Sunshine

ITS FINALLY A NICE DAY!!

I feel like this summer has been days full of too HOT or rain....am I the only one?

It's Wednesday, but I keep thinking its Friday.  The kids are being crazy about taking naps. Ive put Kenzlie down three times now.  The 1st time she drank to much water and started a coughing fit, the second time she was just screaming and talking as loud as possible, go in to check on her and she took her diaper off, threw it out of the crib with her shorts, and peed all over.  Got her and the bed cleaned up and put her back down.  She's still not sleeping.  Kypton has gotten up to use the bathroom at least three times, complained of being hungry, had a snack and is still playing in our room NOT napping. He confuses being tired with hungry.  See, he is like his Mom. Not enough sleep makes my stomach hurt and he is the same way. This is just this afternoon after getting home from the store and playing outside.

Let me hop back to last week and VBS for Kypton. It started off a little rocky because he hated drop off and would get super nervous when we got to his classroom.  After day three it went great, so much in fact we checked on him early Thursday and he was being ornery with one of the teachers.  It was one of the young helpers, pretty sure he had his 1st crush.  She was telling him bye as she wasn't going to be there for the last day and he wanted a hug AND a kiss. Haha, at least he shows affection.



While Kypton was in school Kenzlie got Mommy time for the first three days.  We went for a walk, colored, checked out the pond at Jordan Creek, did a little reading, and just enjoyed girl time.  That doesn't happen often.  Thursday and Friday, Dan joined us.  We had a tropical sno date at Jordan Creek and walked around the pond, and a Panera Date with cookie dessert at the Mall.  Lots of fun for the little one.  She had fun until her teeth started hurting so Daddy brought us home and then went  back to pick up Kypton.

In all that crazy, Dan is still incredibly busy at work, which is great for their team.  He was given a raise, and offered a position he has been wanting.  However, He didn't take it!  He's excited his boss knows what he wants to do, now just to be patient to get all the details exactly where he wants them to be.  I'm proud of his hard work and everything he does to better himself as a business man, husband, and father.

I was a single Mom for most of the weekend.  Let me just say, IT WAS AWEFUL. I don't know how single parents do it.  The good days, okay, they are good days.  I know they outweigh the bad days, but seriously.  The bad days, are BAD.  I started counting down to bedtime at like four.  Neither of the kids napped and they were cranky, it was too hot to be outside, it was just not a pretty sight in our house.  This week has been much better now that our schedule is back to normal. I've started a Blog focusing on helping others in their faith and fit journey.  I'm excited to share what I'm doing to help others and hopefully learn a lot from my readers as well.

This week, we're working on potty training with Kenzlie, it's going miserably. Kenzlie has managed to color on our pantry door with crayons and our bedroom wall with permeant marker, and white board markers all over her arms and legs. She's a bit on the ornery side. Kypton is just as crazy. Keeping them both busy is key, but sometimes I just have to sit back an watch it all. Parenthood is just a crazy roller coaster sometimes.

This weekend we have a family reunion for Dans side.  All the cousins will be there and were excited to see everyone. The last time we went to one Kypton was just learning to walk so it will be great to catch up with everyone!

Hope you all have a great rest of the week (the end is in sight!)

Love,
The Buchholz Family
