Neil is officially a surfer! Whoop whoop. Ok, well maybe not officially since he never stood up on the board, but he tried!!! I thought it would be a good idea to take the girls to the beach so we could play in the sand and watch him. The girls liked the part about going to the beach, but the had a better idea of giving me a work out instead.
I knew I was fighting a losing battle by keeping the girls out if the water, so I finally agreed to let them put their feet in. I think that lasted 2 waves before dj "fell" in. All 3 if us ended up soaked which was awesome since I did not have any clothes or towels!
This wad also the first time I let dj play without holding my hand. She was on her glory running Back and forth and back and forth. There were a few eaves that knocked her in her butt and them pummeled her, but she did nit care. She just laid there and took the beating and got back up when it was over! Dani was super mad that I wouldn't let her be a free swimming fish. Silly girl has no idea she is a baby!

pictures and day 3 on sleep
Djism: momma do you have big noobs? Momma do you have big boobs? Momma do you have big boobs? (she asked me at least 8 times while I ignored her question). Momma do you have big boobs? Poke poke poke (she literally was poking me). Yes dj i guess I do have big boobs. "daddy does not have big boobs he has little boobs and dj and dani have little boobs too!". That's your fun filled fact of the day!
We went and did dani's one year pictures today. Yes we are a little late, but what am I going to do about it now lol. I remember with dj ivthiught it had to be done in the day. Gasp I would never consider doing it a week early it late! Second baby enters the pic and I become that momma lol
Dj is for sure going to be a model. I was chasing dani down the hall and when I got back to the picture room, she is laying there and smiling the biggest and cutest smile ever! She kept looking at the camera and as long as pictures were being taken, she was in her glory! With her genes and current shrimp status, i i think she will be rhe furst suoer model under 6 feet tall lol
Dani has the looks to be a model to, but I don't think she will ever stay still enough to be one haha. The only thing she cared about today was escaping!!!! As soon as I set her down it was off to the races. I was sweaty and stinky and exhausted afterwards!
Book notes: dani only woke up three times last night!!!!! Fit the first tine ever, I did not see each hour on the clock whoop whoop

playing momma pops
The past few days we have been spending a lot of time in the bs guard (if that is what you want to call it). I usually try to wait for it to heat up, but it was 2 against one first thing this morning and I am one who knows when to walk away ha ha
The girls were playing and by playing I mean. Fighting iver the stroller. Finally dani sat in it and dj pushed her. The only problem was the wheels started to bend from the weight ha ha ( it was the doll stroller). I ended up getting my umbrella stroller outside and put dani in it. Dj pushed her forever just like momma pops does. She then sang to her just like momma pops does. I was cracking up. The best part was when dj would stop walking, dani would yell at her and point to keep going!!!
Sleep notes: danu took two really good naps and I did not nurse her down for the night!!!

Sleep baby sleep
We had a first: dani went to sleep without nursing!!!!!! Whoop whoop whoop! I will admit that I am usually against parenting books, but when I am desperate for sleep, I will do desperate things. I have read and studied two books. One in each end if the extreme I think lol. Anyway neither if them worked fir the one night I tried them ha ha but they did cause me much stress. I was/am doing so much wrong according to the books. I am not scheduled, structured, cold hearted enough fir one and I am not attached enough for the other! Aye aye aye
I have decided that I am going to write the next big selling sleep book. It is geared for middle of the road mommas who are not defined into a certain type if parenting type or those that defile being defined ha ha. Dj was my first( and still kind if is) my first experiment and Danica is my second. My book will teach moms how to get the best if both worlds. Yes mommas you can hold, rock, sleep with your baby for as long as you'd like and once you are ready for a change follow these easy steps and you'll be sleeping like a baba (ok I need to get back on track to the blog and stop working in my book. Especially since dani is still in the very early testing phase lol)
Djism: I was in the phone and dj kept trying to talk to me. I ignored her since it was an important call. She looks at Neil and says "I think momma is not listening to me. That is what I think"

copy cat
Honestly, days like today confirm that I made the right decision to be a stay home mom. We started our day bright and early and headed to the b-e-a-c-h. I used my roller blades for the first time whoop whoop!!!! No one was hurt during my blading either whoop whoop
Anyway, we played in the sand and came home fir naps and then spent the afternoon playing and playing and playing.
So today is what I call copy cat day. It started at the beach. Dani was dumping sand on herself and then threw a little. Next dj threw a lot right at dani. Then dani got a handful and dumped it on her own head. People walking by actually stopped to watch the show!
This afternoon dj hit her head on the table. I was sitting in the floor so I told her to come to me. The entire walk over she is crying so dramatically and then falls into my lap and lays her head on my chest. About 10steps behind her comes baby sis doing the same cry, pushes big Sis off my lap, falls on me and lays her head on my chest.
The best part of copy cat day was playing with dj's baby. She wrapped her up tight and then asked me if I would hold her while she went to get something from her car. I was rocking baby and telling her night night and shhhhhhing her. Dani comes over, takes baby and started loving on her too. Dj did nit want dani to have baby so she brought her back to me and asked if I would watch baby again. She needed to get something out of the car, but could not find the car. Dani gets her trouble maker look, comes and swipes baby and tajes off!
I spent more time in the floor today then I have in awhile. I have missed floor days!!

