THURSDAY

THIS day is going well. Arielle and Nolan and I got all the reading done that we missed on Monday - Wednesday, as well as today’s reading finished. Jared woke up feeling nauseated but seems to be feeling better this afternoon. He also got school done. Josiah got everything done before I had to take him to work. Jamin decided not to go to practice/training today and is still plugging away at work. I decided to skip homeschool park day because Zander is on day 3 of toilet training and I don’t want to set him up for failure. I can’t believe how incredibly easy this training is going…no accidents at all yesterday or today. I am a firm believer in waiting until a CHILD is ready to train because then it is so easy and Mom doesn’t have to remember to check every 2 hours…but since Zander turned 4 on 8 Feb, he really tested the “wait till their ready” theory. {g} I have NOT a CLUE why he’s in Arielle’s trash can – but there he was.

Nolan and I zipped Josiah to work and took the opportunity to eat Nolan’s first meal (maybe my second?) at Chick-fil- A. We loved watching Josiah work….”Will that be all maam?”, “Can I help you maam?” Ah, he’s a jewel – nah not a jewel a rugged piece of granite! Nolan and I went to a local grocery store to get the ingredients for our healthy drink for the shower. We still made it to speech 10 minutes early.

Speech went WONDERFUL for Nolan today. Miss Natalie says that he self-corrected and even said en-VE – lope…..three syllables with a “V” sound…way to go Nolan. We stopped to pick up balloons for the shower after speech. We were on our way to get the cake when I got a call that Stacia was crying.

I came home. She was asleep. I did a quick clean up…I love the cleaning apron that Mike got me for Christmas. All that is left to do on the house is to sweep and mop the kitchen. I’ll pick up the cake after I get Josiah from work…in about 30 minutes. I’d hoped for a nap but that will come later…..maybe.

Stacia did not do well last night…very fussy with the shots. For some reason Zander was also up and crying. This busy, busy day is going so well I even have time to journal some of it before 10 p.m. {vbg}
