Okay, so M has been slowly picking up some words. He now says:
1. Owmie - which is really supposed to be “owwie”
2. Pease- “Please”
3. Daddy
4. DVD
So both my kids said “Daddy” before “Mommy”…. but “DVD”? What’s wrong with this picture?
Okay, not so good at keeping up with this blog… October 13, 2006
Not to make excuses, but our house is officially on the market. So I am trying to get this house in order for potential showings…declutter and depersonalize I was told. As the economy is tanking here and the housing market as expected is following suit, we decided to put our house up for sale and if we are lucky enough to sell it before the holidays, we would need to rent a house somewhere. I made DH promise me that living with my MIL was not an option…no matter how tempting it might be to get free rent - for me it would be like having another child to take care of. It’s sad packing up some of our stuff. I didn’t think I would be emotional about it (not that I’m bawling my eyes out or anything), but this is our first real home with the kids. Although I’m looking forward to moving on to WI next spring, it’s sad to leave our home here.
Blahhhh! October 3, 2006
That’s what I’ve been feeling lately. Not sure why. Maybe it’s the stress of having so much to do, and not knowing where to begin. I’m desperately trying to get new stuff for our site up, but it’s hard working with someone who doesn’t live nearby. It’s so important that we get everything finalized in time for the holidays. In the meantime, my house is in shambles. I don’t know how anyone with kids keeps their house clean. I just cleaned my kitchen floors with M following me around, but then I felt guilty because I felt like I should have been spending time with him - reading him books or something. I need to figure a system out or something. Anyone have any tips, please do share!
