yesterday was a no good, very bad, awful day full of temper tantrums (from mama and amels) and insanity. i wasn't feeling well--otherwise we would have gone somewhere to take the edge off but i just couldn't do it! luckily steve came home for an hour during the middle of the day to help (of course, amelie was on best behavior...). i laid her down for a nap and more crib jumping ensued...when he got home he saw her true angry colors, which made me feel both better and slightly helpless.

i can't wait till life is more normalized (which, i realize could take months....yikes) as it's hard to expect amelie to behave as her precious self when her life is topsy turvey. she finally turned cute around 8 p.m. and we enjoyed the rest of the night! here's to a sunny morning at the park to cure what ails us!

in other news, amelie has invented a new game! it's called, "i can make it myself." it involves a lot of water at the sink, soaked clothes (thus no shirt in the pictures) and even pasta sometimes--hey, whatever makes the angry amels happy makes the tired mama happy!
yes, even amelie can take a bad picture!

this is what amelie calls, "making it." something to do with hard pasta and sink water....

I hope today is a better day for you. I hate those days when they act like that - especially the part when daddy comes home and they make you look like a total liar. Kids are so smart. I hope your move goes smoothly :)
