why do kids remind you all the time

Okay, it's like 90 something degrees and steaming hot. You know this. We all know this. Why do the kids have to complain and remind you like fifty eleven times that it's hot? Ah Summer, I so don't like it for the weather!

Get out and play!

I think radio has gone down tremendously over time playing really inappropriate things you would never want your kids to listen to. Now the other morning I heard something that was actually the best thing I could have heard in a long time. The radio personality was saying how we were finally going to see sunshine after so many weeks of off and on rain and clouds. He then goes on to suggest that it was the perfect weather for the kids to get out and play. He later corrects himself and says that in fact kids should get off their butts, put the remote down, the gaming controller down and go outside and play something. Kickball, soccer, jump rope, basketball, run, jog...anything to get active! He said that kids these days don't do that any more. It is so true. I am pretty glad that my girls (even at 12 & 14) still LOVE being outside playing volleyball, basketball and whatever else they feel like. You have to beg them to come in some evenings. I think children of today are really missing out on the good stuff. Sometimes as parents we have to get out and play with our children.

I'm back

I have not posted for a while now and with good reason. William is officially walking. I really did not talk about it much because honestly I was getting annoyed with being asked about it. He just wasn't ready. According to his pediatrician, I worry too much...walking at 14 months is perfectly normal she says. With having a new walker comes a big job. I can't take my eyes off of him for even a minute! He can't be trusted at all. I am literally running behind him for most of the day. Moments that I can just plop him in the playpen for about a half hour are the best! This kid's energy is non-stop and I am trying my hardest to keep up. I promise to post more often. I would have posted some photos of him walking but it's nearly impossible at this rate when it's just the two of us! I hope you all had a great extended weekend :)
