    Life sure moves fast…

    By bella | July 5, 2007

    The days just fly by faster and faster – it seems like they can’t go any faster, but yet they do.  I have a lot of plates in the air, and occasionally it feels like a few might come crashing to the floor, but so far I’m keeping everything spinning.  How’s that for a muddled cliche?  It’s about the best my brain can do anymore.

    A few things that are happening:

     - Martha is sleeping MOST of the night now – anywhere from 5 to 8 hours at a time, depending on her night.  She went to bed at 9:30 tonight.  Wonder of wonders!

     - Lil Allan is being QUITE the two year old.  He especially enjoys pushing his big brother’s buttons.

     - Samuel is amazing us on a daily basis with his growth and maturing.  He has started “practicing” with pencils and crayons and we’re seeing a few stick figure pictures and such when he draws.  (He’s had issues with doing this in the past, and we’ve had him evaluated for sensory and motor issues – evaluation report coming soon). 

     - We are playing the piano!  I downloaded some simple music from the Internet today, and we played the piano and sang songs for about an hour.  Samuel is not quite ready to learn the songs, but I think he’ll be ready any day now.  He’s a bit of a perfectionist, so if he thinks he can’t do something RIGHT, he hesitates to try.  I’m going to keep encouraging him though, because the piano is good for those motor skills too, AND I think he will really enjoy it once he tries. 

     - We’ve been BBQ’ing on Allan’s new grill – what fun that is, since I get to stay inside and just set up the table and then enjoy the GOOD food!  Yay Daddy for being a GRILL MASTER!

     - There is so much more, but lil Allan is awake and crying, and I just heard Martha too.  More soon, I hope!
