The way J says the word “drink” - dwink
The way J says the word “egg” - with multiple syllables: short e, ah, g (e-ah-g)
That B often jokingly (I hope!) comments that the boys talk like their Mom (me) and that he will have to take them to a different part of the country to get rid of their accent or the boys will never be able to get jobs outside of this region of the country.
That the boys took a 3 lb. container of gummy bears out to their fort and spread about 1/2 the container out all over the second story floor..then got angry when I swept them up and put them in the garbage. (think gummies mixed with sand…)
The boys LOVE to be pushed in their swings.
C has been keeping his bed and cotton underwear dry for over a week (with just 1 accident - the night after we had a babysitter that evening).
We no longer have hershey chocolate syrup in the refrigerator because I caught J one time too many with the bottle turned up to his mouth…
C is loving playing t-ball. His team is called the Bulldogs.
I am not supposed to touch the thermostat in our home because B tells me that the house is comfortable and that my personal thermostat “is broken” (I am always cold and sleep with my side of the heating blanket on - even in the summer!)
The top of our entertainment center in the living room is getting too cluttered with toys that are taken away from C and J. C and J have to “earn” their toys back by being nice. The toys stay out of reach of the boys for at least 1 week before they can be earned back. So far, they are having more toys taken away than are being given back… It goes in cycles. I have noticed that J has hit the “terrible threes.” 3 is so much more worse than 2. I’m glad that C has proven that this stage only last awhile since he is getting to be nice regularly.
I get easily angry at myself that I cannot do everything. I don’t like to be dependent, but I need help to move C’s furniture so I can paint his walls as part of his room makeover for his 5th birthday next month. I guess B and I will do that this weekend.
The joyful lack of noise in the house when the boys are napping peacefully.
