Ramblings
well here I go again
My 3 oldest are at school and my baby sleeps in the morning
I should feel like I have more time and I usually do.
I got released from primary also so that should make me feel less stressed.
I don't know why I am not more on top of things.
Lila is out growing some of her shenanigans. That is nice!
Tessa is out growing some of her high pitched screaming. That is nice!
Maisy is almost 6 and is helpful and independant.
Jenna is 8 now and does really well in school when she trys.
Jeff and I are wondering how long he can work at his current job.
I am happy when I talk myself into it.
Sometimes I need to be talked into it though.

Well I made it through September.
I got released from primary and Lila is gone to school every morning so I all the sudden have all this time. I am not what I am doing with it yet but there really is more on my own time. Lila is going to dance class with my friend Becky as a teacher and she is actually doing better than I thought she would. She behaves as well as the worst behaved dancer. I have 3 girls on the bus and that is fun. I have about 45 minutes of pure craziness and then silence(until Tess wakes up).
We are still trying to finish the landcaping in our yard and we got the gift of nice weather to make it a little easier.

well here I go again
did not think I would like this
Today was another interesting day
Highlights include:
cleaning up a bottle of spilled antihistimine
washed marker off Lila (crayola are actually washable mr.sketch not so much)
(I guess childproof doesn't mean Lila proof)
6 trips to the potty only 1 success
mopping my floor in 3 stages
mowing my lawn (I mean weeds) in under 10 minutes
1 solo trip to the park with only 1 peed pants and a very messy Lila (cupcakes)
Just another day

Ok this is something that I thought I would never do but I like the idea of it being journaling that I can do on my computer.
Today we played tag team church going because Lila has a mystery fever.
When Lila gets a fever it is actually kind of peaceful around here. I guess that isn't very nice but it is the truth. She gets purple hands and feet when she is ferverish.
The first time it happened I freaked out and had her at emergency but now I know it is just the way her body fights a fever.
I am feeling very grateful for a very easy baby. Tessa is such a joy she smiles at everyone and she is so easy going. I often find her asleep on the floor when she has been playing. Sometimes I forget about her. She is incredibly vocal too. I was at the Canadian Down syndrome conference and ended up on the front row as the speaker was very popular. She was especially talkitive and the Speaker would acknowledge her musings I kept telling her to be quiet and he kept reassuring me that she was fine in front of probably 150 people. After 20 minutes of this he asks if he can hold her so I agreed and he kept speaking. He held her for probably 15 minutes. He really seemed to enjoy her. A few people took pictures as the little interaction was sweet.
I just feel lucky!
