Well, it's almost been 2 weeks again since I've blogged! What a slacker I'm being. I'm at 11 1/2 weeks into this pregnancy so I'm really hoping the tiredness stops soon. It is crazy how tired I am. I'm blessed that my kids sleep later than most kids I know.....then they nap around 1:30 and I have been napping too. I just can't get enough rest, but hopefully that will soon pass. Especially since the nursery for our new little one is a junk room right now. I have lots to get done!!!
Carson started running a fever last night, so I guess he's getting this junk everyone seems to have lately. He threw up in his crib sometime this morning. Poor thing. He's been puny all day. I guess in about 3-4 days Emmy will get it.
We haven't been doing too much, just trying to beat the heat. The kids have been in their kiddie pool any chance they get. A lot of times they hop in when I didn't mean for them to, like when they are fully clothed and have their shoes on, or when we are ready to go somewhere and I'm trying to load them in the car. Carson loves wearing his shoes and he rarely takes them off. I put them by his crib so he can get them first thing when he gets up. He promptly puts them on each morning. It's cute.
Speaking of cribs.....Emmy's crib is no longer on wheels. The kids were playing so good in their room today and I was getting a few things done. I went to check on them and her crib was in the middle of the room and 3 of the wheels were gone. I guess they decided to do some repairs......you really never know what they are going to get in to.
Carson has started saying a few more things, which is funny to hear. He's been so quiet and has only said "momma", sometimes "dada", and "tractor" for so long. Now he can say "thank you", "shoe", and a few other things. It's still hard to understand though.
Emmy talks very clearly and says a LOT! I can have a conversation with her, which is so weird.
I've been drilling please, thank you, and you're welcome into them lately. It is my biggest pet peeve to be around kids who don't use manners, all the time. I fully think they should use them, even at home, even with each other, etc. There were only two things my parents really made us do (they weren't very strict :-) and that was use manners & write thank you notes if someone gives you a gift. So, those are two things my kids will definitely be doing.
Anyway, off of my soap box......my point in all this was.....
Emmy uses thank you a lot. That is her favorite thing to say and she says it to us, her brother, other people when they give her stuff. Today, I wondered if I had been making them say it TOO much......she went over and picked up her sippy cup off the floor and said "Thank You" to......herself????
I thought it was so funny.
We are practicing with our baby dolls a lot too, loving on them, Emmy tries to feed and give them drink, she wraps them up in blankets. She is really a little mommy. Carson just loves on them and hands them back. Typical man-haha! :-)
Well, I'm off to get some sleep. I will try to write more sooner! I have a dr.'s appointment tomorrow so I'll update after that.
