today i was supposed to go on a walk. i was going to go and see some friends but we didn't.
we stayed home instead. i am finding that i am not a truly social being.
i tried to get my dishes done once again... it does take a brave heart to do them... i feel like a gladiator when they have been conquered! and i feel to sing... now we are free...
instead we stayed home and read books, navigated some tantrums and are still trying to solve the "how to share with your younger brother" phase we are in... i tried playing woody and buzz with asher but he kept switching which ones i could play with (i think i was not getting the job done right so he kept switching them hoping i would finally understand how to be woody or buzz)... isaac was just plain tired! and kept snuggling and sniffing as if to say... please... please... all i want is sleep (it is a priceless commodity, hard to come by in this house... it seems someone is always trying to wake up someone else from their coveted naps)...isaac almost fell asleep in his high chair until i gave him some food... at which point he perked right up and started wolfing the food down... which makes me think he may have possibly been hungry too... asher on the other hand has been begging for popsicles all morning (for the past 3-5 days, you lose track)... i made some new concoction (macaroni with taco meat in it) which he would NOT eat... he preferred his cold left over macaroni and cheese to what i had made...so i ate it and it was good... i would have preferred eating salad... but oh well... so much for my diet... we then read books after lunch and the animal noises i was making made isaac laugh... so then asher started making funny sing song noises which made both of them laugh... a sweet moment... although it made my book reading obsolete and unheard :)
we then went into the bedroom and i sang songs and persuaded (is it still persuasion if your toddler is throwing a tantrum?) asher that he needed to take a nap while isaac begged me for one... they are BOTH sleeping and have been asleep for at least an hour and a half... my house is mostly clean... except the dishes of course...it feels SO good...
later we will go on a walk with lorna while josh is at school... if i am not too tired
