These past few weeks have been eventful and challenging for me! I feel like I am always so busy and on the run. I am so looking forward to a day with NOTHING planned, just stay home and do nothing not even cleaning. I have been to the doctor, dentist, track meets both high school and junior high, new beginnings, basketball meetings, work,dentist again with kids, ward council, more track meets. The list goes on and on plus the never ending job of cleaning, laundry, carpool etc. Patty reminded me that a coworker asked me awhile back at work what I do with all my time at home. I was offended at the time thinking does she just think I sit around and relax? Maybe I should have her read my blog....But with everything so busy I think the worst thing has been that we took Kaden's pacifier away. Rob had a big talk with him about being a big boy and when I came home one night Kade had thrown them all away in the garbage. I was shocked. I was motivated by jaymi's blog to just take it away so I had talked to rob about it and he took it upon himself to get rid of it. I think it has been harder for me than kade. He has had a difficult time going to bed and yesterday wouldnt take a nap, which is not a good thing. He needs his sleep! I just put him down a few minutes ago and pray that he falls asleep. He was a handful yesterday. We went out and bought him a new truck and trailer for being a big boy. So he came and told me a bit ago that he was ready for bed but insisted that he have his truck with him. At least he hasnt been screaming! Now I can go start the fun....cleaning! I can't really seem to get things done while he is awake because he wants to be too helpful. I never thougt I would gripe about that. He is really independant. So I end up doing things like laundry where he can put wet clothes in the dryer, loading the dishwasher etc. So now I of off to do toilets. I have some pictures to post, but have to wait for rob because I cant seem to find the pictures that I thought I downloaded. I still am learning how to be computer savvy. So maybe later I will post the pictures!

Crazy woman! I guess that is what happens when you have more then one kid and they are in school!! I hope things slow down for you! I am amazed with taking the pacifier away!! Kenna still needs hers at nap time and bed time but I am ok with just that! Plus I don't want to start a war with her just before the new baby gets here! She still needs her naps as well and it might make me crazy if she doesn't get one!! Congrats on taking it away!!:)
