Ever since Ellie Kate was old enough to interact with us (4 months? 5 months? oh good lord I'm already starting to forget) we have been saying "You're such a biggie!" when she does something new.
And the name stuck.
She is now known as:
Biggie
Bigs
Biggsies
Mrs. Bigglesworth
Biggie Digs
and Biggers
And just when I thought she couldnt get any bigger, she went for a drive in her first car! But not just any ole' car. This is a BMW convertible my friends. Only the best for our little biggie.
ALERT: If your child is difficult, do not read any further. Or you can, but just dont hate me mkay? Because she didnt inherit her uber-calmness from me, I am a crotchety stressed out control freak : )
This week I discovered I have a cuddle bug. She loves to hug and cuddle and give kisses. I didnt even realize other babies werent like this, until some of my mom friends told me. ::dodges punch in the face::
Also? Apparently she has been teething for the last couple days (weeks? months?) because she magically sprouted 2 more teeth on top this morning. I had NO idea she was even teething because she doesnt complain, pretty much e.v.e.r. ::ducks a roundhouse kick from angry moms::
Because of the above content, I am completely terrified to have another child. I was a very difficult child and I just know Karma is going to find it's way to me sooner or later....

Those pictures are just precious. You have such a pretty little girl!
Mrs. Bigglesworth is so stinkin' cute :) love it.
I don't hate. .. much. I have a pretty good one too. Sometimes I think I can't have another one because what if the next one doesn't sleep and I find myself looking at him or her, thinking "I liked your sister better." LOL
i don't hate...but i'm a tad jealous. my little gal just wants to M.O.V.E!
and also, i love you even more that i know that the word crotchety is in your vocab. :)
She is so cute!
I had a colicky, reflux, milk allergic 24 hour screamer but I still love hearing about babies like yours because that shows me they exist and gives me hope for my future children lol
L was a difficult infant, then a perfect little man once he got past that stage (and I stopped breastfeeding...but that's a post in and of itself).
And then he turned 18 months and my world got turned upside down.
Let's just say that I hope Biggie stays as sweet as she is, and if not, that you find great parenting classes like we did!
and you got that car where???
Girl, I am right there with you... I'm TERRIFIED of having another... I just know #2 is going to be the total OPPOSITE of Tucker!
Lord help me!
I love Ellie's nicknames!
And I have news for you, I hope it doesn't happen, but I was a very difficult child too, and I thought I had gotten off easy with our first, but then she turned a year old and developed an opinion about everything, and suddenly I find myself reading about raising my spirited child! :) It makes me even MORE terrified to have another!
I'm like Sarah: Sebastian was great until about 13 or 14 months. Now he doesn't listen and doesn't sleep well, and only rarely gives kisses and never snuggles...
But I'm not afraid for another. I mean, I had a boy the first time around. I HAVE to have another to make up for that. (True story: it never even crossed my mind that I could have a boy. I always knew I was going to have girls and only girls and when I found out Sebastian was a boy I literally cried. And I kept crying everytime I went toy or clothes shopping. And I cried everytime someone mentioned I was having a boy. And I cried when I found out friends were having girls...)
Katie,
I want to confess that my parents have a nickname for me: The Big! :) (I have kept it pretty much secret since now.) I never thought I'd find someone else with the same name. My sister was premature, and I loved to eat as a baby--tada--the Big. :)
I also avoid talking about teething with other mamas as well bc if it wasn't for the waterfall of drool, I don't think we would've known he was either!
Also one my my best friends is a Biggie!
