Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies out there! I had a fabulous day. I got to sleep in, had breakfast served to me in bed along side a beautiful new orchid, got to work out, go shopping (Target AND Bed, Bath and Beyond), had dinner made for me, and now I'm getting to watch ER! What a day. My kids drew a special card for me and everything! I wish every day was Mother's Day! ;)
For the last few days James has been really tired at night and decides to throw a fit. We usually let him watch a TV show while we clean up from dinner and Nathan walks the dog. Then we give him a bath, and put him to bed. WELL... whoever is the one to turn off the TV is now James' enemy. He cries and cries and tells us that he wants to go talk to the other parent, and that other parent is then asked to give him a bath. Once getting into the bathroom and turning on the water, James gets upset again and says that he doesn't want to have a bath, he just wants to go to bed. Ok, so we go to his room. Then after the diaper goes on, but before the jammies are on, he decides AGAIN that he wants a bath. Oh, two year olds.
This afternoon when I was giving Kaitlyn her dinner, James told me, "C'ya later, I'm going to go tell Daddy..." and headed upstairs. It was so funny. C-ya later.
I took a series of pictures of Kaitlyn shoving lasagna in her face tonight. I'll try to get them edited and post one or two sometime. She was so red, it was hysterical! She's back to eating a ton of food after being sick. There is no stopping her!
I am putting together a photo album for my dad of his childhood photos. The original one was a true scrapbook that his mom had put together. I'm re-doing it though because it was falling apart and got even more torn up when we rifled through it taking out photos for his 60th birthday slideshow. I was looking at pictures of Dad when he was two... it's a bit freaky how James looks JUST LIKE HIM. Dad, I'll have to show you these when you get home. You'll be amazed. I love looking at the old pictures of my parents and seeing the family resemblance. It's amazing. Kaitlyn has the same facial characteristics that my Grandma Casey had! Weird.
Well, the power is out, better go sit with the kids.
