What's been going on???
February 2007
We have been really busy since the new year began. Daddy has been slaving every spare minute to get our utility room and his bathroom remodeled. Just a few minor finishing touches and we should be back to normal soon.
Parker started preschool, Noah's Ark. We just completed his third week. He is still adjusting and getting better everyday. He has had a tough time learning "the rules"! We have officially had our first "naught note", the dreaded tri-folded, photocopied page with one piece of tape from the parent handbook that outlines "the rules", with a nice personalized note outlining what behaviors your child is projecting that are not in line with "the rules". Ours went something like this.... he is hitting, running, throwing toys at the other kids, and running away from the teachers. I guess we had the naughty LIST. BUT, we met with the teachers and with the consistent efforts of 5 teachers, 2 parents and 1 Nana, I think we are finally on the right track. We are reverting to the "it takes a village" theology. I am happy to say his "naughty chair" time is getting less everyday. He seems to love all the activities and loves classtime.
We also had a snow day. Parker took his first sled ride. Jim tied it up to the 4 wheeler and drug him around. His little pup, Scrappy, was chasing after him. He loved it and did not want to come in, even when his teeth were chattering!
Roman has decided that he is a walker now. He is really getting around pretty good now. He has also decided that he no longer needs baby food and only wants to eat what Parker is eating. He truly a bottom feeder. He goes around looking for scraps off Parker's plate or crumbs that he may have dropped on the floor. He also goes after Parker's sippy cups. He loves puffs and cheerios. He has also just gotten three teeth in...two on bottom and one on top. He other top tooth is trying to break through and it has been a long painful drawn out process. I can't wait for it to come through.
That's about all that has been happening in our life!
