It's a beautiful day!!!!

Thank you Lord for the sunshine .(And the wind!!!! Perfect balance!) Evan and I went out early to wait for the bus and took in a little rays. Then Gussie and I went on a walk. He was so excited to see the ducks at the lake. It was wonderful until we stumbled upon a nesting Canadian Goose who thought we were a little too close for comfort. Did you know geese hiss? I didn't....but that's a little lesson I learned today! :) She hissed at us and stretched out her neck, ready to beak us! Mommies! Ahh....I totally get it.

Gus. Whoa, nelly!


These past 2 weeks have been a whirlwind. Well, actually-more like a level 3 tornado. The boys have been bananas! Gus has decided that sleeping is a waste of precious time. No sooner do we tuck him in, before we are tripping over him in the living room! He can climb outta bed, turn off his noise maker, turn on his light and get out the door before we have barely closed the silly thing! What do I do?!??! I keep putting him back in bed and telling him he MUST obey. I have sat with him. I have rubbed his head. I have spanked. I have sat ON him. I have cried. I have given him a pacifier back. EVERYTHING! Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!


This morning he snuck past me while I was drinking my morning joe and went into my bedroom, shutting the door behind him. I peeked in at him only to find him cuddled up in my bed. I gently shut the door and prayed he was going to bed (since he only slept 5 1/2 hours last night!) When I crept over 5 minutes later-certain he would be slumbering-instead I found him with my eye glasses bent and horribly askew (upside down) on the bridge of his nose. AHHHHHH!!!!! Help me!
