My daughter has inherited my raging temper and I finally have photographic evidence. As you look at the photos, you can mentally put my face in place of hers and switch out the toy for a burrito that has onions even though I asked for NO ONIONS, because I swear it's the same scene. Exactly.


It started out with Tony innocently handing her a new toy hoping she'll chew on it instead of eating her hands up.

"Look, Mom, a new toy! I'm not quite sure how to use it, but I'm a genius, so I'll figure it out!"

It takes her a few minutes, but with little help from daddy, she gets it into her mouth and begins biting furiously.

And what do you know? SHE LOVED IT. She was talking and squeeling and biting and kicking.

"Mmmmmmm chewy toy" The chewing goodness lasted about a minute because OH MY GOD... THE TOY FELL OUT OF HER HANDS.

"Can someone please PUT THAT TOY BACK IN MY MOUTH FOR ME? Ok, you're taking too long, I'm going to have to bust out the 'throw myself back and get completely stiff' move now!"

We tried giving it back to her, but she was already pissed beyond the point of return.

"GET THAT TOY AWAY FROM ME. HOW DARE YOU NOT BE THERE TO CATCH IT THE SECOND IT FELL, YOU WILL PAY IN THE FORM OF ME SCREAMING FOR 10 MINUTES!"

If you people only knew how similar my coniptions are, you'd be like "Poor Yvonne, having to deal with a little mini-her"

Like my mom says... "It's payback time"

If she's like my kid, the point she's trying to make is "put the damn camera away and give me what I want! And do it five minutes ago!"

But, that may be just my kid...

well, Tony was sitting right next to her! She just gets PISSSSSSSSSSSED in a second.

Besides, if Yvonne didn't document these moments how would she be able to point and laugh when Gabby proclaims to her future husband that she is NOT a princess. Is not. Is not. Is not. ;-)

Even when angry, she's completely and totally precious!

My, how she's grown! I want a babey toooo... just without the crying/spitting/shitting/vomitting/pinching/grabbing/tantrums. Not too much to ask right...?

btw, she's adorable... :)

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
