Dogs- 3, Kaitlyn- 3

So I went to bed at 9:15pm hoping for a good nights rest. What was I thinking? Was there a full moon?

I opened the windows last night in the kitchen and 1 in the living room and turned off the A/C. This could be the reason the dogs had to get up 3 times last night starting at 11pm. They were up at 11pm, 12 am and 2am. They went outside and did their stuff and came back to bed. That's great seeing as though they didn't mess in the house.

Kaitlyn decided to wake up at 1am, 3am and 4am. The 4am was to change a dirty diaper and the other 2 were because of habit (?) or she was in pain. I gave her some milk and she went back to sleep with no problem.

Josh slept the whole night. He woke up and wanted to snuggle in his blanket and he watched The Hulk (a cartoon Jason taped for him that has the Hulk in it). He didn't want to get changed out of his jammies because it was cold, but he did it and was fine.

In the car on the way to school Kaitlyn decided she didn't want her shoes on. She kicked and rubbed them against her car seat until they came off. Next were the socks! She's too funny with that. Josh decided since sister wasn't wearing her socks or shoes he was going to take his off. Thankfully he only got on foot uncovered before we got to school. I carried them both in and the teachers laughed at them. I told them what happened and they thought it was funny. I have no idea how I'm going to keep socks and shoes on Kaitlyn.

Not another one

So I got a call from Daycare at 3pm. I said, which one is it? Ms. Barbara said Josh was throwing up. I asked if he had been coughing and she said the teacher said no. I packed up and went and got him. When I got to daycare I asked if it was just my kids that got sick so much and Ms. Barbara said I didn't have to take him to the doctor. We both felt he was probably coughing and threw up. I told him I had to go get his stuff and he was concerned that we were leaving Baby. I told him daddy was going to get her. With how Kaitlyn has been feeling and not knowing how Josh was going to be I didn't want to shoot myself in the foot.

We got home and you couldn't even tell Josh was feeling bad. No fever, no nothing. He did complain a few times that his belly hurt, but he never threw up. I'm not sure what's going on.

Jason got home and Kaitlyn was in a great mood. After dinner, which was ready when they got home, Josh and Kaitlyn played for a bit. I haven't heard her giggle so much in a long time. That was sweet music to my ears. She was running after Josh and his blanket and it was so cute watching her run.

They're both in bed, I took a nice warm bath and I'm about to go read my book. Hopefully I'll be done with it soon.

Spidey Josh

Poor Kaitlyn. I feel so sorry for her. Her teeth are bothering her so bad. I was able to get a few giggles out of her this weekend, but she mostly wanted to be held.

She did have her first taste of ice cream and LOVED it! It probably felt really good on her gums too. She did have some bad gas in middle of the night, so hopefully it doesn't bother her too much.

I went out while Josh was napping and went grocery shopping. While at Wal-Mart I found a Spider Man costume for Josh. I brought it home and showed Jason and he liked it but the mask. I told him, do you really think Josh will wear the mask? He said, good point. So after Kaitlyn went to bed Jason decided to show Josh his costume. He LOVED it!!! He tried it on over his p.j.'s and didn't want to take it off. I told him he could wear it to bed, but we had to change his diaper and take off his jammies. He slept in it and when he got up this morning he was in such a good mood because he was still wearing his costume. The bad part, he doesn't want to take it off for school.

We did do a family outing yesterday. We took the recycling to the recycling center! I'm so proud of us. I need to call our current garbage company and find out if they're going to start recycling soon and if not, we're changing, because I hate throwing recycling stuff away. We took a lot of cardboard boxes, newspapers and glass. I want to start with the juice bottles, plastics, so maybe this time I'll do that.

That's all for now. Let's see what fun we can have today!

Awsome day

I had a great day with the kids. Kaitlyn wasn't too cranky and I got some smiles out of her. She's very independent and can entertain herself for the most part. I enjoyed watching her today.

Josh is such a mama's boy it isn't funny. He fell down today and scrapped up his knee. You think he broke his leg from the way he carried on all day. He wanted mommy to hold him and be there for him. He didn't want to share me with Kaitlyn, but that's nothing new.

They both enjoyed pizza right before bed time. Kaitlyn had the crust and sauce only. Josh wanted more than the 2 pieces I had, so I had to heat up a 3rd piece. This was a first for him. Usually he doesn't eat pizza. This is good. Maybe we'll someday get away from Chicky and French fries.

Jason went out and I'm about to head to bed. Hopefully tomorrow will be as uneventful as today. I will need to keep a diaper on Kaitlyn so she doesn't poop on the floor again. I also need to clean the tub. Poor baby girl! Mommy loves you though!!!

I forgot to write

I went out for dinner with my co worker and an employee and came home to kids fed and ready for bed. I have a great hubby! Both kids slept through the night and I was so relaxed that I watched some tv and forgot to write.

Kaitlyn's still drooling like a fool. She'd probably fill the bathtub with all the drool she produces these days. I feel so sorry for her. She hates the teething gel, but man does that help. We give her Tylenol, teething tablets, and teething gel and she's ready for bed. I would love to wave a wand and make all her teeth appear and cause her no pain! I think every mom wishes that.

Josh has been singing up a storm. He sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Baa Baa Black Sheep, and No More Monkey's Jumping on the Bed. I need to take a video of that.

I'll write more tonight after all the events that go on today at school and home.

Josh was sick

I got a call from daycare at lunch saying Josh was throwing up and to come get him. Poor little guy. I got there and he was asleep. I took him home and he never once got sick. We're hoping/thinking it was from his flu shot he got yesterday.

Kaitlyn was in a good mood, but these days she hates to go to bed. Jason got her down and Josh and I went to the store to buy her some soy milk. Thank goodness for coupons! I saved $1.50 and used up my gift card and paid only $1.53 for 2 half gallons of soy milk.

I got Josh to bed around 9pm and I took a shower and read for a bit. I'm tired, but not sleepy. Maybe I'll go read some more. Hopefully Kaitlyn will sleep all night. She got up twice and Josh woke up once. Will I ever get a full nights rest ever again?

Too tired

I got 5 hours of sleep last night because Kaitlyn thought it was play time at 1245am and 445am. Both Josh and I had clean bills of health at the doctor, so I can rest easily now.

Kaitlyn is teething badly, that's why she's up at all hours of the night. Poor thing. I know she has at least 3 teeth coming in, but there could be more.

Time to go do the dishes and go to bed.
