Tuesday,Teething and a Baby Cold…

Jump to Comments

Ouch!

The 1yo (13 months actually) has gotten a bit of a double whammy.  He has a bit of a cold which he has had for a day or too as well as getting stuffy and sore from getting another BACK tooth in.  For teething and having a cold he has actually done really well.  He is extra cuddly and extra cranky.  The reason I know it is more then just teething is because he has slept really well today.  When he is sick he sleeps, when he teethes he does NOT sleep.

Behavior Issues

4yo and 8yo had a long sit down talk tonight about their behavior.  Both have gone on a downward spiral causing the wife and I to be extra frustrated.  Hopefully the talks tonight along with some appropriate punishment will help put them back on track.  The wife told the 4yo she was going to sell him to the Gypsies tomorrow and he said “You can’t sell me tomorrow I have preschool”  LOL…

Back in the Saddle!

I have the new tube in my tire for my bicycle, it is up on the trainer and I rode 20 minutes today.  I need to ease back into the saddle per my Doctors.  It was so nice to be on the bike again.  I can not wait for the weather to get better so I can take the boys out in the trailer behind my bike.

The 5

  1. Unemployment – I have officially been unemployed for 24 days.  I have so contacts out there now as well as a probable return to my old company if some of the housing stuff comes under control.  I just can not take any employment since we could not afford daycare.
  2. City of Ember – 4yo and I watched that today.  It was just OK, nothing too exciting and a rather rehashed story.  A few things made 4yo get excited.  He enjoyed the giant Mole and Moth.
  3. Heroes Fall – Well each week I keep asking myself why I still watch Heroes.  Not sure at this point.  Hmmm
  4. Crazy Puppy – Well Gandalf the Puppy hates the vacuum cleaner so when I clean he hides out.  Well today while riding my trainer in the finished basement he sat at the top of the short staircase looking down at me not sure weather he should run away or attack the bike.   In the end he had a worried look, cocked his head and watched me for 20 minutes not moving from the op of the stairs.
  5. Audio books – Right now I have two playing, just finished one and 3 on tap.  I really enjoy audio books.  I get to listen to stories I would otherwise have no time to read.  Awesome!
