There's a First Time for Everything

Had a couple of "firsts" this week. I went to the store to buy a brush and found this really cool brush with a gel handle that conforms to your grip. So I put it in the buggy even though I wasn't sure I wanted to get it or not. So then Abby got a hold of it and BIT a huge hole in the handle and gel started seeping out. Well, I couldn't very well put it back on the rack and pretend like it never happened. I'd have a hard time living with myself... so I bought it. That was the first time I've bought something that Abby has ruined. I'm sure there will be many more of those experiences to come. *sigh*

Abby also suprised me a few night ago with a "suprise" in the bathtub. That was the first time she ever pooped in the tub. And I hope it's the last.

For some reason I have a really hard time getting homemade bread and rolls to rise. I follow the directions exactly and for some reason they never seem to get big and fluffy. I tried again this week and they rose! Triumph! Brian came home and saw the big beautiful rolls, cheered for me, and then proceeded to eat three of them in a row. Now maybe my flat bread curse is gone.

That is too crazy about the gel leaking out! I honestly don't think I have bought anything b/c P ruined it. Now, I have bought stuff and THEN he ruined it! I've had plenty of poop in the tub:( Then I have to run all the toys through the dishwasher or washer and disinfect the tub....I love clorox antibacterial:) When is your due date???? Do you guys have a name yet for this little boy? I never make homemade bread. But I do love Rhodes Rolls that you buy in the frozen section and let rise at home......you do have to let them rise a LONG time though and that does not always match the time on the package (depends on tempature in your house)

Great "firsts"! I remember Ethan's first time to poop in the tub. We were in a hotel with Jer on a business trip. Even though I cleaned it the best I could, I will always disinfect our hotel rooms. You never know!

Yeah when is your due date.. It is funny to think that Abby's little teeth could bite a whole to make gel start coming out
