Quote from Molly using the potty
"Mommy! I went BIG GIANT poop!"
Priceless.

Olives anyone?
I'm thinking I've influenced Molly is some weird way. After several months of South Beach and lots of salads and weird but yummy foods I normally wouldn't eat, Molly has taken a liking to some very healthy food. Although, this picture implies that she's grossed out by olives - she actually ate the whole can and this was how she felt after eating the whole can. And this child of mine BEGS for salad at dinner. Now even though I eat salad doesn't mean I like it. She actually does (except when she chokes on it and throws it all up again). Nice picture. And she loves coleslaw. She didn't get that from Peter or myself - we both loathe the slaw.

Peanut M&M Lover
Here's the setup: Peter loves M&M's and sometimes ends up leaving an open bag on the coffee table overnight until I find them and put them up the next morning. So, this happened - he left half of a 1 lb. bag open on the coffee table overnight.
What happens next: Molly wakes up before we do on Saturday morning and seems to think that this is her special breakfast food that we graciously left out for her (kind of like cookies for Santa). She proceeds to eat the rest of the bag (minus a few strays) while mommy and daddy are snoozing.
What we didn't know: (Keep in mind that we didn't know about this yet) Molly wouldn't eat the whole day. We kept trying to force feed her and put her in time-out for not eating her food at the table. She didn't take a nap that day and had way too much energy. We couldn't figure it out.
Until...
We discovered the almost empty bag of Peanut M&M's on the coffee table. Peter asks me, "Did you eat the M&M's today?" I said, "No, that's not South Beach friendly, what would I do that?" Then we looked at each other and started busted out laughing because we figured out that Molly had eaten almost a half a pound of M&M's.

Missouri for the weekend
Molly went with my parents to the farm in Missouri this past weekend (as if being away from us for 9 days while we were cruising wasn't enough). She had a blast tromping around the farm and playing in the creek. She did come home with a tick on her head though. We were able to get it off with no major blood loss. :-)
