We're So Far Behind We Thought We Were First!




Only 4 posts this month?!  That's terrible!  We're so far behind, we thought we were first (Yep!  We borrowed that line from Mommy's cousin's blog which has been discontinued, so now it's fair game!)  We are getting ready to go on our cottage vacation in a couple days so we will be WAY out of commission (like way, way, waaaaay...)  Hard to believe when we get back we will only be one week away from preschool (eek!) and almost to college football season (yes! yes!  YES!!)  This summer has sure gone fast but it's been a great one so far.
Anna, my sweet, psycho Anna is really coming into herself.  She is such a sass!  And it's funny despite the fact that it's really borderline frightening at times.  Mommy tries to grab the camera to record those Anna moments but she knows it's coming and stops what she's doing and says, "Lemme see!"  Ham.  She's also forming whole, complete (though mostly indecipherable) sentences.  It's awesome, she's not even 2 and a half yet!  And the girl really knows what she wants and who she is (I'M ANNA!)  Mommy always says no one will ever mess with me because they'll have to go through Anna, and HOW.  Sometimes not even Mommy and Daddy want to mess with Anna.
That's right, that sweet Angel baby you see...  "ME DO IT!  ME DO IT!!  ME DO IT!!!"  Aaah...the terrible two's.  And then the "Tantrum Threes."  The "Fiendish Fours"...the "Fucking Teenage Years."  (Had to!  Had to put that one in there, courtesy of Duda, still makes Mommy laugh out loud).  The things we have to look forward to.  Mommy is pretty lucky that Boots (the fetus in utero formerly known as Colors is now referred to as Boots) lucky Boots is a boy.  Because by the time we all three get to high school and it's Boots' turn, Mommy and Daddy aren't going to give a shit what he does or when he comes home or any of that and they both think they're probably better off that he's a boy.
Anyway, Mommy sure does digress but that's what happens when you're six months pregnant with your third kid and it's 130 degrees outside with 217% humidity.  You tend to forget what you're talking about...you also tend to react violently to seemingly innocuous questions such as, "How are you feeling?" (Let me tell you how Mommy is REALLY FEELING - no, wait, on second thought, guess!)
So anyway July flew by and here we are, almost to August, almost time for vacation, getting closer and closer to adding another mouth to feed (and butt to clean) and life is good.  Dammit.  Life is GREAT.
Love,
Lilly, Anna and Hormonal Mommy

The video youtube suggested when this ended is called "Anna's Death Fridge: Methadone and Slim Fast." Oh, Anna Nicole, you're so outrageous!
