Foamy

We are happy to have Jason home from his couple days in Seattle! He was even off a couple days after getting home which was a treat.
Our week has been pretty good...though today we ran into a problem because Jason worked but I had a mandatory class at work...I asked my faithful friend Becky, and of course she came to the rescue! My mom took the kids for the morning, B picked them up around lunchtime and had them until I was done at 4pm. Then we went back to my parent's house where I ran while my mom hung with the kids, ate a fantastic dinner and had sugarfree berry pie for dessert. DELICIOUS!!!!!!! Seriously. My mom is turning into Rachel Ray. But TASTY super duper HEALTHY rachel ray. Thanks Momma Joe.
Gavin and Ezekiel LOVE playing with gloves on...I bring them home a pair from work and its fun for hours. Its great.
At Ikea they have a "foamer" for 2.99, I think...and if you put a little milk in your cup, foam it up, then add your milk, its like you've made your own latte. Yum.
Tuesday night Dan and Judy offered to babysit and J and I went out to dinner and coffee. We had a great time together and I discovered that green tea lattes are FANTASTIC.
That's about it for us. I have been doing "school" stuff with G here and there. Nothing too structured yet. I'm feeling a little bit of pressure, but keep reminding myself : ITS PRESCHOOL NOT COLLEGE. He'll be fine if I didn't do a thing. I really believe that. BUT...I want to teach him things....I'm going to get my pictures and stuff that I got in Bangladesh and teach him about that country first. As for Ezekiel, he has actually been a bit more challenging for us lately. He seems to be really pushing the limits with us. He has such a different personality than G that I have to constantly modify my disciplines for him because what works for G does not work for E. Something great is he is doing all things toilet-wise actually IN the toilet. Good news for those of us who actually do not enjoy large smelly things in undies.......enough said. Good job Ez! And V is just beautiful and superb as ever. She's sitting up on her own here and there, but still a bit wobbly and rolls all over when she wants to get to something. Ok, I'm kind of rambling. Better stop for now!
Cheers.
