and away we go

phew.
 we are in total survival mode.
peanut is not loving kindergarten.
 in fact, he doesn't even want to put clothes on in the morning to go.
but.....we are working on learning to love school.
yesterday was music class.
that was a winner.
now, if we could not have tears tomorrow.
that would be a winning day.

little bit love pre-k.
he has made friends with the most rambunctious kid in his class.
the teachers are going to have to watch them closely.....a tussle is only a matter of time. did i mention the friend is about five inches taller and about twenty pounds bigger?
yeah, that's my little bit.... small but tough.

speaking of tough: teachers saw his head bleeding.
that is how they knew he had bumped it.
one stitch; one tie.
no novocaine.
no tears.
not a single one.

so if i could get one to stop crying and let the other one know that is is okay to cry....even for blood and stitches.....we might survive this year.

Wow! One tough cookie! - Your boys remind me of mine SOOOO much it's crazy! :) The irony is that M has had stitches twice, but L hasn't had any...yet. I was so sad to miss your phone call. When can we chat?

and we will be out numbered....

as of monday, i am through my first trimester with sweet baby #3. the sweet children will out number the adults come the beginning of march. as john likes to comment about my day to day coping skills, "her body is betraying her" as i adjust to pregnancy and surviving with two small children. i still can't find our flash drive to upload pictures....i'll work on it. it requires clearing off the computer desk which exists in the middle of the living room due to the plaster/drywall work being done to patch up the hole from the toilet leak. supposedly the new hardwood floors are supposed to arrive this week.....which means we could potentially move out of the office and back into our bedroom in a couple of weeks!!! the small pleasures in life!

more tidbits

i find it interesting....... .......how the two boys are in sync already. apparently we had not weathered the worst of operation big boy-no paci....he cried for almost an hour. what we thought would be an early bedtime was not....then asher (who was supposed to sleep until 2) woke up at midnight only to be followed by big brother 10 minutes later "scared." .......how 20 & 30 years olds (including myself) walk around the locker room delicately covered up by the towel that is slightly too small to cover my rumpus..... and yet the 50 & 60 years old strut around with no shame. nora ephron claims that the things that we things we hate about out bodies in our 20s will be the things we long for in our 50s. funny how that works...maybe i'll lose my abandon and sit in the sauna naked as a jaybird..... naw!!! .......how fun sitting on the kitchen counter while daddy cooks is for a two year old. .......how much i want to cut my hair. .......how excited i am to have gott...
