More pictures
In his meeting clothes (with Oreo). This one is from October (clearly his hair is a lot shorter) but I had to pop it in.

I'm really so uncreative that I cannot come up with blog titles, so I am sticking with dates for now.
Today was a hard day for Landen, he is going through a no more naps phase? or transition. It's hard on him, he is soooo tired. Tired 3 year old equals cranky and naughty 3 year old. We were really looking forward to the park this afternoon and I had to take that away from him. I had to prove a point to this naughty boy. It was sad, he was so sad, I was sad, what mom doesn't want to give her child everything he wants?
I did enjoy the afternoon though, I focused on the boys, put aside chores, studies, anything else that needed to be done, and we just played, read books, and talked. Life gets so busy, that it goes by, without much time for moments like those.
I'm thinking he needs some good structure. We do things everyday, usually going to a park, reading books, doing calendars, doing a craft, but when things get busy, somethings go missing, and I think he really just needs to use his brain, and learn, and grow. So, that is my goal for the rest of the week, lots of structure and hope that will make a difference.
When it comes to his learning/reading I am not sure where to go next. He knows the letters and letter sounds, and wants to learn more, starts to sound out words, really has been for almost a year, but we are kinda stuck there. As much as he wants to learn, and asks, its hard to get him to focus. He is such a boy, always wants to play play play. :)
Looking forward to the rest of the week. Tomorrow is Wednesday, perhaps service? I should go get my bag ready now. Night!

Ouch not doing so well this time around! Life with two is busy.
I cannot believe that on Monday, Logan will be one year old. I know he's still a baby, but it feels like I won't have my little baby anymore. He has been walking for a while now....regular mode of transportation since 10 months, saying a few words, loves to play, great sleeper, just a good boy. He is happy, and looooves to eat, although he is thinning out.
Landen is almost 3 years and 4 months. Milestones are not as regular now that he is older, but he's fun to talk to you. He says the funniest things, and is always surprising us.
The weather is cold right now. It's been nice, around 80, but we have a cold front coming through and the nights are going down to the 40s, and the days are in the 60s. I am not used to this weather and we have been cooped up in the house. BRRRRRRR. Matt is so used to wearing short around the house that he keeps putting on the heat! I keep saying to him "Matt put some clothes on", as my mom used to repeat to me when I was younger, and it would drive me crazy. LOL Now here I am saying it to my husband. Every time I look the heat is on 75.
Anyway, this cold weather encouraged us to set up our tent in the living room. It's a giant 2 room tent, and the boys had a sleepover in it. Of course my camera has been in hibernation lately. Not really, just going through a phase.
In-laws just moved down, its nice to have them close, the kids love them. They are coming over for dinner tomorrow, and I am nervous to cook for them. I do it often, but I just get so nervous. 6 years later even. I am thinking I will make cheeseburger quiche. Nothing special, but Matt and the kids like it...well, Logan has not tried it. Of course I can't find my recipe. :P
It's 11:30, and tomorrow is a meeting day, so off to bed!
