Life in General is Good

Things are good here. S continually amazes me. He is 2 years 8 months old. Amazing. My little baby will be 3 in 3 months. Sigh. He is overall good. He does have his moments of freaking out in toddler fashion. But these are not too frequent, thank goodness. He still naps about 1.5-2 hours a day. Mostly he is at daycare during those, but on the weekends it gives us a wee break!

We just got back from a week at Disney World. It was FUN! S enjoyed it and his time with grandparents. He only has one set of grandprents (on Dad's side, my parents are both deceased). They unfortunately live 1200 miles away, so he doesn't get to see them much (or they him).

He loved the little race cars at Magic Kingdom. He loved the "castle", parade. Most things he loved. He didn't like anything too loud.

He's talking an amazing amount. Full sentences.

Here are a few pictures

Halloween


Hope that everyone had a Happy Halloween. It was fun here. S took a while, but he finally figured out that people were putting stuff into hisbucket that he might want. We met up with one of the people I work with who has a daughter a couple of months younger than S. So cute! They were playing together in the yard, fun stuff.

S is now 2 (and a month). Growing. Talking. Being a 2 year old, LOL He is fun at this time.

I think this warrants attention

Apparently this is the republicans trying yet again to stick their noses into the reproductive rights of women in the US:

"If approved by the Department of Health and Human Services, the rule would broaden the definition of abortion to include the most widely used forms of birth control, which can prevent implantation of a fertilized egg.

The existing abortion definition used by the federal government and medical groups is the removal of a fertilized egg that has successfully implanted in the uterine wall, where it would continue to grow. "

I really really hope this doesn't pass.

Oh my

I am starting to work on adding links to blogs I enjoy reading. So far I have one added because I'm on the computer that doesn't have all my links on it. I guess having a blog for 3 years, I should work on links!


Be patient, I'll have more links up soon, PROMISE!

Too True

Long time


It has been a long long time. Do I have an excuse? Nope. Just life in general. That and being deliriously in love with my little man and well, just kept putting things off and putting off until you feel like if you do post, well then, who would still be reading?

We've been busy being busy. Went to PA in May. Visiting family. Took an airplane. With a 20 month old. Ugh. He kept trying to kick the seat in front of him and screeching when I wouldn't let him. DH put his head in his hands as if to say "I'm not part of this". Pissed me off! After the first 45 minutes or so, S fell asleep and that made things much easier.

Packing to travel on a plane with a toddler is a PAIN IN THE ASS. There is way too much stuff needed. Way too much. Even when you are going to a place that has stuff for the child to play with. So we had one large suitcase (weighed in at 49.5 pounds), and 2 smaller one's checked AND the bag with the toddler toys for the plane.

S is doing great. His vocabulary and putting words together is moving at amazing speed right now. He is 21 months old now. He says things like, "no more please" and "TRACTOR!!!!" (he loves tractors), "dat's my car" "kitty eat". Fun stuff :)

I hope that all are doing well..

Thanksgiving

I have been so remiss. Sigh.

Thanksgiving was great. I cannot believe I have my little one. He is so much fun. He'll squeal when he sees me come home or when Daddy comes home. We took him to a hockey game on Friday, he did great. Fell asleep in the 3rd period, and slept through the yells, screams and booing.

My house is a mess. It seems to be that way no matter what. you know what? I really don't care most of the time. A huge part of the mess is because of my son, and hey, he's worth it!

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving.
