Second attempt this week! woot

No No No.
No No No
It’s more effective if you say it in threes right? Wyatt walks around the house shaking his head and saying “ No No No”.
I think he is mimicking daddy! As I think of it though most of the big people in his life tend to say “no no no” OR the ever popular OH NO Buddy.
Wyatt is turning out words like a lil Mr. Webster these days. I believe he can say anything he wants to now when he’s willing =).

The rest of us? Glad you asked….
We have too many irons in the fire right now. So many that I’ve decided to pursue a mommy’s helper to be here with me a few hours a week so I can focus on writing all while not completely neglecting my babies. I am seeking an energetic student from BSU to come to our home and play, chase and entertain Wyatt. Before you judge me consider that I think it’s stinks some too. I would love nothing more than to be able to spend every moment engaged with my babies. The battle I’m fighting though is that I’ve started a doctoral degree program and DAMN IT I want to finish!
So it’s go time and I am making the choice to sacrifice a bit of my heartfelt desire to be all moms all the time in order to achieve this academic goal.
Eric??? So happy for him. He’ll be finishing his degree Dec 2011! He is applying to jobs across the country. (Several right here in Indiana). Although it is hard for me not ot be type A about his job search and the potential “move” it might imply I am trying my best to leave this one to a higher power. ( not like I have another choice really ? Right?)
For now I will say his success in this Endeavour could be bitter sweet.

Wade! 4 months old on 3-26! He’s just beginning to want to stand while being supported. Very strong lil roller and scooter though! Also doing really well at not wanting to EAT all night long. I’m not sure if he’s an easy baby or if we just know what we’re doing this time around. ( a little more anyway).

It's so hard not to put on the mommy guilt, isn't it!? Gesh, a doctorate!? I say go for it girl! How many people in their lives accomplish something like that? The advantage you have is that your kids won't really remember you spending all this time writing...they're too young. I don't know about you, but I love to watch other people play with my kids. I feel like I usually "play" the same way or the same things. It's good for kids to be exposed to a variety of "play."

you go girl!!
