Today

Right now Jonas is eating a paper cd cover and tearing it apart at my feet, while the little four year old girl takes a nap in the backroom in a Cinderalla dress. Evidently she was playing dress up instead of taking a nap and was caught in the act when she decided to turn on the radio in the backroom and it was on extremely loud. I caught her in panic as she tried to turn it off. I am also homeschooling the little girl with kindergarten material in math and reading. The other day she rememebered what a rhombus was but could not remember a triangle for the life of her. About an hour ago I was in the process of taking a nap and as soon as I laid down I heard a crying noise. I really believe the kid has secret sensors set up in our home that alert him when I am trying to do something for myself instead of him.

Let's change the subject from kids to running. I am running every night to get in shape for a race in November, I have ran since I was twelve and loved it and somedays I feel like a grandma could beat me . But I believe it is the best excuse to leave the house and get alone for awhile from the little one. Look the subject turned back to him even though I was making a point not too. Well he is standing up grabbing at my shirt saying mom so I have to go .

Motherhood

So I finally have time to add something besides photos to my blog. Let's see Jonas is clapping now, he can almost walk, and I am busy saving him from hurting himself. I have been teaching him sign language and he can say food and dirty diaper and bye bye and give me . I am still unsure why I taught him give me at the time I thought it would be good to know what he wanted. Um... mistake. Although I have been realizing that sing language can be used against you as well, like when he knows it is nap time and he tries insisting he has a dirty diaper, when he evidently doesn't since you changed it two minutes before that time. He is also learning to put everything in his mouth today he ate carpet and was gagging, so once again I rescued him. I have even found him eating old kitty litter talk about gross.

I am also busy babysitting another four year old little girl and teaching her kindergarten material. I am involved in Mothers of Preschoolers group, and am in charage of a playgroup for our church, in my "special time. " I am training for a road race in November, learning to crochet, and trying to bake one new thing a week (so far I have made homemade bread and coffee cake.)

Wow two post in one day world record for me.

Some photos of Jonas boy!
