Busy Times!

I was just talking with a friend at lunch about what I had to do this week - and she said "don't you ever get tired? How do you do it all?". I guess that is just life for me and my family. We like to be busy, but we treasure our "do nothing" time as well. Sometimes the best thing is to just not have anything planned, but then be spontaneous and do something fun. No pressure that way. Anyway, today I have a bunch of lessons and Eric has conferences in the PM so between the two of us and mom someone will be the Genni. I'm not exactly sure how dinner is going to get cooked or if my dishes will ever get done, but that's OK.

My daughter is so much fun, she is talking a ton now and likes to tell us about her day. Unfortunately she seems to hold grudges because it doesn't seem to matter that Wallace pushed her down a week and a half ago, she tells me about it every day. She also tells on each of us to the other one. If I'm in the shower, I'll get out and Genni says "daddy spankin me" which really means he either yelled at her or even just told her not to do something. It could even have been two days ago and she just remembered it, you never know. We have a dog and a puppy, so between the two of them we give a lot of "dog" commands. So now my daughter thinks that if she wants my attention she should call "mommy come here" and pat her legs. That part is funny, the bad part is that she says "mommy no!" just like I say "Wallace no!". I keep telling her I'm not a dog - she'll get it eventually.

The other new thing lately is that while your holding her she'll grab your cheeks between her hands and kiss you. It's so adorable, cause then she hugs your head really hard. Kids drive us crazy sometimes, but they are so precious. We keep hoping for another one, I'm sure it'll happen eventually (though frustrating to wait). Remind me when I'm sick and tired at the end of the day of teaching while being pregnant that I asked for this!

Well - back to my busy life....till next time!
