ME AND THE BOYS TODAY

Because I now have to work weekends, I do not really get the chance to do much with the family. Today however I kept the boys home with me and am going to get out with my mother. Should be nice. We are going to go to Flag Staff Mountian, where my mother and step-father got married. They are looking... Sign in to see full entry.

They were both active before they were born

I am right now watching a show called ‘Pregnancy for Dummies: The Second Trimester’. One of the ideas they started in on was that at that point a woman should start feeling the child move around a lot. It talked a little about how some babies are not very active. Both of my boys were very active... Sign in to see full entry.

DADDY, DADDY, DADDY

I sometimes talk to people who think the kids are too much work and would never have any themselves. There is even a guy here at my work who has a child on the way and his outlook about raising kids is very negative. He talked about how kids say stuff like 'I hate you' and throw fits and such. I...

THEN CAN WE PAINT A BLUE JACKET?

My five year old was wanting to help with the painting of our bedroom. I told him I would let him help with the second coat of paint. H got very excited about us painting coats. I tired to explain that we were not painting coats, but that paint goes up in coats and that it is not the same thing.... Sign in to see full entry.

A ROUGH EVENING

Both boys were not doing good at all last night. Our five year old we think is hitting another growing spurt. Everything upset him and he kept saying he did not feel god, but it did not seem that he was sick. Our little guy seemed to get upset because his big brother was upset a lot of it. It did...

I'M FIVE, I CAN CALL THINGGS ANYTHING I WANT TO

So last night I am fixing chili. My son walks into the kitchen and looks at what I am cooking. He says 'You're cooking mac and chili.' I of course figured he was getting it confused with mac and cheese. 'No mac in it,' I explain. 'It's mac and chili,' he says. 'No, it's just chili.' 'I call it mac... Sign in to see full entry.

I AM MISSING THE WEEKENDS WITH MY FAMILY

Working weekends is really getting old already. I would much rather be doing activities with my family. I have already missed out on a lot. Both of my nieces' birthday parties have been held while I was working. Just so much happens on the weekends. I really enjoy being active with my family. We... Sign in to see full entry.

He does not like shots now

I am not sure what he thoughts shots were. All day I guess he had been going off about getting shots and was really looking forwards to them. He was very annoyed that he had to wait for the doctor to be ready for us. His brother went first since he only had one shot this time around. He cried a... Sign in to see full entry.

HE LIKES SHOTS

Our five year old is looking forwards the possibility of getting a shot tomorrow. We have no idea where this comes from. He does not handle pain all that well normally. I recall last time he was to get a shot he was excited about it. Just very strange stuff there. I can not help but wonder if he... Sign in to see full entry.

A GOOD NIGHT UNTIL I TOOK A BATHROOM BREAK

My night with the boys went well all in all. We had fun playing around and just being boys. Both boys did a good job of doing as they were told and behaving themselves. Then I had to go to the bathroom. Our little guy followed me there and so I figured as normal he would just wait outside the... Sign in to see full entry.
