!@(santa_fecerise_red.jpg popimg: “Hyundai Santa Fe”)My daughter is absolutely spoiled rotten – even at only 11 weeks old she has her own car. Her daddy insisted that she couldn’t stay home all winter without a car. He was a man on a mission today – he was not going to come home until he bought one for himself so he could give Sierra his. Mission accomplished! Now Sierra has her own Cerise Red Hyundai Santa Fe (and a chauffeur) while daddy has a Black 4-door Hyundai Accent. She told me that now all she needs is a raise in her allowance so that she can take mommy shopping – atta girl!

!@(DCP_0005.jpg popimg: “Sierra”)Yep – Sierra now weighs in the double digits! At her Dr’s appointment yesterday she weighed in at a whopping 10 lbs 14 oz! She’s a big girl now – so big that last night she – OMG! – Slept through the night! A whole 12 hours straight. Someone once told me that 10 lbs was like a magic # – once their kids weighed 10 lbs they began to sleep through the night. I never beleived them. But over the past month she’s been sleeping longer and longer – usually only requiring one feed in the night – but last night was the best – a whole 12 hours straight. I’d be well rested, only I kept waking up to check on her ’cause she hadn’t gotten up yet… Ahhhh – the life of a mom!

Sierra is grounded – no TV! One week! (Just call me the TV Nazi).

Ok – so she doesn’t watch TV yet – but when is it ok to begin disciplining them? ‘Cause today she totally deserved it. First she bit my nipple with her gums. I yelled “ouch” and she turned to me and gave me the cutest gummy smile. I quickly forgave her. Then later in the day she threw a temper tantrum while we were at FabricLand (to buy some fabric to make a wrap sling – I found a great website that teaches you how to wear your cranky kids). Seriously – my two month old threw a tantrum! She began crying in her carseat in her “travel system” stroller. When I picked her up she began to pound my chest with her tiny little hands! After a few minutes she calmed down and fell back asleep. She got her way and mommy put her on her tummy in the stroller, ‘causing me to have to walk all the way home pushing her stroller with one hand and carrying her useless carseat with the other. So tonight when Cosmo Boy came home I told him not to let Sierra watch TV ’cause she’s grounded (I would have made her sit on the “naughty step” only she can’t sit yet…).
