Freak Show!!!

Sarah has hives. I thought that they wouldn't be this bad. It looks really awful and I am disturbed by how she looks. We went to the doctor today and she said that there isn't much we can do for it. We just have to wait it out. In the mean time my sweet baby looks like a freak.....

Elizabeth is 4




Our Elizabeth turned 4 on Monday, April 18th, 2011. She is no longer a toddler!
We celebrated her birthday a day early at Grandma and Grandpa's house. The whole family (minus Shelley---We missed you) was in attendance. It was super chaotic. We had an Easter egg hunt and then we ate a yummy peanut butter cake (thanks Maria it was delicious) that was decorated with Elmo candy. Elizabeth got lots of fun gifts this year. She got her first Build a Bear --Monkey that we named Georgina (her poor Curious George has been replaced). She also got a play dough set, a Curious George memory game, a book that makes sounds, a Dora movie and a doll from Grandma and Grandpa Smith. She was one spoiled girl this year.
Even though Elizabeth is one busy girl, we are glad that she is in our family.

Sometimes I Just Want to pull out My Hair!

I am so hopping mad right now.......I don't know why Elizabeth feels the need to take off her diaper and play in it. Tonight I put her in her room for her to go to sleep for the evening. My neighbor came over to visit when Elizabeth starts hitting the door. I go and check on her and she is covered in poop. Not only that but her walls,carpet and favorite stuffed animals have poop on them to. It took me 30 minutes to get everything wiped off. Tomorrow I am going to have to steam clean her carpet and scrub the walls with bleach. I know Elizabeth has some challenges but I just wish she would stop taking off her diaper every time she poops or pees in it. She will be 4 this month and refuses to get potty trained. We have tried to duck tape her diaper put panties over it and we have even put her diaper on backwards. Her special ed teacher and occupational therapist have given me so many suggestions but none of them seem to work. I need a miracle to get his girl potty trained.
