Today is one month until the
5K and Family Fun Walk
and I still owe a post that I said I would do last year.
About the experience there.
I am in the process of getting Team Shirts ordered.
I have created a shirt image to use.
Yes, I created it with the help of
free apps and images to get the works together
nothing real savvy but yes I did it.
We are also less than 2 week from our Logan
turning 5!!
5 years!
I always have so much running through my head
I want to write about.
If only I could attach a word processor to my brain
so I could "type" while thinking
and
doing everything else I try to do.
I need some 36 hour days where I get 12 straight hours of sleep
and the
kids get a few more so I can get some things done without
being distracted from them.
They are growing up way to fast.
We have our Bitty actually excited
and
anticipating his birthday.
This is the first time in his 5 years to
acknowledge it.
In past years I have gone out of the box
to do something on his birthday
that he would enjoy
and
show us he was aware of the day.
Wow..that looks selfish
when typed out.
That we did it for us?
Let me try again,
so it was a day and time
we all could really share together
and
see all of us
enjoying it.
So if people think I go overboard
or
as I have heard their comments
of criticism.
Their kids enjoy the day,
they have fun
they are ready for cake
and
blow out candles and sing.
Logan does that now
at birthdays.
He did start out screaming during the singing
and
get even louder because
the candles were lit
and
very quickly blown out.
He would stay far from the group
but would
bee line through and then
go back to his space.
He now may do that at times
but stays closer
and if
someone chases him
he LOVES that.
His best interaction with other kids
is to chase them or they chase him
(he takes turns)
whether they are on their feet
or on a bike.
We need to find a gift for him.
He has all he wants.
Heck, Santa brought
a train table to us December 2009.
It gets used daily for hours.
BEST EVER.
It is in need of some TLC
but it is a must keep.
But here I am scrambling for birthday ideas,
party work,
shirt orders,
some "graphic design" (haaaa..yeah right..just simple not impressive work)
Bathrooms need scrubbed,
clothes washed and put away,
sheets changed,
restocking the bread supplies in our home,
some things need a few sewing repairs (not a professional
there by any stretch either, but can get the job done)
I also need to run!
I also need to run!
I ran Ella's race last Saturday.
I need to build up my endurance
in prep for Angels Among Us.
I spent a lot of time psyching myself out.
The more I practice
the more I "train" myself not to psych myself out
and
build up endurance. :)
But all while wanting to sit back relax and not miss anything.
Oh the acts of juggling...
In the mean time random photos of last week and weekend.
 |
| Ella's Race..the two finish photos and our Sweet Boys with the Chickfila Cow and "snow trees" as our D likes to call them. |
 |
| Aidan's Lego Creation complete with his eye brow raise, and two dirty Littles. This is a massive feat for Logey and have shared them with his OT. DD he would sleep in the mud if we let him. :) |

| The perfect weekend night, in PJ's early ready to relax, D likes to climb on everything and everyone and a Father Son moment of teaching how to fold paper foot ball for some fun. |
