tid bits.

Where to begin?

Jacob lost another tooth. He wants to spend his $5 now but I am trying to talk him into saving for a better toy later. I do not think he is buying my logic. Few do. He's out of school in 1 month. They are already talking about Castaway Cove. I wish we lived closer. I'd love to go more than once a year. Well...really, who's stopping me? He has also started T-Ball this last week. It's coach pitch which means it's a big free-for-all. The parents are allowed to be on the field with their kids and maybe 4 didn't even have a glove. Should make for a very LONG game. Gladly he keeps track of the ball count. "Ssstttrrrike TWO! One more and you're OUT!" Easy honey. Encourage not discourage your teammates...

Evann took a header on her scooter last Sunday and had 2 stitches. Fortunately we were in the hospital parking lot when it happened--during our walk to the park. Daddy took out the stitches last night and found a pebble embedded in her skin. Nice. She's been good about taking care of them. She's actually developing into a wonderful little helper. Her mommy instincts are coming out. She tries to take care of any younger child that will allow her the oportunity. The unsuspecting children are typically having a good ol' time when Evann sees their lack of parental guidance and promptly remedies the situation. "Mom, here. Ruben wants you." No he doesn't he was happy eating in his seat; and now he's crying. Thank you for helping but he was fine, honey. She cocks her head to the side and gives me a crooked smile as if to say, "Whatever, he's your problem now." She starts Pre-K this fall. We're happy about it, she's happy about it. It's all good stuff.

Isaac and Ruben are the same as always. Although Ruben can walk, he does it on his own terms. It's a little more often than a week ago but not like a typical 16 month old. Isaac is always keeping tabs on Ruben. That's not the best idea since there is a tad bit of jealousy there on both sides. I enjoy it when Isaac asks me questions and then repeats my answer: "Mom, do we like french fries?" Yes we love french fries. "Oh, we DO like french fries."

Back to the random thoughts I promised in my title:
I really like Jason Mraz. A lot. And I really like Michael Buble. And I feel that if you have the time to listen to music it should be 1 of 3 people:
Jason Mraz, Michael Buble, or Stevie Ray Vaughan. Enough said on that. Well, not so much because I really like a song by Flo Rida (the name is so silly-I think he's actually from Florida, I saw something about his name somewhere) Anyway, he has a remix of Dead or Alive's, You Spin Me...It makes me happy. I REALLY enjoy it and I typically do not appreciate remakes or remixes but this one really makes me want to dance. Good good good.

Okay, I am tired. I feel a little like complaning about things but will opt out of that behavior for the night. Besides, my heartburn is forcing me to call it quits and find the Tums.

I am so wordy. Eh, oh well. Deal with it, I guess. Buenas noches!
