Anyway, I am not even sure why I was going to post because we have pretty much done the equivalent of NOTHING this week. I did work on Tuesday, so that did require some effort on my part, but other than that, zilcho! It has been delightful!!!!! The boys did do some painting yesterday. I wanted to hang some stuff in our playroom upstairs. It almost drove me to drink (the painting - the brushes, the mess, the mess, the set up, the take down, did I mention the mess?)but I somehow survived (I always do, right?!) and the pictures turned out great!
Now, for the reason I am feeling crazy....2 words....POTTY TRAINING!!!!!!! Evidently I have done this before because my 6 year old actually uses the potty, but I have pretty much no recollection of this with him....hmmmmm, maybe I chose to block it out! If you will remember, I wrote a post 2 months ago saying that I had possibly bought my last box of diapers...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!! The universe, it mocks me! Or maybe I just didn't want to "lose" my baby....nah, who am I kidding, the universe, it mocks me! Anyway, I have been putting this off for some time...but now, I am home and I can't fight it any longer. So yesterday, we hit it full force...and by full force I mean that we wore big boy underwear and I took Logan to teetee approximately 825 times and he still peed in the floor right after supper.....can't he just wear diapers until he is, well, forever! (I am sure that wouldn't be scarring at all later in life....maybe I just want him to have good material for a shrink.....) So, it is going pretty well, I guess. If nothing else, I get extreme joy seeing his little tiny self in underwear.....I mean, come on, have you ever seen anything cuter........
Which leads me to the other reason that I feel crazy.....today I am feeling so abundantly blessed to be a mom....not that I don't feel this way everyday, but something about today...every time I look at either of the boys I just want to cry. How can they be so big!?! I just absolutely want to eat Logan up......he is so serious when he talks to me.....I am losing my baby! So, just for today, I am wanting another baby....never fear, I am sure the feeling will pass. If you have read this blog for very long or know me even a little, you know that I have this feeling from time to time.....but then the boys start fussing or I actually start thinking about the real logistics of having another child (and by logistics I really mean child care, which puts me into orbit) then I come to my senses and start appreciating the fact that I actually can carve out a little time for myself now and how we can do more things as a family.....okay, there, the feeling has passed, SHEW!!!!!!
Oh, and one more thing to add to the craziness.....I am trying to plan a trip to Disney World! So far, I am reading my book and changing my mind about what all we should do, where we shoud stay, character meals we should attend, etc, etc, etc approximately once every 15 seconds....I will keep you posted on the progress.......
Happy Day!
P.S. Here are the super cool jerseys....blogger and I made up!
