First Dental Visit

Today Ali had her first dental visit for her front teeth that she hit on the headboard of my bed. She really wouldn't let them even look in her mouth, but when they finally got to look the doctor said that she should be fine it was just a cut above her teeth and it may or may not affect her adult teeth. She apparently hasn't learned to calm down any though she's still active and jumping around on everything. I just hope that she doesn't hit her mouth on anything else anytime soon.

Poor Ali

Today was not a good day for my little princess at all. While i was at work and she was at the baby sitters she pulled something on top of her and scratched her face right under her eye, hopefully it won't leave a scare. Then when i was trying to get her ready for bed she decided to play around on mommys bed and busted her tooth on the headboard. Tomorrow i have to call and make her an emergancy appointment to make sure her front tooth is okay. I feel bad for her my poor baby has a busted mouth and a cut under her eye. At least she hasn't done anything so bad that it needed stitches.

National Aquarium




Here are some pictures from our trip to the aquarium as you can tell Aelita really liked being able to go up to the tanks and look at the fish and other animals.

Inspirational Thought

"Remember, a good attitude produces good results, a fair attitude fair results, a poor attitude poor results. We each shape our own life, and the shape of it is determined largely by our attitude."

Aelita Michelle


This is Ali right after she got off her bike. She makes some of the funniest faces at times. She loves being out side and it's still warm out here so she still gets to go out and play with the dog and ride her trike as long as she lets us put her helmet on.

National Aquarium

Yesterday we took Ali to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. She had so much fun looking at all the fish,sharks, stingrays, dophins, and all the other animals that were there. Mommy got really tired and worn out but Aelita really enjoyed herself. I'll post Pictures Later when we have more time.

My Big Girl

Aelita is getting so big way too fast. She loves to help with the laundry and will even put her dirty clothes in her hamper by herself. She'll also put her shoes under her bed now. She loves going to story time and music makers and playing with all the other kids. I hope she's as nice to the baby as she is to the other kids in her storytime and the babies at church.

Mommy's little Princess


Aelita is starting to calm down a little bit at least at church on sundays, until she sees another little kid that she wants to go play with. Today at general conference she was all over the place but mainly because she got bored after the first talk. I just hope she calms down more when the new baby comes.

Inspirational Thought

"Needed are...[souls] filled with compassion, that we might communicate not only eye to eye, or voice to ear, but in the majestic style of the Savior, even heart to heart."
--President Thomas S. Monson; Ensign, November 1994, page 70.

New Baby

How do you tell a 16 month old that she's going to have a little brother or sister? Its kinda hard to tell Aelita that she's going to be a big sister. She's starting to get really clingy lately and gets jealous anytime i even hold another baby.

Temper Tantrums

Aelita has been having such a temper lately. She constintly want's to be held all day and I just can't do it anymore. She's getting to heavy for me to hold especially when she still throws her tantrums while i'm holding her. I just wish she could understand why i can't hold her so much anymore.

My Poor Girl

Aelita is so accident prone lately, just this week she has busted her mouth twice hitting the table and fireplace trying to get to a toy. she's slammed her fingers in the dryer and kitchen drawers and cabinets and she hit her head playing at the park going under one of the little bridges. I feel so sorry for her getting hurt all the time but she really doesn't listen when you tell her not to do something.

Shopping with Ali

Shopping with Aelita is quite a fun task. Lately she's decided that it's okay to open and eat whatever it is that we're buying. Today she ate 1/4 a container of Mushrooms. I'm thinking i'm going to need to go grocery shopping with out her from now on or put her and the food in two different carts.

Mommy's little helper

Aelita is becoming quite the little helper around the house lately. We've actually got her doing little chores around the house like making her bed, picking up her toys and dirty clothes and putting them were they go and picking up her trash. Every time she helps mommy do those things she gets a sticker and at the end of the week she gets a dollar. Sometimes she'll even try to help put clothes in the washer and dryer. She's growing up so fast it is nice to have help picking up her dirty laundry and toys though.
here's a picture of her trying to help put dishes in the dish washer.
