Hello from the land of the lost. Not much new to report here - pretty much the same stuff, except multiplied by 12. My hair is falling out from all the stress - literally. My house is in total disarray - I realize I store way too many things - knick knacks, this and that. I so look at houses with a minimalist feel to them, and I love them and wonder how I could ever achieve such a state of zen.
Work is busy, been working late hours.
Owen's doing good - but man, two weeks ago he was a TOTAL bear. He was eating a lot more, too, so we figured it was a growth spurt. In which case, I cannot complain; I need that boy to grow all he can. But he's pretty much back to normal now.
Ah, the funniest thing in his repetoire (aside from demanding to sleep ... NAKED) is that he now wants to prove that he can pee standing up. *sigh* So he'll go to school, go to the toilet, pull his pants and underwears down and instead of sitting, pees standing up. Which is fine ... as long as he's not distracted. If someone walks by, he turns to see what's going on ... Yep, turning his stream along with him.
I'm trying to help teach him aim by putting rocks in the grass in the backyard that he can shoot for. I gotta say, when he focuses, he's got pretty damn good aim.
