Meredith Girl's Weekend!

Last weekend, Jaime and Peyton came to visit. Tom chose to flee the girl's weekend (can't blame him) and went to stay at his parent's house. On Saturday, almost all of the original crew from Meredith came over with their kids. Stacy was the only one missing from the crew (Megan, you don't live here, so I'm not counting you!), but we didn't feel too sorry for her, as she was on a boat, without kids, in Charleston.
We had a great time. Here are the mommies and their kids....

Me and Mary Stuart and Molly:



Here is Emily on the left with her newest son, Tate (Cam was home with Dad). On the right is hot-bod Mary Dare. She has three boys.


And here is Kristin and her baby, Walker


These are Mary Dare's two oldest sons. Taylor, the youngest, must have been off by himself somewhere!


And here is Jaime and Peyton:


Otherwise, Mary Stuart and Molly and Peyton had a good time. Mary Stuart wasn't a big fan of sharing her toys with Peyton, and Peyton was the brunt of some jealousy, but overall it was so much fun. Here are two more pictures of the weekend:

Hopefully I'll get my camera back soon. These are from Jaime's camera.

In other news, Molly has been on a "self" kick. In toddler-speak, she want to do everything "self", by herself, even when she can't! For example, she likes to climb into the carseat and buckle herself. When I help her, she swats and me and yells, "self". She has started pulling her diaper off, insisting to go potty, and putting her diaper on "self". She also likes to dress "self", put shoes on "self", brush teeth "self", you name it!! So, the exertion of "self" is upon us. Hello, two!

Yesterday we were at Chik-Fil-A. Tuddie and Pop bought the girls some ice cream, Mary Stuart a cone and Molly a gi-normous cup. We were in the food court at the mall. Mary Stuart sat nicely eating her cone. Molly gave me the evil eye when I asked her to share her abundance of ice cream, even hording it in her arms to protect it from me. At one point, Molly fed me a bite, but apparantly didn't want me to take THAT big of a bite, so she SCREAMED at the top her her lungs, in the food court, and proceeded to hit me. I got a lot of stares.

We just finished the terrible two's with Mary Stuart. No break before round two!
That's all that's been going on here! More pictures to come after the fourth!

We are going through something very similar with the hitting, hording and wanting to do things by herself. I like the twos, but the "terrible" part sucks.
