dyk Sean has crossed over to the world of appreciating a good checklist for day to day routines
dyk he has been using the morning checklist and commented that it does indeed releive some anxiety pressure to remember everything and get it all done
dyk the kids can read the list and they have started taking care of their own things -- b/c they recognize their name and the mornings have been smooth and easy and CLEAN (they had been trashing the house, the kitchen, leaving clothes around, toys out, TV on, food on table -- ugh!)
dyk and so I have them printed and they get ready, and when it's all checked off they are 100% ready to go
dyk LOVE IT
dyk I heard Ellie in her room say "what's that sound?"
dyk it was THUNDER -- not sure she's ever heard thunder before?
dyk I did tell y'all a few days ago (wed I think?) she woke up and decided to like people and start talking. HAHA Might've been thursday.
dyk she has no use for "baba, kitty, mama, go) she says Who's this? What's that? What's that sound? Why you do that? "Wah-dew-do-dat?"
dyk it's ADORABLE
dyk I'd video but she's vehemently opposed to being taped. LOL
DYK I find it is almost completely necessary for me to have things written down anymore...too much to simply remember
DYK so you get to sleep in while they take care of everything in the list?
dyk right now, the laundry could be considered DONE b/c none of it needs my attention
dyk I also have a batch of cupcakes in the oven (doubled egg to give the gluten free flour a little lighter texture) and the dishes are done
dyk the tarp I secured over the engine is keeping it dry. go me. lol
dyk Abi comes in and I check her hair, or put in clips or braids of ponies and I "sign off" on her outfit :-)
dyk Ellie sleeps until 9:30 or so.
dyk but Ellie is happy and playing and ate a mini cupcake so maybe she will be up until we get Abi at 3:40 then take maybe another 1 hour nap and be up from 5:00-7:30 before bedtime
DYK it is just me and the fur babies up in the morning...Chad and Loran don't get up until well after 8am and I am already at work by then
dyk fun!! I love the rain.
dyk my cupcakes came out perfect --- there is one I am about to take a picture of -- b/c it's DOUBLE The size of the others -- haha
dyk everyone's an over acheiver
dyk so we put his clothes in our room the night before and he just slips out the door and doesn't need to go back in
dyk last night he was in our bed for a bit -- then Sean sent him back to bed
dyk Dek gets up to potty and comes to OUR room rather than going back to HIS bed
