I found myself woken up by a very quiet 4 year old voice this morning, "Mommy, the bunny waked up..." That is supposed to be my que to hop out of bed and be ready for the day, apparently. Since Little J is still a little young for time telling, I bought him a clock that I set and during "sleeping" hours, it lights up a picture of a bunny tucked into his bed sleeping. When it gets to be 7:45am (which is the longest he will sleep most weekends), the light then lights up a picture of a bunny walking to somewhere with a backpack on. Hence, "the bunny waked up". Luckily today, the bunny worked. Some mornings I hear, "the bunny will never wake up!" and it's only 6:50! The joys of having a 3-4 year old!
On that note, I was making breakfast for him this morning (a waffle), and he is just jabbering away. I am still in my, Goodness why am I up this early on a weekend state, and trying to pay attention to everything he is saying. Then all of a sudden he stops, looks at me, and says, "I talk a lot, Mommy." I wanted to say, "Yeah, no kidding!", but like a good mommy, I said, "sometimes..." lol
Today has already been a major cleaning day. There is a Husker game today and we are having a couple friends over. The boys were absolutely wonderful last night, as Little J cleaned up his playroom, and my husband actually vacuumed the whole house! Stairs included! (I HATE cleaning the stairs.) I am quite the perfectionist when it comes to having people over, I really want my house to appear nice and clean, even if it does not always appear that way (especially during the week).
Well, for now, that is all, I have to get ready to take Little J to HyVee. We have some stuff to pick up for later today. He surprises me every time, and is a WONDERFUL shopping companion! I had a mom at the store the other day say to her little girl, "See, you wouldn't be able to push a little cart like that boy because you won't listen and stay where I tell you to!" LOL I have to admit, I chuckled lightly as we walked away.
