Damn kids

I really wanted to keep up with this blog after making it. Every time I went to write, something came up. I blame kids. But I vow to make time for this blog from now on. :)

Since preschool has started I've had some extra time to myself during the day. Its nice. I should use the time to nap or read but I usually do something around the house. I have a hard time just relaxing. I should really see someone about that. I still have my rough days. Most of the time the day starts at 6:30-7. I realize that isn't a horrible time but when your first kid was sleeping until 8 or later, its hard to get use to being up that early. Its a work in progress.

Preschool is going relatively well. The only problem is that Kenna isn't eating. I know she usually takes a while to get use to people so I'm really hoping that once she adjusts, she'll eat more. I don't like the idea of her not eating for 7 hours or so. But the teacher says she is participating and seems happy so thats good. I know she needs the help and the socialization. The rest will come together. I think having the structured environment will also be beneficial. I just wish I could see what she is doing. I'd love to be able to observe her for a day to just see but I don't think that is possible. She is taking the bus to and from school which was worrisome at first. She seems to be handling that well too. We have days where she isn't entirely thrilled to get on but she doesn't get too upset. I'm starting to believe that I was making this into a bigger deal than it needed to be. I was pretty worried about how she'd deal and it hasn't really phased her. My baby is so grown up.

Now if only I could find somewhere to stick the little one. ;) Having some alone time with him has been good. I was sad that he wasn't getting the attention that Kenna had when she was little. I think he misses his big sissy though. He seems to get into all the things when she isn't here. Poor guy. At least he is easy to travel with. Whenever we have to do anything I just need to bring his snacks and he is content. Its still unbelievable to me that my almost 9 month old is eating more solid type foods than my 3 year old. Such is life.

Time for some chores before the little dude wakes up. Or maybe a nap.
