My son is turning 2 at the end of this month, and I’m still shocked at how the time has gone by. I am however stuck on what to do for his birthday. I have no ideas, but I am up to suggestions. Any ideas? Please let me know!

Yes it is true today my little one woke up at 5:30 a.m. That is way too early. He popped up and requested a diaper, and Barney. I got him back to sleep at 7:00 a.m. I decided to go back to sleep then too. I know that I should have stayed awake, and done something around the house, but I really like to sleep too.

My little guy is actually sitting quietly for a moment, enjoying a cup of milk. He is finally starting to sleep through the night (it only took about 20 months), so I’m finally a little more rest too. I’m sitting here trying to think of all the things we need to get done today, and the Christmas card mailing list that I need to make. Still need to get that shopping done, and figure out what to make for dinner, and so on. Maybe another cup of coffee is what I really need!

I was up late last night, trying to get the teething toddler to calm down, and get some sleep,so I picked up a magazine and started reading all about global warming. And I worried all night about it. It concerns me because its supposed to be eighty three degrees today, and its November! Its crazy, I never thought that I would still be dressing my little one in his summer clothes in the latter parts of fall.
So it got me thinking about what I could do to help. I live in a small town in Kansas, and the town only runs a recycling program during the warmer months. But its still warm now, why not run the program all year? Trash service doesn’t pick up recycleables, and I think that they should! We need to do something now, before the weather gets any warmer!
