I’ve been watching Joyce Meyer’s Relentless series on podcast. She was talking about how often times we lose the amazement of what God is doing in our lives and I believe this will lead to some dry areas of our lives. She mentions paying attention to the “winks” God gives. You know, when something happens in your life when you know it was just from God. Giving you a little wink saying “I see you. I love you.”  Ex: The other day I lost something very important and was getting mad at myself. Very upset. Well, a little while later, my daughter came up to my husband holding the very thing I had lost. Relief! (wink).  Or when you are looking up at the sky and you see a shooting star. (wink). Or when you happen to go by your favorite product at the grocery store and it’s on sale and there is a coupon! ha (wink). I hope to go on an on…just not in this post.

 But putting away laundry that has been sitting on the couch, hidden in the ‘office’ of our house….that’s just laziness. Oh well. Better late than never! ugh.

 Yes. Today bought Kayle a big boy bed. Well, a Toddler bed. I think he is doing better than I am. Conrad really talked it up today. We all went to the store to buy it. Once assembled, he almost didn’t want to leave it. Went to McDonald’s to celebrate. Stayed up a bit later than usual to let him be really tired before he went to bed. He did great. I laid down by the bed. More for me, than for him. Sniff sniff. A new milestone. I think I need to just double check on him. again.

Actually, I am supposed to be doing several things at this time and need to end this.

At least I got down “just a little something” for today!

Kayle is now 2 years old — well, he will be tomorrow officially — and I have not really kept up with the baby book. Haven’t kept up with blogging about what has been going on in his life. Don’t quite know why both kids even have their own sites (…um, husband?)

anyhow, I think my new philosphy is going to be “Get Over It.” This really started from when I put on my bathing suit and realized it did not hide the fact that I still have weight to lose. Darn it! I was going to change or put a shirt over myself and thought “GET OVER IT!  Obviously I need to lose weight and nothing is going to hide that. Get over yourself.”

Instead of getting hung up on what I should be doing or should have already been doing, I am just going to stop making excuses and START doing! 

So today. I am bloggin. I made a hair appt for Kayle. I went and looked at an area we are interested in moving to. I called the Realtor. I started to look up doctor information on our insurance page..and then the kids (both) got up.

I have a load of laundry in the dryer, one in the wash, and one to be folded. Marathon “movie/laundry” night. Mandatory attendance. Wish I could skip that.

Existing. That is what I have been doing inlife. Just existing. That word doesn’t even look right. Weird!

Anyhow, I am going to exit :0) here and start doing something else.

I like being productive.

It makes me feel happy.

Anyhow,

Kayle is 24.2 lbs according to our bathroom scale (which he enjoys standing on). He now says “dog” instead of the sign for dog when he sees a picture of one. He signs and says Tree (for a few weeks now, acutally). Loves trains (choo choo) and cars. And every rectangular object is a choo choo (diaper wipe box, long legos, etc). He enjoys making marks with crayons and pens.

Rylynn goes tomorrow for her 6 month check up. She is eating cereal, applesauce, and we added bananas yesterday (4/1). She liked them! She also scootches and begins to go “back on her hind legs” a bit as in she is getting ready to then push up and crawl. But that has not happened yet. When she is really tired she says “nnnnnnn” “nnnn”. It’s cute!

Goal 1: Organization

First, I need to start with my inbox. Holy cow? 3274 emails just floating around in there. Why can’t I just delete them when I am done or save them in a special folder?

You know, let’s just end here, post this, and go delete some emails right now.

Being pro-active!

Kayle is now 21 months and Rylynn will be 6 months next week.

Wow.

I better post this now and try for more later. The little girl is getting restless. She is not much into blogging at the moment.
