave a reference 'Cole' like Uncle Cole well obviously that is what she remembered. So Adler is now called Adler 'Uncle Cole' Scott in the family line up.

bouncing off the walls

I am not sure if it was the Trix or just her state of mind for the day but Adler was wound up. yes, she did have other healthy breakfast options along with the handful of dry cereal, like cheese, yogurt, and fruit. she was running and screaming and laughing and into everything this morning. she has that zest for life that is only capable in small children.

no doc

So Adler spent the day with mam-maw besides the fact that she wanted to sleep away most the afternoon there was no other adverse side effects of the rash. she never lost her appetite or never spiked a fever so she just got a one on one play date with grandma. today she is back at school. she does still have a little rash on her arm/leg.

headed to the poor house

Looks like Adler is going to put us in the poor house with her multiple medical visits. OMG. This morning i noticed a fine slightly pink rash on the inside of her leg. i just got a call from the school and that rash seems to have somehow spread to her arms and the top of her head. luckily that mam-maw got in last night so she can watch Adler closely and see if it gets any better/worse in the next hour or so and we will then determine if she needs to go to the doc. ugh.

self praise

Adler must hear she is a 'good girl' a lot. She will do something...any thing and if the tasks is done well she will say "good girl." like if she picks up toys and puts them back in the bin, sometimes she will stop and say "good girl." if she puts her juice glass on the table she will again stop and say "good girl." this chick is too funny!

noisey eater

When trying to get Alder to eat we make sounds like "nom-nom-nom" or "hmmmmm." the funniest part is that Alder will mimic those sounds while eating and have no idea why.

rise and shine

since her eye issue Adler has been waking early. 5 to 5:30a is what i mean by early. that is more than an hour earlier than i would possibly need her up. i cant let her fuss it out and try to go back to sleep because she is normally really hungry and mommy has been spoiling her with a bottle (now just cow milk-formula gone.) more importantly 9 out of 10 times she has a diaper full of pee and poop and who in the hell would want to sit in that. i get the idea of wanting that off my rump as soon as possible. so we get up. it is our alone time. we normally snuggle and cuddle and tickle and play. i cant say it a bad way to start the day.
