Awesomeness

In case you didn't know she's four today!!  Notice the four fingers??  Does this mean she's a big girl and won't whine anymore?  Didn't think so!

Boo-ster seat!  Need I say more. 

The BIG Day

Tomorrow is a big day!  T turns 4!  I was thinking back to last year and remembered exactly what we did on her birthday....

Jim had class so he wasn't able to experience this lovely adventure.  T wanted to go to Chick-fil-a so off we went.  I told her if things went well at dinner that we could stop at Gigi's on the way home and get a cupcake.  We get inside, order, and get to the table with our food.  T got nuggets (as she usually does) and I got the #1.  She wanted some of my sandwich and, being the loving mother I am, I get my knife and place it to my sandwich to cut her a piece.  That's when it happened:  the tight fists, the red face, the flailing legs, the shoes flying off and, my favorite part, the bloodcurdling scream. I could not believe it...well, actually I could.  I gave her the mean mommy look...no response.  I squeezed her arm..."Ouch mommy, you're hurting me!"  I began packing up our stuff and said we were leaving.  I stopped.  I began unpacking our stuff saying, no we're not leaving.  This newly turned 3-year old was not going to win this!  I sat there eating my sandwich glaring at my precious angel.  I put the last bite of my sandwich in my mouth and that's when she said, "Can I have some of your sandwich?"  Ha!  Yeah, right!  We finished at Chick-fil-a and went straight home.  We walked in the door and she said, "Mommy, aren't we going to Gigi's?"  Arrggghhhh!  Let's hope for better things this year!!
