\"Kids<\/a>

Lex was reading a Magic School Bus book about dinosaurs and acting out scenes with a toy dinosaur.<\/p><\/div>\n

It is a beautiful day today. The kids are napping. Lex called in “tired” to school this morning and stayed home and played SUPER sweetly with Eve all morning. I’m pretty nauseous today and it was nice that they entertained each other so well. I think the time change may have affected him more that it has in the past. Or more that I remember it affecting him in the past anyway. They’ve been going to bed at about the same time each night, but he isn’t falling asleep until 9:30 or 10pm and then I have to wake him up for school every morning! Ugh. Last night it was 9:30 before he fell asleep, then when we went in to check on him at 11pm we discovered a wet bed. He threw a horrible tantrum in the middle of the night because he didn’t want to change his PJs and then continued the tantrum when he discovered I’d thrown his blanket into the wash. It was almost an hour before he was back to sleep. I decided then that he could skip school today and get caught up on his sleep. Guess what? Eve woke him at 6am anyway! But he wanted to stay home so I let him. It was nice. They entertained each other so nicely, playing “Mr. Tomato Head” and building a fort and throwing a party for pink baby. It’s always someone’s birthday around here! Lex even read books to Eve and helped her sound out words.<\/p>\n

\"Quilt<\/a>Now they are napping, the sun is shining, and I am working on my new hobby. Quilting! :) Baking makes me fat and knitting aggregates the carpal tunnel, so I thought I’d try quilting. After two days of trouble-shooting my sewing machine I’m finally on my way! I’m making a modified “around the world” pattern, under careful guidance from my friend who already knows how to quilt :) Basically it’s shades of white and purple squares, like a checkerboard. I’ll let you know how it comes out.<\/p>\n
