Shoot me in the face...just do it...now.
Wednesday kicked my trash. It was emotional, stressful, long, and heart wrenching. All in all Wednesday was a friggin dirty fighter and it handed me my arse on a silver platter. So needless to say I'm so glad it's OVER. Suck it Wednesday!! You hump day piece of poodung.
I'm sitting here eating chocolate chips
So while trying to unwind after an exhausting day I was posted up on the couch surrounded by a sea of legos when something caught my eye.
Do you see it?


Mixed in with the slew of legos and cowboy boots, I saw it. Barbie. Laying there in all of her unproportionate plastic glory. Then it hit me...my baby girl has her very first Barbie.
I hadn't thought much of it when my mom came by yesterday and gave it to her. But seeing it tonight just pimp slapped me in the face. My baby girl is playing with dolls, my 3 year old is peeing in a toilet , and my 6 year old is trying to burn down the house. My kids are growing up...and FAST! WOOOHHOOOO!!! Kidding...settle down. I'm secretly sad that they're growing up.
In fact I'm so sad that I'm going to continue to drown my sorrows into this bag of delicious chocolate chips...I may even take the bag with me to the bathroom because from the sound, and possibly smell, of things I have a feeling that I'm going to be hanging out there sooner than later.
What the crap?! She plays with Barbies?! When did this happen?!

awww honey...i seriously thought about you all night...love you lady!!!
ReplyDeleteand that barbie makes me sooooo happy!!! before i even had penny out of my belly i used to stand in front of the barbie isle and open my arms and say to them all..."oh dear babries i'll be with you all again very soon!" hahaha...i was seriously excited about this!!!
I can't wait for Barbie!! Stupid boy toys:(
ReplyDeleteI feel ya, I can't believe how fast they grow up. When I saw Lincoln playing on the playground this weekend I was like "when the he'll did my baby become a boy???" when did he go from struggling to walk to now running at the speed of light?? Guess that means I'll just have to have another one!!
I know how you feel.....no matter what you do....they just keep getting older......
ReplyDeleteAww honey, it's so hard when we realize our kids are growing up. But just think of the fun your gonna have with her...little girls are so fun to watch growing up.
ReplyDeleteStep away from the chocolate chips, here...let me take those for you! Lol :0}
We seem to have managed to MOSTLY sidestepped Barbie. And MAN and will I throw a PARTY when we can get rid of effing "Barbie does Swan Lake" and "Barbie does the Nutcracker." I effing HATE those movies.
ReplyDeleteBut it is a little depressing to see them growing up so fast. I remember the first time Punky read a word, and I can already see the days of resentful teenager right around the corner.
Oh! And I gave you an award over at Cheap Wine and Cookies!
awww (HUGS) poor Alicia. I know how you feel. I have an 8 month old. When did he get past one month? And a 2 year and 8 month old? When did he stop being a baby? :( WAAAA
ReplyDeleteHahah! Where do you get these phrases? You are hysterical!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry it was an awful day, but damn funny post! I hope today is a fabulous one!
ReplyDeleteAwww, big [[[[hugs]]]] sista!!! I hope today is a better day for you!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry you had a suckalicious day! Hey! We have that SAME Barbie! Hold on Momma, soon you'll be shopping at Justice buying glittered hairspray, blue nail polish, star confetti earrings, and bespangled woven scarves. You.Just.Wait.
ReplyDeletePass the bag. Just signed #2 up for kindergarten and #3 is wearing tighty whiteys. Sad days at The Casa as well. Alos, can't believe Chuck is 70? For a man whose legs are named Law and Order, that's pretty dang awesome.
ReplyDeletedarlin...i must have known you needed one bc i announced to my office that i needed a hug and well, no one offered. so, i will send you the hug i want and you can have it forever.
ReplyDeletebarbie is a bitch.
{{{{{{{HUG}}}}}}}}}}}}}
ReplyDeleteHang in there, love~ you made it through!
:)
Christina
sending you a big hug!
ReplyDeletehope today is a much better day :)
Enjoy them while you can!
ReplyDeleteThey do grow fast.
So...did ya' eat the whole bag?? (kidding)
I thought you were going to head to they bedroom with the chocolate... You know what they say about chocolate being an aphrodisiac.
Buck up! As you said, Mario is having a baby. I've already started putting my food storage all together, and searching for local bomb shelters.
ReplyDeleteThat's not as scary as when your daughter tells you she is done playing with Barbie!!
ReplyDeleteAwww lol
ReplyDeleteI think I'll eat a bag of chocolate today too...although I won't end up in the bathroom...more likely passed out cold on the floor (that's what happens when you're diabetic and ingest large quantities of sugar)....my baby is talking in complete sentences at times....this morning? "ooohh Momma...I like those shoes. Very cute." She's only 18mos.....going on 18 years!
ReplyDeleteMy 2 year old got a Barbie for Christmas and I was completely against it for the same reasons you are. That little girl is now potty trained...trained herself and she turns 3 in a few days.
ReplyDeleteI'll be eating baking chocolate out of the pantry on Tuesday!
Long, mid-week days can suck it! Nothing like some carbs and chocolate to make it alllll go away.
ReplyDeleteOur kids ARE growing up..as much as it's a LOT of work when they're young, (and they're so cute when they're little), I am so looking forward to my guys growing up. My hooligans will be little men someday. I just hope I don't screw them up too much.... it's a crap-shoot!
Oh, I'd polish off that bag of choc chips in no time...look on the bright side - at least you aren't celebrating her first Bratz Doll :D
ReplyDeleteHi There! Just stopping in to follow your blog. Hope you can come follow mine! Thanks and have a great day!

ReplyDeleteits so sad seeing them growing up but its so nice at the same time.....sigh...id love some choc chips:(
ReplyDeleteAwwwww... sending you some hugs!
ReplyDeleteI totally know that feeling of feeling like you are going to lose your mind at any minute. I think that's the story of my life with my three kids.
Enjoy your chocolate chips!
"I might just take the bag in there with me"
ReplyDeleteOh girl... you always freakin' crack me up. Hope the bathroom time went as well as possible... and enjoy your monsters while they're still little. Just imagine a house when they're all hormonal teenagers!! Sheesh!
what you need is indeed a big hug. and possibly an air kiss on your forehead. Guess what i'm available without appointment and i could be there in nothing less than 24h!
ReplyDeletewhatcha say?
miss wee rat...
Oh, I hope the rest of your week goes better!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm just glad you let her have a Barbie. Lots of people won't let their daughters have the Barbie anymore.
Sending hugs...
ReplyDeleteI'd like to share some of those choc buds! I had microwaved Chinese... for breakfast!
ReplyDeleteawww they do grow up so fast I was just saying that about my little cousin he wants to do so much by himself now and he's only 4!! Sorry about yesterday hope today and the rest of your week goes well!
ReplyDeleteI hope today was better for you!
ReplyDeleteThe kids growing up is so bitter sweet. The pooping in the potty is great, but do they really have to be getting ready to leave us?
ReplyDeleteMine goes to full-day kindergarten in the fall. I should just get the chocolate chips out right now.
