Thirteen Thoughts for Thursday

It's only Thursday????

1. Paige spends a lot of time in timeout.

2. Paige loves to climb on the end tables and up the back of the couch...hence, spending a lot of time in timeout.

3. C&P's new favorite activity is finger painting. Hey, if I let them paint with chocolate pudding, finger paint is a no-brainer!

4. C&P have painted a few times, but have only tasted finger paints once...cause & effect?!!?

5. I think I have a Target addiction...When we pulled into the parking lot the other day Cam yelled "Tar-get!"...I love that kid!

6. I'm still waiting for Paige to crawl out of her crib...

7. Cam stole one of Paige's many stuffed animals last night and brought it into his crib. I think he went to sleep with a smile on his face!

8. P has been asking for "pretties" lately, this means she wants her toes painted...she rocks!

9. Hi, do we love this weather????

10. I often wonder who would have been my dad's favorite (he would have had one, let's be honest). I figured it out...Paige! She walked around the whole back yard today picking up sticks. Anyone who knew my dad knows that he was all about kindle for the fire!

11. The next two weeks are going to be insane!! Another pumpkin patch this weekend, the Apple Orchard on Columbus Day, my birthday next Thursday (oh yeah, and my brother's...), dinner with friends and family next weekend, and Jamaica the following Thursday!!!

12. Maybe I should start preparing for Nana's stay...I see lists in my future...I love lists!

13. On a sadder note: This week has been tough. One of my students passed away as well as a very close family friend. It makes me grateful for those I have, and the time I have with them.
