About Me

Mike and I met almost 6 years ago. I guess you could say through a "mutual" friend :) We finally got married on Aug. 31 2006. After a while, we decided to make an addition to our family! Our beautiful daughter, Addelynn Coy, was born Oct 28 2008. Mike works at Miller Autobody and I am a stay at home mom! Surely the best job in the world! In addition to Addy, we have three dogs, Gunner, Sydney and my mutt Sammie. In our spare time we take Mike's other women (1966 Chevy Chevelle and a 1961 Mazda R360)to car shows. We also like to spend time boating with my family. Hopefully little Addy will love our loves as much as we do!

Addy's first Encounter with a Bully

So this is how it went down:
Addy and I went to the park with Katie (sister-in-law), Emily (friend of Katie's) and their kids. We had a picnic and then sent the kids over to play. They were having a great time! Climbing around, enjoying the slides, ya know kid stuff. Well, these two moms stroll in with their squad of kids about 15 min before we were going to leave. Addy was standing on a platform minding her own business, when this snarling mean 5 ish year old girl takes two hands plants them firmly on Addy's little shoulders and pushes with all her might then screams NO! at Ads. (Addy was totally just walking over to the wall of things to play with not touching or even babling to that girl.) Addy lands flat on her butt. The little mean girl just trots off, no biggie. Oh and Mom, ya she just stood there. You can imagine the R rated words running through my mind. It took Addy a couple of seconds to process what had happened. Then the waterworks. She didn't calm down until we left. I even tried to send her to play with the kids, she just sat down by them and cried. She was heartbroken. SO sad. I was proud of myself for a first time mom with the first encounter with a mean girl. I gave Addy her space to see if she would shake it off. Nope, to heartbroken. Katie even tried to console her, she did pretty good till she set her down to play. So we left to go watch The Super Slueths and take a nap. Well that is my mean girl novel. Good luck to all who encounter such a thing!

  1. you should be proud! man, you handled that well. I cannot for the life of me figure out why these parents don't watch their kids better! If my kid was being mean, he'd be in trouble! These moms, ruining it for all of us! Glad I know that Eli could play at your house and they'd have fun! ... this stuff drives me crazy!

  2. Chels!
    It was good to see you the other day! Your little Addy is so darn cute!
    I can't believe that happened to you at the park. I know I wouldn't have handeled it as well as you! I would have wanted to tell that mom right what to do!
