I'm a What!?!

Anyone who has had any interaction with a two year old knows that sometimes they struggle with finding the right words to express themselves. Their vocabulary is limited so they use what they know. Recently, I bought a 6 lb bag of gummy bears at Costco. They are a special treat for the kids (and me and John). The other day when TJ got mad at me for some reason, he called me a "Dummy Bear". I know I should have said something about being nice to mommy and not saying mean words, but I was taken so by surprise that I couldn't. I know he loves gummy bears, so maybe that's his way of expressing that he loves me, but that I wasn't living up to his expectations at the moment. Kind of like a dud gummy bear, or a "Dummy Bear".

Update

I'm sorry that I've been absent in the blogging world lately. The first couple of months of pregnancy are always the hardest for me. I'm finally on to my second trimester where I can re-emerge into the land of the living. Everything is going well with our family. I've updated our photos with our family pics we took in September.

We are busy preparing for the holidays. I don't have much of my Christmas shopping done because I've been feeling so lousy, and now I'm anxious to get it all done. We were in St. George visiting family on Black Friday, so I didn't venture out. There wasn't anything that had me drooling, so I chose to sleep in. We had 3 Thanksgiving feasts this holiday, as we traveled to St. George, Las Vegas, and Delta. I would just ignore the scale for the next couple of weeks, but unfortunately I have to go to Dr. appointments every four weeks where they make you get on the scale. I guess I'll just blame it on the baby growing inside me!!
