I'm mentally done with this bedrestedness-Ok, not that I've really spent all that time laying down but last night I'd finally had it. Can't take the mess anymore. The piles of paper, mail and books on the island and table, the messy floor, the bathroom...do I dare even go there? So last night I started cleaning-with the worst of it all, not the basement although I hope to clean that up someday soon, but the bathroom. It's a small room, I don't move around much so I think it qualifies for taking it easy.
The weather the past couple of days has been beautiful the sun being out and it's actually warm-if I was a really good mom we'd actually get outside to enjoy it before the sun is starting to set. In an effort to clean out the carport a little, I brought in a couple of empty boxes that contained chairs and made a couple of tunnels for the girls. They had fun going through them and then we decided to decorate them. Good thing we played in them first, after decorating they will no longer stay up by themselves.
Last but certainly not least, McKenna's teacher Ms Robinson came over for a quick parent-teacher conference today. It was fabulous to hear that McKenna is doing so well. She will sit for the full 15 minute circle time, she's engaging with her classmates, whom are all boys. Not so much the rowdy boys, but she's really taken to the quiet boys, especially Owen. Ms Robinson did say they are working on just hi-5's and short, "1,2,3 stop" hugs. Something we are also working on at home with her hugging Tyler. McKenna is such a girl. She also said that we need to re-evaluate her goals as she is doing so well they need to set them a little higher. After last Spring's evaluation and my frustration it's a breath of fresh air to hear that she's grown up so much. They said she even uses the potty at school...for M&M's but still any progress is still progress. Keep it up McKenna!
