Frozen Tundra or Sauna?

When I was preggers with Sweet pea I was constantly hot.  This was especially true at night.  It got to the point where I'd sleep with the over head fan on and a regular sized, stand fan pointed at me.  It was the only way I could get cool enough to sleep.  I assumed that after I had Sweet pea I would go back to "normal".  

It is 2 years later and I still have to have both of my fans on at night.  I guess I'll just always be this way.  Eh, it's no biggie, just crank up the fans.  However, I do feel bad for the Hubs.  Before I got preggers I was always the cold one.  He would sleep comfortably with only the sheet, whereas I would be huddled under the quilt with another blanket thrown on top.  Now, however, the tables have turned.  I need it to be so cool in order to sleep that it actually makes him too cold.

He now sleeps under our quilt and at least 1 other blanket.  Some nights it's 2 blankets.  My poor husband!  The things he puts up with because he loves me!

Have a great day!

Middle of the Night Math

The Hubs and I have a projection clock in our room.  It's great for when you wake up in the middle of the night, and want to know how much longer you have to sleep.  Yeah, it's great, except for when it mysteriously stops telling the time right.  All the sudden you realize that it's 3 hours behind.  And the weird part?  It STAYS 3 hours behind.  It doesn't gain any time or lose any time.  It's just odd.

So in this instance, because "projection clock" doesn't usually end up on the list of items to buy at the store, and as I constantly tell the Hubs, "if it's not on the list it doesn't get purchased!", We've been living with a clock that is 3 hours behind. Therefore, in the middle of the night when I roll over and look at the clock I have to add 3 to get the real time.  

While this doesn't sound complicated, to a very drowsy, muddled mind it can be hard.  Note to self, buy a new clock!!!

Have a great day!

Mess-a-phobe

Firecracker is a messaphobe.  He HATES to be messy.  Last night the Hubs was outside mowing the lawn and he got grass all over the patio.  Firecracker was watching from inside and he started yelling, "no, Daddy! You're making a BIG mess!  Daddy! Stop!"  It cracked me up! 

 After the Hubs was done mowing, and cleaning everything up, we had to call Firecracker back to look at the patio again and see that Daddy cleaned up the "mess" he made.  Hahahaha!  Gotta love that little man.  He sure keeps us on our toes!

Have a great weekend!

Puddles

At what point in our lives do we stop enjoying puddles?  My kids love puddles, especially Sweet pea.  I try to steer her away from them as much as possible, but she is enthralled.  

It makes me wonder, when do we become so grown up that we stop enjoying puddles?  My guess is that it is about the same time we start becoming a grown up.  So for now, I'll let my kids enjoy the puddles (unless they're in church clothes), because I want them to stay little forever! =)

Have a great day!

Sunglasses

Firecracker has a hard time getting up in the morning.  When he does get up, he despises the light.  He complains that it's "hot in his eyes".  Our solution?  Sunglasses.  Every morning after he wakes up, and before I turn on the light, he grabs his sunglasses and puts them on.  And then he's completely happy to go about his morning doing all that needs to be done to get to school on time.  I love my quirky little man ;).  I wish all issues in life were fixed as easily!

Have a great day!

Wogging

I know, you're thinking "what in the world is wogging?!"  It's a new breed.  See once upon a time (about 2 weeks ago) there were 4, fabulous, however out of shape women that decided it was high time to do something about their out of shapeness.  They decided to start a running regimen.  

While this sounded great at first, the fabulous four quickly realized that if they wanted to make it more than one city block that they would have to build up to running.  Thus, wogging was born.  The fabulous four decided to walk for a set amount of time and intersperse it with running.  It has been working very well, not to mention, the walking parts help the out of shape women time to catch their breath, and complain about how hard it was to run that last bit ;).  

P.s. Yes, I am one of the fabulous four ;)

Have a great weekend!

E-O Had A Farm

Sweet pea loves to sing.  She sings all the time.  I love it.  Lately she has been singing her own version of one of two things:  It's either Old McDonald Had a Farm or Happy Birthday.  They are so cute!  I'll share her version of the lyrics with you:

Old McDonald- "E-O had a farm. Duck!", repeat about a thousand times. ;)  Sometimes she'll ad a "moo- moo here, moo- moo there"

and 

Happy Birthday- "Happy dirth day (fill in random family member's name here)."  repeat 60 times, each time switching out a different name.

It's really quite cute, although sometimes I'll tell her it's time for Mommy to turn on the radio.  Even when a sweet 2 year old is singing their own version of a song, 45 minutes it gets slightly old.  Sometimes a 15 minute break is all one needs.

Have a great day,
Ms. T
