At Play

This morning Preston and I played truck. He would push the truck to me and me to him. We had a so much fun and on our walk with Lucy we found a beetle on the ground and with no hesitation Preston picks up the beetle and starts to play with it. I freak out thinking he might get bit by the beetle. I over reacted. Later in the day we hit the beach, we did not go prepared, we did not stay long. We stopped by the tank on the way to the Salem common to play a little more. J

Happy

The last couple of days have been hard for me, it all started on friday night where I could not sleep, felt cold not well on saturdays ride and called it short and came home and slept, sunday felt a little better so I went for short run but did not feel well after, drove to see the fam on fathers day by then I was feeling a little better, monday is when everything turned for the worse, the morning was I knew I did not feel great but the day just got worse and I just need to survive the day. Preston was very understanding, He was great and gave me the strength and motivation to get through the day. When Holly came home it was a relief, it enabled me to be sick and to take care of myself. Holly was also home on tuesday this was a god send I was still a little sick by 9am I knew things have turned for the better but I was just exhausted and need to rest and she enabled be to do so. Thank You. By the evening I was eating again and gaining my energy back. wednesday I was in good moods and feeling healthy once again. no work outs planned just me and the Bubs having fun, my appeitte not fully back but close, had a full dinner which was nice since I just had fasted for 2 days. thursday is the day to get back to my work outs play with the bubs as much as I can since mommy stayed home for interviews she get the bubs when she wants. so I am much happier being sick showed me something about life how to make it easier to enjoy it and live it the best you can. it was a good thing I did get sick. j

Growth

Preston is getting his own ideas. There are thing he wants. Things he wants to do, but being only sixteen months the world is not ripe for the taking and he does not understand why. J

A day of Trucks

In the past few weeks Prestons new world has been Truck. So we have had a blitz on all the construction in our area. We watched them move earth up at the Y, repair the side walks on our street. Any truck on the road will turn his little head. So we got him a book of trucks at the Barnes & Noble, he has not put it down yet. Truck Love. J

The pooo master

Going on 16 months and the boy has a handle on the potty. Sort of kinda knows the potty. He knows where the poo goes and to wave good bye when it is flushed. Today I come home from being lost to hear Preston had his first potty pooo.
While getting Preston 's bath ready Holly looks to see Preston what Preston is up to. She finds him peeing on the floor so she pops him onto the potty and say pee in the potty. She goes back to the bath and seconds later Preston is squat on the floor with two little poo's. To her surprise he picks up one poo and places it in the potty. Holly follows his lead and then into the big potty. As it is flushed away Preston waves good bye. The boy is getting to know his potty. Bye bye diapers. J

Weekend

Holly saw Preston play tucks this weeekend and more so grow a little. There are times when your child grows and you say "wow where has the time gone" and your child is 13 and then there are times where it happens right in-front of you. This was that weekend for Holly, the first time weekend. They went to the beach and made sun castles, swimming and blowing bubbles in the pool, kick kick kick, swim swim swim at the Y, stories stories stories and a double book thrown in, walks with the dog. A weekend to remember. j
