Damn. I seem to be very bad at this “blogging” thing! I’ve been super busy! Lil’ Jams and DJ C went to my folks’ place the week before last and so I was SUPER busy doing NOTHING! I had plans to sleep late but would be wide awake by 6am. I planned to have long baths at night but after washing I would lay back, take a deep breath and think “What the fuck do people normally do in the bath for so long?” So 20min I would be dressed and ready for bed! I planned on not cooking at all that entire week but ended up making food we never make anymore because the kids don’t dig it…

I also missed them terribly! I joined them on the Friday and they turned from little sweet angels to utter feral, whiney children! Right in front of my folks’ eyes! They were telling me how good they had been the whole week. I was then reminded of a story I read where they say that your kids act up when you’re around because you’re their safe space. They are comfortable with expressing their emotions fully when you’re around. I don’t know if this is true or not but I’m 100% believing this is why.

Dj C

DJ C is going through a ‘No!”, clingy phase. Everything is answered with a ‘No!”, even when it’s something he actually wants. You can see his facial expression change once he realizes he just vetoed something he wanted. Then it’s tears because he now wants it.

Lil Jams

This morning as Lil Jams was picking out his clothes for the day and dressing himself, telling me about how he punched a shark and is going to buy me and Husband a black Toyota, I realized that he is growing up so fast! Just the other day he was a little baby in the NICU and now he’s a big brother that doesn’t understand colour coordination yet…

Loving and cherishing my boys, even though less than 12 hours ago they were making me bat shit crazy, gets me through the day!
