......

Couple random things here:

1. Found another super groovy website for recipes. http://www.readyseteat.com

2. I did accomplish the other day rearranging Axton's room...and working in Zaidyn's room a little bit...and I did all her laundry today soooo that's gotta count for something right??

3. I brought Axton to storytime this morning at the library. Wasn't sure how he would do considering he's NEVER around other kids besides Dexter. He can't really play with Dexter yet since he's too young yet. At first Axton was in awe at all the kids and he just had the cheesiest smile ever and was having so much fun. Then as storytime went on, he just became a big ol bully! He was one of the youngest there but he wasn't afraid to go up to the 3 year old girls OR boys and try to push them! Where is he even getting that behavior!??!? I couldn't believe it! I kept telling him that he can NOT treat his friends like that..but he just thought it was funny. Oh boy. He definitely needs more time around kids his age so he can learn how to behave correctly. I know he's a boy and is going to act like that from time to time but jeesh. I tell you what. I am super strict on discipline and Axton doesn't get away with much of anything if anything at all (that he's not supposed to do of course) I have my way of teaching Axton right from wrong..and it seems to be the only way Axton responds and actually learns. With a room full of people (Moms and other kids) it feels super weird disciplining your kid in front of everyone. Like the other Moms are looking at you to see how you are going to respond to your kids behavior. I felt on one hand that they were judging me because of Axton's meany pants behavior, but on the otherhand I felt like out of all people on the earth they would be the ones LEAST likely to judge since they are Mom's too and know exactly how it is. All I know is next week at story time if Axton starts that business again it is bye bye story time. I'll take his little butt right out of there. On a good note, it was SOOOO cute because there was a room full of kids running around, which means a room full of Moms and everyone was singing the wheels on the bus etc etc. Axton must have gotten super excited about the song and saw me from across the room and got the BIGGEST smile, I waved to him and he ran from across the room with his arms up in the air and gave me a hug!!!!!!!!!!!! He is just starting his "affection" stage where he is learning how to give hugs and kisses and boy does it melt my heart.

4. I started watching the show Lost. I wasn't going to...but I finally gave in. It was either Lost (which was recommended by Jessie Walton) or Brothers and Sisters (which was recommended by my Mother) I decided to go with Lost and have gotten a couple episodes in and not quite sure what I think about it. I mean its not a deadbeat show because if that was the case I would have stopped watching it. But I don't get the monster creatures. Like, is this some kind of Jurassic park kind of show?

5. I probably say this every week but I can NOT believe that I will be 29 weeks on Friday. I am almost to single digits as far as how much time is left. OH EM GEE.
