Dreams

Keith and I keep wondering if Jayce has dreams. We found out the other day that he does! He was calling out for me in the middle of the night. I went into the spare bedroom (where he likes to sleep 50% of the time) and he told me that "the cars are trying to get up the stairs and run my over". (He says 'my' instead of 'me'.) "I'm scared mommy, come here." So I laid down in bed with him and he rolled over and gave me a hug and said.. "I'm safe now." Just melted my heart.

He has a fear of cars in parking lots. Which is a good thing to have but it can get kinda obsessive sometimes as he won't even get out of the car on his own if another car is driving in the parking lot close to us. So I need to get Kaelyn out of the car first and then go pick him up too. I think I've done too good of a job instilling in him that cars are dangerous...the poor kid is having nightmares about them now!

Beautiful Weekend!

Oh it was a fabulous weekend! So nice & warm. We pretty much played outside all weekend long. Jayce even told me "there's no more snow mommy, we can eat breakfast outside". So on Friday morning we donned our jackets and ate breakfast outside. Even our princess Kaelyn is beginning to like it outside and doesn't mind getting dirty anymore. She was happily playing in the sandbox today! I've had to put aside some sacrifical outfits for her as even though she started walking a few weeks ago she decided that crawling is more her style (or maybe just faster still) and is back on all fours.

I've been doing a ton of yard work on my days off with the kids. Raking for a couple hours here and there. I've pretty much got the yard picked up from the fall/winter. I even planted the peas in the garden today! I'm still trying to decide what to plant this year but the peas were such a hit last year that I decided to plant a TON more than I did last year. The strawberry plants look like they survived the winter and I'm hoping the asparagus is going to be a good crop this year. I'm told that I can harvest for 1 week this year! So yeh. The blueberry bushes are starting to bud and I just replanted the raspberries. I also noticed two onions made it over the winter. I must have not picked them last season...will wait until I plant the bed to see what they look like! Probably tomato, broccoli & cucumber. Maybe an eggplant & squash plant as well.

I'm excited...Jayce brought some worms to the garden today and I mixed in some organic feed so we are getting ready....it was WONDERFUL eating all our own food over the winter. Still have some spaghetti sauce, cucumbers & frozen veggies left...but not for much longer!

Look what Kaelyn learned to do!

our baby is getting big! :(

February 2010 pictures

Kaelyn's biggest feat this past month was climbing! You will see a ton of pictures of her climbing into every chair possible and baskets of books! She was super excited.

Jayce's biggest accomplishment (wich you can't capture in pictures) was saying thank you and you're welcome. He finally understands how to use those two new words and is super cute doing it! We are also told that we are doing a good job a lot. He makes you feel like a million buck as he doesn't just say good job one but about 10 times...clapping his hands all the while!
