Okay, the kid is almost 4 months old and my original plan of posting weekly, which quickly changed to monthly, has now been changed to whenever I get a spare moment, and with no good tv and my pasta taking way too long to cook, the moment has arrived.

Well, last night I had quite the baby emergency on my hands, and another thing to add to my list of "things the prenatal class forgot to cover". Prior to the baby's arrival I thought I was being very conscientious and buying her a pacifier that was not only cute, but orthodontist approved...problem being, we only bought ONE! Last night the little terror....I mean swee...no, I mean terror, decided to intentionally spit out her pacifier so it fell behind her crib on the floor, making it impossible for me to find in the middle of the night, can you say nightmare, this kid went from Gerber baby to Linda Blair in less than 3 seconds. After a very sleepless night I thought it best to get to the baby store first thing and buy a second one. After examining her original soother I realized it was coming apart and thought, no problem, she has a new one. BIG PROBLEM, she can tell the difference!!!! It has taken me over an hour to write this short entry as I am constantly interrupted by her screaming after having spit out her pacifier, but still wanting it....I really don't think I can ever win...she better be extra cute tomorrow and say 'mama' for the first time to make up for this or I'll have no other recourse but to take out my crankiness on my husband...again.
