Ileigh is 20 Something Months old

Ileigh's favorite word AND activity is "baff". She says this for her bath, she says this when she goes out in the yard and see's her play pool, she says it when she goes to my mom's house (with a big pool), and today she said it at costco when she saw the rows of pool toys. Crazy kid! She is finally free of her fever. I still kept her home from school today though, since she doesn't take longer than an hour nap there. She still needs to rest, I think.
This morning she was throwing a storm of tantrums. She is really getting addicted to her paci, more than ever. She wanted it so bad, but I wanted her to take some tylenol first. She grabbed the syringe out of my hand, pushed the medicine out onto the floor, her blankie, and her new outfit. arghhh. I took her to the sink, she kicked screamed and threw her sippy cup that I tried to hand her. She goes all out on the kitchen floor too man. It's madness!
THe other day, Ileigh chewed through her bottle nipple at daycare. I kNOW it is way past time to get rid of the bottle. I just don't know where to begin. She is such an awesome sleeper, as long as she has her lovey items. I am so afraid to mess that up. The paci is going to be a feat too, I am afraid. I am definately going to take the bottle away first though.
I go in thursday to get my two basal cell carcinoma's removed. I am not looking forward to it. I am also so nervous about having lasik on the 12th.

Austin has been going through a lot of ugly preteen sass. He constantly talks back. For instance he will say, "Mom will you make my lunch, why don't you just do it right now (it's nighttime), Thanks MOm (before I reply)" and then he shuts his door in my face. Well, that was mild, it gets a lot worse. If I don't make his lunch, he will yell at me and say why didn't I do it, I have been up longer! On the bright side, he is generally really good with Ileigh. He likes to play with her and will even help on occasion!

Isn't this kid 11?? He should be making his own lunch. They told us at the lower elementary meeting that 6 to 9 -year olds should be helping to make, if not making, their own lunches.
