Fun Times with a Toddler......

This week has been pretty standard with our usual play group meet-ups, music class, and beach time, but this week we started an art class. Let me tell you, homegirl had a blast! The instructor set up 6 different art stations and they could do whatever they would like, for as along as they would like. We only had one little cry session, because she didn't want to share the basket of colored rings. (This whole sharing thing is going to be the death of me! I thought teething would kill me, NOPE!). I don't mean so sound braggy or anything, but clearly she was the most gifted child in the class, hahaha. Just kidding...kind of :) I didn't bring my phone into class but here are a few of her masterpieces.....

I'm already running out of fridge space. Any suggestions for a cute way to display kids' artwork? 

Well, that was the extent of our exciting week, so I thought that I'd share a few 'funny' Madeleine stories. I may over share with some of these stories, but I'm being honest and sharing all these new things I'm learning while trying to raise a gremlin toddler. Enjoy!

*This week Madeleine has been taking off her diaper during naps and at night. One night, she took her diaper off and when I went in her room in the morning, she looks at the dirty diaper in the corner of her crib, and says, "Oops!" I immediately say, "Bye!" and walk out of her room (Uh, who wants to deal with that mess before your morning coffee or Spark?!? Not me!). She responds, "Have fun!"
Ummmm..... Did she just sass me?!?! I had no choice, but to laugh :)

*She is really into hiding right now. Her new favorite hiding spot is under Chili's bed. She will physically pull up Chili's bed and get under it.

*Painted my nails blue while she was napping, and when she woke up and noticed my nails she said, "Ewww." <insert side eye glare>

*While I was putting clothes away, she managed to get her hands on some old lip liner and eye liner and make "art" all over the wall. Her reply when I catch her, "Uh oh," points to her handy work, and says, "Momma, Fishy!" I guess she was drawing a fish

*I've been trying to ask her on a daily basis about our friends and family, and show her pictures, just so she won't forget them. When I ask her where people are, she tries to say, "home," but it comes out "Hoooeee!" HAHAHA. If you follow me on Instagram you'll know what I'm talking about (nicolejordan14).

*While trying to tell her not to pull Chili's ears, I let out a fart, (yes, I'm human....I pass gas!). She goes behind me and lifts the back of my dress and says, "Poop?" and then runs laughing. I can no longer fart in front of her! I know have to run to another room if gas is a brewing, she has shamed me!!!!

Enjoy your weekend folks!
