Maddie-isms

Maddie has been cracking me up lately. She has come up with the funnies stuff.

Here are a few...

• It's not a toot if it doesn't stink.
• I(Maddie) tooted and it smells like Hot Dogs.
• M-"Daddy, what is Jakey doing" D- "he's flying" M- "Like a G-6?" (a fave song of hers at the moment)
• I like the Abouna(Priest at church) drink. (Communion wine- she's liking it early)
• She thinks all burps are caused by Diet Coke (note- she does not drink diet coke)
• She had a cavity filled (yes, I know she is only 3. but we floss and brush all the time) and wanted to know if she would always get to wear the mask when she went to the dentist. It's the mask for laughing gas.

She has also developed quiet a temper and turns into the devil. When I get the chance, I'll down load the video. She was tired that she pitched a fit for no reason and during this time, I swear her eyes popped out of her head.

Whine vs. Wine

Whine:

Pierces my ears
Gets on my nerves
Cost nothing
Usually asking you for things
Scares your friends away
Awful at the first sound
Hugs, kisses and loves you in the morning

Wine:

Numbs my ears
Calms my nerves
You have to leave the house to purchase
You are asking for another glass
Makes friends come around
Good until the last drop
Leaves you with a bad hangover


The last reason for whine makes all whine worth it.

Moving and Shaking

9 and 1/2 months into his sweet life- he has decided to crawl. All little cracks Jakey can squeeze into- have now been blocked. (yesterday, i couldn't find him. he had crawled under the end table and squeezed his little buns behind the coach)

Speaking of little buns- Jake is on the weight gain plan. Crazy right? My once 60% chunker is now 6% on the curve. He eats like a pig, nurses like a champ and eats anything you pick in sight. Where is it going? I guess to my thighs.

Wee-Wee Still Jake's friend and grabs it every change he gets. I guess that is a boy for you. At least the peeing in Mommy's face has ceased.

DaDa- I think Jake thinks that is my name. He will look at me and say, "DaDa" and then looks and Daniel and says nothing. HA!

Helmet update- 4 weeks left. Yea. He now wears it 14 hours a day. I will miss his helmet when he is done. All the thrown toys it has protected him from.

Jake is still my sweetie and non-problem child. I heart him and he makes me mush.

Oh Justin

So Maddie likes Justin Bieber and is in the closet about it.

Now if you ask her, she will tell you "No, I no like Justin Bieber" . She will only admit it to me she like him and will sing his songs in my presence.

It's like when we all had a crush on Zac Efron and realized the age thing was yucky and told no one about our secret crush.

For Christmas Maddie got this..................

She got embarrassed and once again said

"I no like it" But as soon as Kris and Abbey(who got her the gift) left the house, she was in the playroom dancing and singing to it.

Oh, Justin!

I need more time to blog again

Things have been crazy in the Bessada house since the last time I blogged.

Where to begin..............

Little Jake is 8 months old. He still won't roll- but enjoys rocking on his knees. He is also a great eater- nurses like a champ and eats anything he can put in his mouth. 6 weeks into his helmet wearing. He's doing great and hopefully only has 6 more weeks left. The helmet is a not only great for head reshaping, but great protection from- knocking his head on the floor, flying objects thrown, and Maddie. But, let me tell you----Jake's head smells like feet when the helmet is off.

Cute Jakey story-
Jake had his first playdate today with his friends. Two little girls- 5 months and 9 months and really cute. An hour into playing and eating snacks, Jake wants to nurse, then fell asleep for the rest of his playdate until the girls had to leave.

Now on to Maddie. Just saying Maddie should be enough. But she is such a big girl. Loves school and always come home with an art project or new song to sing. Beginning to recognize her letter and numbers. Super excited about Christmas. She has asked Santa for 3 things- Squinkies, Ice Cream Play-Doh and a Camera. We'll see what Santa brings.

Cute Maddie story- Some people do Elf on a Shelf. Well, he is scary as hell to me. But Santa is always watching Maddie in our house. And I am probably going to hell for this one day- but we told Maddie that the green light in the smoke detectors where cameras straight to Santa. When she does something good or bad she will go talk to it. (and yes, I have this on camera)So cute!

Jake's Friend

At 6 1/2 months old, Jake discovered he has a new friend. His penis. Yesterday during bath time, I turned around to look at Maddie. Only to turn back around to see Jake with a goofy, smiling look on his face and his hand down below. He kept squishing and playing and smiling. (Thank God the kid didn't pee on me, which he likes to only do with Mommy)
And this morning, I left to get Maddie out of bed, only to come back Jake trying to find his wee-wee once again (too bad for him, this time he had on clothes).

I think I am in for it with this one.

1/2 a Year

My sweet, sweet, cuddly little snookems has been in our lives for 6 months today. (I must say- this kid makes me complete mush.)

Jake Daniel is the sweetest thing ever and it is completely fine with me if he turns into a Momma Boy. (Sorry Maddie, you were a great baby too- but you cried more than Jake)

Stuff about Jake:

• still not rolling over. I think his legs are too chubby to carry him to the other side.
• can almost sit unattended for more than 45 seconds.
• doesn't like to eat breakfast, but will tear up some lunch and dinner. He loves his veggies.
• loves to nurse. Starts off sweet, then turns violent when he pulls my hair and smiles.
• love some Jakey smiles. They make my heart melt.
• Maddie- he stops what ever he is doing when she walks into the room to see what she is doing.
• laughs- he is still my funny boy. Laughs at everything.
• talks- he will babble up a storm if Maddie not around (he can't get two words in with her in the room) and you just talk to him.
• already knows that gas is funny. (must be a male thing) He toots and then laughs.
• falls asleep when a Disney song comes on.
