um..wow.

Yesterday Paige spazzed out completely. She was not having a good day as the skin over her top 2 teeth is stretched to the max and they are about to pop out any day now. It all started at Gymboree where she was just crying and whining and not wanting to participate in the circle time in the class. Normally she wanders off a bit, but will be ok if I have to reel 'er back in. Yesterday she had a huge meltdown in the middle of the circle in front of the whole class. Then (pushing my luck, I know) I decided to pick up a coffee on the way home from Second Cup. Going in the store was fine, but trying to leave?? I could not get her back in the car seat. She was too strong for me. She had her back arched, screaming her head off, and there was no way I could get her in there without stuffing her in there like some horrible person. If we had been in a hurry to go somewhere I guess that is what I would have had to do. Since we didn't have anywhere to go, we went back into Second Cup to have the coffee (and to keep her happy, a chocolate chip cookie). She eventually started crying in there too (well, pouty lip and little tiny cries compared to the car), and the lady that works there said, "I've never seen her cry her whole life!" Then on the way home she spazzed out as I tried to put her in the seat, but I was able to quickly stuff her in. She luckily fell asleep in the car and I was able to transfer her into her crib at home. So, not only were her teeth hurting, but she was super tired. The rest of the day she continued to cry and she got really sticky and sweaty and probably feverish. I hope these teeth come through soon, even though I love her 2 teeth smile.

On the weekend we went to the cottage for a nice visit with Aunt Robyn, Aunt Mary Jo, and cousin Evan. Our camera battery died in the car on the way up so we have no pictures.

Poor little thing doesn't know what's coming on Friday night when we get on a long 4 hour plane ride to Edmonton.

Oh--2 new words, or maybe 3.

wa wa=water (as opposed to waWA, which is flowers)
Uh oh=when she drops something, or sometimes is a preliminary uh oh, and then a drop. She says this a lot.

and "puh puh puh" (or something like it..not sure how to describe it) for Peek a boo

1 new game

Shape sorting! She is great with the circle, and she tries the other shapes but will usually give up if a shape doesn't fit in the first 2 holes that she tries.
