I went in to get Laura up this morning. I opened the door only 6 inches. As soon as Laura saw me, “I want a pop tart!”. Not even a Mommy first. Then she prompted me to ask questions. “What you want?” “What eat?” (What do you want? What do you want to eat?) Me, […]
This morning I tried out something new with Laura. We worked on some letter sounds (s, a, and t). My friend Mandy gave me a great book to use that has actions for each letter sound. So we did those, and then I wrote out the word sat and showed her how to sound it […]
Laura brought Robert her Little Golden Bible Storybook. “Read God” Guess who gave in.
Laura has already figured out how to play the parents. She was watching a movie with me and wanted an afternoon snack. I never answered. Robert happened to come in the house right then. “Ask Daddy!” Too smart for her own good I tell ya. The movie we are watching is Snow White and the […]
I love spending time at Mom and Dad’s. I love that Laura and Warren will have a great relationship with them. I love that it gets me out of the area for a few days so I don’t go stir crazy. However, I don’t love the adjustment when we get back. It is nice when […]
We took the kids to see Santa tonight. I had Robert stay in line with Warren while I took Laura in to see him from a distance. I figured she might do better if she can see him from a distance before I ask her to sit on his lap. When it was our turn, […]
I am going to take a minute to brag up my daughter! I got out her board puzzles this morning. I keep them put away for a couple of reasons. 1. I don’t loose piece this way 2. They stay fresh and fun to play with for her. Well, she did each puzzle on its […]
So a bit of back story before Laura’s story starts. Mom fell and hurt her knee on Tuesday. When we got here yesterday, Mom had a knee brace on. However, it was on under her pants so Laura couldn’t see it. Last night Laura wanted to sit on her grandma’s knee. Grandma told her that […]
We had a good day. Laura only took an hour and a half nap, but she was in a fairly decent mood. I made the mistake of telling her before nap that we’d be going to coffee after nap. That set her up for excitement. She started off with “I want coffee!” over and over […]
We had a pretty good weekend around here. On Saturday Robert made waffles for breakfast. After breakfast was cleaned up I went shopping, without kids or a husband! I saw that Kohls was having a sale on just about everything. I got about half of her Christmas shopping done. I also picked up a few […]
