Wednesday: not working

I didn't have to work this morning, which was lovely.  I got quite a bit of house work done, but also relaxed.  Tornado has finally realized that I have a nice lap too and has sat on it more often.  Not as much as Horizon sits with Ben, but we're working on it.

Joshua: 50-55 months

50 months

51 months:
He was only willing to do puppy faces this month.

52 months:

53 months:

54 months:

55 months:

The things of note (which are harder to remember when I do five months at a time) are:
*Grey Bear is no longer the preferred lovie, but it is the Pokeball from Great Wolf Lodge.
*He still has his band on from Great Wolf Lodge, over a month later.
*He always tells me that he had hamburgers for lunch at school.

Tuesday: bathroom conversations

I was in the restroom at Hope today and a non-college person started talking to me.  It was as though she knew me, but I really didn't know who she was.  We started talking a bit and I finally found out that she is one of the accounting professors.  (Keep in mind that most of my students are accounting majors.) 

She had great things to say!  How the students that came through my class knew so much more about excel than those that didn't.  How the four that are currently in the class have made such leaps and bounds forward as they've progressed through my class. 

Anyway, the conversation came at a good time as there are going to be many changes next semester due to a new book.  I think we're going to meet sometime in May so that hopefully we can better understand what the other teaches and how the classes could better interact.

Nights: fort

Isaac and Joshua are still in their fort.  They often talk too much but I figure it's good bonding.

(They're in there...they're just hard to see.)

Sunday:snow

Do you know what really bothers me?  TV shows or movies that have snow but actors that are not properly clothed.  Who does anything snow related without gloves or mittens?  Snow is cold and they should at least be cold when making snowballs or cleaning off the car.

Friday: puppy, cat, eyes

Last night before bedtime Joshua wanted a drink...sure, no problem.  I was reading with Isaac, and when I looked up a moment later he was putting a towel on the floor.  Huh...he must have spilled.  Well, at least he was taking care of it.  I look up a few moments later, only to watch him drink from a wide brimmed bowl and have half the water fall out.  Luckily, he had put down a towel so it all got caught. :D

***************************
Isaac had an eye appointment today.  Everything is fine.  His least favorite part was the bright light that was shown in his eyes.  He didn't like the air puff, but it was really the light that got him.  (Oh, and it was pajama day at school.)

Thursday: vacation

Today Ben took a vacation day and I was on spring break.  I brought the kids to school and then we slept in.  We then went out to lunch and saw Captain Marvel.  The movie started late, but it was just in time to get Joshua and Isaac.  The boys were excited to have Ben come to pick them up.
