YOW! I Feel Good!
Ahh it is a bright, beautiful Monday morning. Despite the fact I got little sleep last night between designing and my darling baby boy, I feel good. Real good. This post was almost called “Manic Monday … Ooo Weee Oooo ….”, due to a rough start on Becs part, but alas all is well in our corner of the woods again.
We had an amazing weekend. We were crazy busy. Even social. I know. Shocking.
Look at my soccer girl. Doesn’t she rock the house? Becs was so bursting with excitement about the big soccer practice that upon arrival she got a tad spooked. There was a lot of new kids, couches with a lot of instructions and only two YELLOW balls. The rest were merely white and paled in
comparison to the YELLOW ball. In fact the YELLOW ball became a security object for Becca. In the end she did quite well. It is fun to watch her, trip through the class, all social norms whooshing over her “my mom stays at home” head. When asked to head to the end of the line, she stared blankly at the coach then proceeded to jump ahead of everyone {repeatedly} to kick the ball. J cruised over and explained then she was all down with the line concept. It is funny what we take for granted. We do not experience many “lines, wait your turn in sequence” here at home.
Ethan has gone from, a tentative walker, to a walk all the time, who needs to crawl, kid. He also has cut back his nursing throughout the day (much to my dismay, mind you he made up for it last night, the kid is a trickster). He has such a great passion for all that he adores. It is so cool.
For about five minutes we thought we might be pregnant again. We are not even sure that another baby is in our future, but I have to admit I was totally bummed that I was baron. Like somehow I lost something that wasn’t even there. J of course was mystified by my behaviour and was extremely relieved. That annoyed me beyond belief. The cad.
I am just bursting with energy and ideas. I love it. I do hope to sit still long enough to catch up with you all. My attention span has been spotty at best as of late.
How was your weekend?

I’m glad your having a better Monday! Isn’t is just WONDERFUL to see them start walking! I love that baby walk.
Ya know, I remember when I used to think I was pregant, and I was so scared, then excited, than sad when I wasn’t. Now, it would be a MIRACLE! We are both fixed LOL
I bet the energy and creativity are coming from the Spring weather! I love Spring!

Look at them go! James is fairly bad at the line thing still! You would think all that Disneyland waiting they would be champs. You see, they know how, but only if there’s tons of people and a really good ride at the end. He’s improved though. Amazing what soccer is good for, you know, besides an hour of pure running around.
Glad you’re feeling good

I know I’d feel that way too, even if we hadn’t been trying to get pregnant. There’s always a small part that mourns what might have been.
Men just don’t get that.

Glad you had such a wonderful weekend and are feeling so good! Becca does look like she’s enjoying soccer! I tried soccer w/Kayla right after Joe left in Sep and it didn’t go over so well LOL She wasn’t interested in really following along to any of the instructions!

My weekend was beyond crazed - birthday parties, more running, soccer, political erections….
But that photo of Becca? I want that on Looking Into! Please submit it to Looking Into, the photoblog I run with Jenn in Holland. I just love the lighting.