sleep lady training
I am having the worst day I have ever had since becoming a mom 2.5 years ago. Last night I put into action the sleep lady's sleep plan. I did nit intend to start it until next week, so tonight I fed her to sleep. When she woke up a little later in her crib, I thought now was as good of a time as any to start. Famous last words.
Danica cried fit one hour and ten minutes while u squatted next to the crib shhing her and patting the crib for her to lay down. It was horrible. She kept screaming and reaching out for me like mama I just need you to hold me and everything will be alright. She then woke up at 11, 12, 130,and them 345. The first three wake ups only lasted about 15 or 20 minutes. The last wake up lasted until 515. Dj was up at 530.
Dani woke up around 720. She was starving, but her normal happy smiling self. I stated to think that last night had no effect on her, and it was one if those things that is harder on the mama.
Well, I think I was wrong again. Here it is 330, and other than a quick nap in the car, I have not been able to get her to sleep. I have been projectile puked on 5 times, my bed is soaked , I need to do laundry, the room reeks, and I am dead tired.
I do not judge parents who let their little ones cry. We as moms know our babies the best and know what will and will not work. I think this crying it out is nit going to work for us at this time. I can't imagine having another day and night like this and the bok said it takes most babies two weeks! Dj has watched more tv today then she has all month. Unless I literally want her to turn into a couch potato. I better come up with a new game plan!!!
I think I would rather deal with the frequent wake ups then a sleepless night in a stinky room!

Dani use napkin & garden
Dani might be my giant oversized baby, but she us soooooooooooo dainty! When she eats she almost always takes the smallest bites. She us so good and then she chews and chews and chews. Quite different than her stuff everything I can in her mouth bug sister! Actually now that I think about it. I do not think dani has ate a single bug!!!! Dj was on her millionth bug by 13 months (yes, I will inform her boyfriends about this and I will lie to dani's and tell them the dame lol)
Tonight we went to VHS fir dinner and had a terrific dinner. For the most part everyone behaved. Dsni even used a napkin fir the first time!!!!!! Dj has not even had this first. Dani kept taking my napkin off my lap and then she would wipe her mouth. She thought she was so cool having a clean face!

jojo's house
Pops had an interview with the ATF for his gun license, so us girls got kicked out if the house. That was fine since we had so much to do for the baby shower. We went to auntie jo jos and played!!!!
We had to run to hobby lobby and target for some supplies. It was like 11 in the morning and 90 something freakin degrees out! Do you know what it feels like to load and unload two girls when it is that freaking hot outside? It's miserable!! While I pit one in their car seat, the other one was literally baking in the got sun fit like three minutes. I pretty sure that's how long it takes to boil an egg! I guess some good will come from our heart attack heat strike: the girls know what it feels like to cook inside an over, so I dint have to worry about them climbing into one anymore! (you know, people might really worry about that lol).
We had fun at jos house. The kids barely napped since the most we could keep quiet at once was two of if them. Ha

fly to abq
Aye aye aye. I booked a early flight so Neil could take us to the airport on his way to work. I had to wake both girls up and expected them to sleep on the plane. As always when I plan, I had to overly wild girls. Dani peed through her diaper covering us both in pee. Dj peed on the toliet but some how that got all over her. She also needed to poop but wouldn't so we spent the two hour flight smelling her farts!! Now that I think about it, no wonder no one slept!!!
Auntie j and uncle toad picked us up. The girls greeted them both with open arms. It is obvious how much the girls love them and they love the girls. Dj stayed with uncle toad and every time I looked over, she was giving him big il around the neck hugs for no reason. Dani knew auntie j was a sucker and wanted her to know what she was in fir, so the second she put her down, dani took off!!!!
Everyone was at momma pops house when we got there. It was awesome spending the entire day with everyone. The girls act like they are there everyday and did not have any stranger danger (well, dani does NOT like pops when he has his hat on!).
We found out today that jojo has a baby in her belly whoop whoop whoop
