Eating EVERYTHING in sight!!!

Apparently our little Peanut isn't so little any more. She eats at least 8 ounces of food every three hours and whines in between feedings because she wants to be munching on something all the time. So I dont have time to sit there and feed her one cheerio at a time so I just let her whine and apparently she will find other things to eat. Here is a list of things she has eaten in the last week.

1. Grout from the tile in the kitchen
2. Old goldfish from under the couch
3. Pieces of pinecones brought in from our shoes.
4. Pieces of string
5. Pieces of plastic
6. Dirt from the muddy shoes

Help what do I do? I think my daughter has Pica. (this is a DSM IV diagnosis where people have cravings to eat unedible things)

Worst luck Ever!!!

So everyone that knows that I have the worst luck ever is prepared for the story I am about to tell. Some people think I am kidding when I say I have this curse for weird things happening to me, but once you have heard all of my stories you would agree that I do. So we recently had a couple rent our house in Payson until the market gets better to sell it. They were even thinking about buying it because they liked it so much. I should have known that my luck would not allow that. So they called us last Monday and said "there has been a slight accident". I am thinking oh gosh they flooded the house or there is no house cause they burned it down. Oh no it wasn't that. There really was an accident in our back yard. They said that a car from the freeway crashed into the back yard and hit our shed. The girl was totally freaked out and said she was bawling all night. Not because of the crash, but because when they got out to the car the lady was frantically looking for her baby that was no longer in the car seat. They looked for two hours for the baby and the police finally let the lady call her husband and the baby was at home. Apparently when she got knocked out she thought her baby was with her cause the car seat was in the car. So needless to say I don't think they will be buying our house any time soon. By the way this is the house that we really didn't buy cause our realtor sold us the one across the street and really it was the one we have now.

Can't turn your back for a second

A couple days ago I was blow drying my hair and getting ready. Peanut was just crawling around on the ground. The phone rang so I set the blow dryer down to go answer the phone. When I turned around seriously 3 seconds later this is what she looked like. She is so fast now I can't do anything. That same day she was in our room and I went to the kitchen to get her a bottle. When I came out of the kitchen to go back down the hall, Peanut had made her way clear down the 25 foot hall to come find me.

Oregon Trip

Trevor and I went to Oregon to go see an Oregon Ducks Football game last weekend. It was a fun filled trip and very wet. We flew from Salt Lake City Portland. On the way there, Peanut was very cranky on take off and landing. We figured out that it was probably hurting her ears so on the way back we had two bottles ready to eat while the pressure was building.

When we got there, we stayed with my Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Bob. My parents weren't coming until the next day with the pack and play so Cheryl and Bob rescued us and Peanut slept in an old fashioned pack and play. She loved it. Then when grandma and grandpa came, they let her sleep with them in their room., so we really got a vacation then.

The next day we went to the beach. Trevor had never seen the Oregon coast before (neither had Peanut). She loved every minute of it. She ate the sand once and realized it wasn't a good idea. We also found 5 whole Sand dollars. I have only found 1 other in my whole life and I have been to the coast a ton.

On Saturday Trevor, my Dad and I went to the Oregon Ducks football game. It poured down rain most of the time. We had on rain coats and ponchos and still got soaked. I think my pants were an extra 20 pounds. It was a great game though and the Ducks won it right in the last minutes. Trevor had a great time and is already talking about next years game.

While we went to the game Peanut stayed home with grandma, Cheryl, Tiffany, and Gage the dog. Gage is Peanuts new friend. She really misses him. They spent most of the time together stealing each others toys to chew on.

We all had a great time and loved to see everyone
