It's been another one of those days...

We have had a day here at the Hinds house. Kalee is being a whiner and Peyton is trying my patience! Kalee just doesn't feel good. She is on this medicine that is making her poop 25 times a day and they are all runny. I know, a lot of info, but I am totally grossed out by it. I think I have said before that poop is one of those horrible parenting responsibilities. I checked her diaper today by pulling out the back to look down in there. It was full...up past her crack and I stuck my finger right in it. Good times. She is also getting more teeth, so I am sure that is contributing to the poop factor. It also makes her have a horribly runny nose. So she is annoyed by me constantly wiping it. But I just can't stand to have her eat her snot. It is another thing that totally grosses me out. Especially when she sneezes and it gushes out all over her face. YUCK!!
~~~~~~
Peyton is just seeing what she can get away with today. I am convinced that she gets this from her Dad. I have told him that I was always a good kid, then I met him. He was not always the good kid. (sorry Debbie...just a fact). So Karma is a bitch and any badness they have in them is all his fault. She keeps trying to lift Kalee up and throw her down. She pushes her to the floor and jumps on top of her. She grabs things out of her hands. I swear the girl has spent more time in time out today!
~~~~~~
They were playing Duck, Duck, Goose and hitting each other so hard on the heads. They thought is was hilarious... So I just let them go. Plus Kalee kept saying Goose, and it was really cute. Some fights are not worth taking on. I am learning that...pick your battles! Especially with the two of them. And especially when Peyton is smarter than me. The other day, I made mini cupcakes for Kate and Steve, and gave Peyton and Kalee one. Peyton asked for another one for Kalee. I told her she had had enough, she is only one, so she only needs one cupcake. Peyton thought for about 2 seconds and said then I need three, because I am three. I should have thought that through a little better before I said that one!
~~~~~~
Peyton was going to the bathroom today and this was our conversation:
P: "I can't go."
S: "Just sit there for awhile until you do."
P "The pee won't come out."
S: "Just be patient."
P: "My pee'er is broke. Something is wrong."
I could just listen to her talk all day. It's amazing the things that come out of her mouth. Don't worry, it wasn't broke...she went eventually.
~~~~~~
Kalee and I didn't mall walk today. I plan on doing it tomorrow. We have been slackers. I just didn't wake up in time this morning to get things done. I have sleeping issues and have been tired. So I just kept hitting the snooze button. I think it's acceptable to be lazy every now and then. Plus, I was on the ball the night before and gave Peyton a bath so she didn't have to get up and have one before school.
~~~~~~
Well, I think it's time to give out the medicine for the night and maybe put on a cartoon. We can just sit and have a nice quiet cuddle time. Then it's off to bed for the girls and off to the treadmill for me!

    What medicine is she on? Have you ever tried giving her probiotics? Depending on what medicine she is on, it may help. I agree poop is gross!!!

    She is on augmentin. What are probiotics? I've never heard of those. She has 4 more days of this stuff so I am hoping it will pass. She is really getting the double whammy with her teeth and the meds, I think. She has always had poop issues when she teeths. So actually Now that I think about it...maybe it isn't the meds at all and is really just the teeth.

    Thats exactly what medicine I figured she was on. It gives diarrhea to ALOT of kiddos. They sell them at most stores. I think one of the brands is called Dan Active. They are in the yogurt section. They actually taste really good. Try giving her that and see if it doesnt help her alittle bit.

    I will definately try it! I feel bad for her little butt! We need to go to the grocery store today anyway! Thanks Kari! I knew having a NP in the family would come in handy!

I Hurt

I hurt my back. It hurts bad. I can hardly nod my head without it hurting. I don't know what happened. But it hurts in case you didn't get that. I took some drugs and have been laying on a heating pad, so it is feeling a little better. I need to run, but just don't know if that will happen tonight. This puts a cramp in my training! (That's my sob story of the day.) ****** Last night Matt was telling me how he just puts Kalee in bed and she stays there and will fall asleep. So I let him show me. Well, he put her in and she started crying and crying. Then we heard her get up. She went into the bathroom...don't know what she did in there. But she came out and closed the door, then went back to bed. We then heard her yelling Blankies, Blankies!! Stuck, Stuck! So Matt went in and got her blankies unstuck and put her back down. She cried some more, then we saw her nightlight go out and heard her door slam shut. She then went into Peyton's room and had a chat with Peyt...

Day 2

Day 2 went just as well as day 1 of Preschool. It seems too good to be true! Oh well, I'll take it! Peyton went right in and did her "jobs" (putting away her bag, folder and picking her drink). Then she went to play with a puzzle and read a book. No tears, no clinging, AWESOME!! Kalee was upset again that she didn't get to stay. She kept saying I want to play with the tractor puzzle at school. So she and I spent the morning playing outside. It's so funny how happy she is once we get home. I think she loves not having the competition for the toys or the bossiness that is Peyton telling her how to play! She had every baby out and every stroller with them. Plus, her tricycle, 4 wheeler, shopping cart, firetruck... I have a new TV obsession...Melrose Place. Sad, but true. I watched it last night and am hooked. Can't wait for next week! There may be a problem though...I think it is at the same time that DWTS is going to be on. Speaking of DWTS...di...

Sunny Monday

We had a fun day today. After Peyton got upset that Daddy and Pop were going to the ball park without her...it was a boys day...we decided to have a girls day. She told me that on girls days, you read stories and sing songs. Well, we haven't done any of those things yet, but we did swim a little in the freezing cold big pool. Then the girls swam in their little pool. They both brought their babies to the pools, so they had fun. I put the solar cover on the pool as soon as I got them out of it!! It's amazing that they don't ever think the water is cold! Peyton sliding with her baby Kalee "swimming." She sat in this little bucket for about 10 minutes! We had lunch and the girls napped. Then we went to the mall play place. I gave them the option of the playground and feeding the ducks or the play place. Peyton wanted the play place. Really, I think they have more fun playing on the little cars that move when you put money in them. They don't even need them to...
