One of my before Preschool goals for Thade was for him to learn how to write his first and last name. He has been practicing all week on his Doodle Pro, and he can write both!
Dylan has a mini Doodle Pro, and he has had fun trying to write too.
One Preschool goal down, and a few more to go!
I have a new pet… Never before have I been so excited to have a toad in the garden, but he is too cute, and he is doing a great job too. This morning I was watering the plants, and my little toad hopped right along with me. Maybe I should give him a name… Anyway since he has made a home in the garden the melons are growing like crazy and I counted at least 4 zucchinis and 3 cucumbers. I hope the veggies will be ready to be picked next week.
A few days ago Dylan smashed his breakfast of bananas all over his super fine hair. I was struggling to get the mess of banana dread locks out of his tangled mop and I decided it was time for a hair cut. I have been cutting Thade’s hair for quite some time, but Dylan is another story… I’ve given him only one hair cut, a scissor cut, that left him pretty grumpy, and me pretty stressed. Oh well stresses aside, it has to be done.
I set Dylan up in the kitchen, in his high chair, along with plenty of toys. I thought the kitchen would be the easiest place to clean up, and he loves hanging out in the kitchen anyway… I grabbed my trusty clippers, and crossed my fingers.
At first Dylan wasn’t too upset, and then all of the sudden came the kicking, screaming, and the tears. He was so mad at Mommy for cutting his long and messy hair, but there was no turning back. I channeled my inner “Shear Genius” and completed the cut.
I think that his cut turned out great, and now he can smash whatever he wants into his new short hair, it won’t tangle and make a mess. He even liked it just a bit, he kept running his fingers across his noggin and saying, “Oooo”.
Mommy is sorry that she mad you so mad though…
Well I’m finally to that point where I have to do something about my migraines. Yesterday I had one of the worst migraines that I have ever had, and it lasted a good sixteen hours. I was sick all day, and I know that something has to be done. I’m starting a headache journal to track my migraines, and I hope it will give my Doctor a little more information too.
I’m also researching birth control options, because I think that the added hormones might be part of the problem. I just hope that I can find something that works, because I don’t think that a Brain Transplant is an option…
With just a few weeks before Preschool starts I’m working on a To Do list for Thade and me too. We have a few things that need to get done, and a few fun things planned too. Here is what I hope to get accomplished before the first day of school.
I’m sure we’ll have more items to add to the list before school begins, I just hope that we can get it all done.
