Finally!

DISCLAIMER: still no photos!!!!

Thanks to my beloved friends who care so much... I finally got my wedding dress!!! Yeah! I didn't realize what a relief it was going to be. It's not like I am not excited about the wedding - I AM. I just hate all the attention. All these brides were trying on dresses and ooing and aahhing... trying on way too many. My mom, bless her heart, pulled one out that I loved. They didn't have my size, but I ordered one and it will be in the last week in March... and yes, our wedding is April 18. Everyone keep there fingers crossed that everything goes well. I gave Anthony the catalog for the Tuxedos, so now it is his turn!

The girls have been really good. Abby is upping the anty (sp?) on bulling Ruby. Now she sneaks up on her and : roars, pulls her hair, throws something at her, hits. I know she isn't 2 yet, but we officially started time-out on Saturday. She stays in the hall, cries, and then when I get her out I walk her over to Ruby and tell her to say she is sorry. Then Abby says "I sorry"... and runs away. It's like she doesn't want to acknowledge for too long that she has done something wrong. Even better, when she hurts Ruby, I grab her and tell her "NO ______" and march her to time out... the whole time Ruby is saying "Mommy, be nice to her" WTH! I'm never going to win. I hate to say this, but one day... very soon I hope, she is going to learn her lesson the hard way. She is going to venture beyond bulling Ruby and hopefully - I know this sounds mean - she will get a taste of her own medicine. I love you baby, but be nice!!!! Don't get me wrong, she is more of a lovable, fun and adventurous kid that, to me, is irresistible. She loves to snuggle and kiss and hug. Maybe it is just jealousy... t.b.c.
