Lagging

I'm kind of lagging on blog posting lately.

The other night as I was getting daughter ready for her bath, I was nuzzling my face in her neck while she was lying in my lap and we were both laughing. I went down to nuzzle her one last time and BAM - her head came up and her two front teeth gouged the very tender area between my nose and upper lip. She was stunned and I instinctively began tearing up uncontrollably. I knew it was going to be ugly so I didn't even look in the mirror until I finished her bath and put her down for the night. The cuts are small (2) but deep. Thank GOD for Neosporin. I hope it heals nicely.

Since my mommy's group is not really meeting anymore, we often email updates on what our little ones have been up to lately. 2 of the moms just sent theirs in and their kids are talking (a LOT), counting to 10 AND have learned almost the whole alphabet. I know I shouldn't feel this way, but I'm feeling a bit incompetent. Like it's my job to teach her these things. It's not that I'm not trying but it gets frustrating when all she says is Hi, mama, and dada. I know, I know, it doesn't matter but it's still hard to hear. I know enough not to push my daughter - she'll talk when she's ready.

Hubby took the day off work today (Yay!) to be with us as he has been MIA all week with work stuff. He didn't get home until almost 2am last night!

I am working on getting daughter's first passport (pain in the ass) as we are likely heading to London and Paris in June to tag along with hubby's business trip. I'm excited but nervous about a 10.5 hour plane ride with a toddler. God help me. Just for the fun of it I checked on prices for a Virgin Atlantic first class fare to London - $12,815. HOLY SHIT people. Who pays that? Seriously. Husband gets to fly it because the company uses their miles. Daughter and I will be livin' it up in the back. Whooohooo! I am going to talk him into exchanging his 1st class ticket to cover ALL of our tickets. Smart, eh?
