we are all home, safely. Always nice to make it home safely, right? I say so.
Hubby had a good time on his hunting trip. He said he was ready to come home on Wednesday, but other than that he had a good time. I am sure he will go again next year, let's just hope he starts putting money away for it this time.
Me and the kids had a good weekend visiting with my friend. We visited Mark Twain's Cave in MO, that was really neat. Kids were, well, kids. They didn't really care what the tour guide had to say and they made it difficult for us to hear him. The parts we did hear though were pretty interesting. I think that was my first cave experience, that I can remember anyway. Towards the end Bubbaboy REALLY had to go potty, that was stressful. Being a boy, it is so easy just to let him go wherever he can hide himself, but that wasn't going to happen inside a cave. LOL. He couldn't understand why he just couldn't go off in the corner to go.
Buggygirl showed some signs of frustration this weekend too. She and I need some one on one time. She is asking for it and I need to make it happen. It's so hard to schedule this, but it is so important. This next weekend she goes with her dad and the following weekend is Thanksgiving. So I don't know when, but it needs to happen soon.
That is the hardest part of being a mom to two, sharing the time. Especially right now, Bubs is in his "see how far I can push mom" stage and it is hard to give Bugs the attention she deserves.
One of the greatest parts of being a mom to two is seeing them interact with each other in a loving way. It is such a blessing to sit back and see the love between the two of them. They can be such great friends to each other and then be down right siblings with fighting and teasing. The times that they are friends is truly heart warming.
So now that I am back to work :D, I have tons to finish up from being gone last week, so I better get back to what they pay me for. :)
Hi Stacie,
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice weekend! My husband and I found out that our oldest has claustrophobia when he was about five yrs. old, took him to "cave of the mounds" while camping in Wisc. We got halfway through the cave and he got hysterical so we had to "back out" of the cave through a million people, what a mess! I'm sure having to pee really badly is no fun, either! :) Have a good one! Lizzy
Looks like you had a great weekend with your friends and family. I think you are truly brave to go into a cave, that would freak me out after all the accidents on the news lately. And with one that has to pee too, you truly are brave!
ReplyDeleteheheh- was talking to a friend of 2 little ones this weekend and she said hers had started hitting each other. "i guess that's what we get for having them this close in age", she said. i reminded her that robert's brother, who is 6 years older than r, used to beat the crap out of him. it's not the age difference, great or small...it's being siblings!
ReplyDeleteof course the nice moments are much better for mama ;)
