Ok, you can really tell I am a busy mother..... I just looked over my previous entries and realized that I had posted the turtle soup story twice! I had no idea that I did that! Whoever said that you lose a piece of your mind with each baby knew what they were talking about, lol.
Life is good and all is going well. Today I will be busy. The girls and I need to get their room cleaned up! We don't have a place for everything yet, so the piles of stuff that I had stacked on the dresser ended up on the floor. We need to figure out a place everything so that they can put it away on their own.
I also plan to make meatballs today - 15 meals worth! I got ground beef on sell and I am going to mix 3 parts beef to 2 parts deer. Cooked meatballs are great to have on hand. It is so easy to grab a pack and throw some BBQ sauce on it for a quick, delicious, meal. There is also a variety of things to do with them. We like Sweet & Sour meatballs, too.
This evening Nathan will be giving guitar lessons to the boys of a family in our church. We will be going to their house for supper, and then the ladies get to visit while the guys do guitar. So I need to get a salad ready to take.
Rosy is enjoying school very much. She has the A mastered! If I give her a paper with something written on it, she can go through and circle all of the big A's and Little a's. I guess that we don't need a week for each letter, like I thought. I think that I will introduce 2-3 letters a week for a few weeks, and see how that goes.
Up till now, Gracie has been utterly terrified of the toilet, and I had postponed potty training. Then yesterday, she decided to try!!! She sat on the toilet several times! That is a major improvement! She hasn't done anything in it yet, but she is talking about it, and she is trying. I will take it slowly.
Last night Lizzie must have thought it was day time. She ate every 2-3 hours. She usually sleeps straight through until at least 4 am. But sometimes she makes it to 6ish. Not last night! SHe rolls around the livingroom now. She is not crawling yet, but I are trying to show her. She loves the attention. Lizzie is very much a Daddy's girl! She lights up when Nathan talks to her, and laughs and giggles. I can hardly feed her when he is in the room. She simply has to look at him everytime he says a word. She tries to do it without letting go, lol. |
