Updateish

Okay so I feel like I'm lacking on the Grayson updates so here are just a few things that have been going on and then I will do a full Grayson letter at 20 months (which is closer than I care to admit)

-He has a sense of humor. I mean this kid cracks me up. He likes to be scared and then laughs until he can't breath. He is always silly dancing and smiling because he knows it's funny


-He is still stubborn as hell with food. I try most days to let it roll off my back but sometimes? It still gets to me. His list is growing a little bit like we added jelly to the peanut butter sandwich. One day it worked the next day not so much and so my child continues to be an enigma.



-He is talking up a storm. And his sweet little voice.....I die all the time. When I go into get him in the morning and am met with a MOMMMMMMMA!!!!! Melt my heart. He then proceeds to ask for "Liiiiiiiley"(riley our black lab) "Dada", "whowhowho"(his stuffed owl), "Ickeyyyyyyy Anket" (Mikey Blanket) "Puuuuumigin on pseees MAMA!" (which means pumpkin light on please momma) I'm just eating this stage up.

-If someone leaves the room he always looks at you and says "Go?" all while putting his hand up making the gesture. He is obsessed with Riley and if he leaves the room while G is eating is is a def kong 5 melt down


- He always calls an pumpkin an apple first then when you correct him he giggles says "puuumigin apple" It's cute and I love it and in his defense same shape and both have a stem


- He is getting glowing reports from daycare that he is such a good boy and this Momma is proud. Words that have been used to describe my sweet boy; Caring, Kind, Good Sharer, Patient, Sweet, Awesome listenting skills, Quiet. They do ask all the time if he talks at home. Which he does in 3-5 word sentances but at daycare still fairly silent. Until this week and now he talks like crazy for them! I'm so happy and they said he is very smart and will attempt any word they ask of him.

-We are mostly sussy (paci) free in our house. He gets it at bedtime and naptime and that is it. They follow this rule in the toddler room at shcool so it helps a ton. Now don't get me wrong there are some days that I have had to wake him up and he is just a mess and so I let him have it in the car but 90% of the time it's just at sleeping times.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
