Busy Day

Toay we've been really busy. J got up and went to the Y (he's lost 20 pounds!) while I got the boys fed and dressed and we went to get a few groceries. When we got back I didn't even take the boys out of the car, I just switched places with Johnny and he took the boys to the mall to play while I cleaned the house. It was NASTY. We did lunch and someone came to buy my old cloth diapers. The boys are down for their naps, Nina is here and J is tying flies. After I drop Nina off, I've got to shower, clean the toilets, and eat dinner before I go back to pick her up and take her home. Then when I get home we're taking the boys over to church for Luke and Nadine to watch during our small group. It's a parenting group here at our house this year. At first we weren't looking forward to it, but I think we're going to be able to draw quite a few people in through the group, so that's good. After today though, things shouldn't be too bad!

Corban is going to be 3 years old in two weeks, I can't believe how grown up he is! The other night he woke up and came out into the hallway and when I came out to meet him, he grabbed my hand and said, "Mama, I need your help with my blankies." The way he said it was just so matter of fact, just melted my heart. He crawled back into bed and I straightened up his blankets and he went right back to sleep. Caden put three words together yesterday, he said, "Do bouse, on." That was his way of telling me he wanted to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. He also did the funniest thing I think I've ever seen him do the other night. Both boys were sitting on Johnny's lap and Caden was asking for Mickey Mouse. Corban said, "No, Caden, we're not watching Mickey Mouse this week." Caden looked at Corban for a second and then just lunged at him. It was totally like, you're not going to take MY Mickey Mouse away from me! Ahhh... the joy of two boys in the house. I'm sure we're going to be seing all kinds of fights from now on. Susan and Sherry will know these joys soon enough! Well, gotta get going. I'm hoping to ge to the Y this week at least 3 times - we'll see.
