Yea!!! We finally have high-speed internet! Now that I don't have the worry about tying up the phone line, I plan to blog more! Of course, this all depends on how busy this English class keeps me. We have to participate on a discussion board a certain number of times during the week. So far, I'm enjoying the interaction with my classmates. This is my first internet course involving regular discussion, so it's a whole new world for me.

A few happenings since the last post:

Kayleigh ate three pennies, which I then had to check her poop for. Oh, the joys of motherhood! They passed without a hitch, and hopefully she learned her lesson. She is in an experimental stage right now. Every thought that enters her head must be tried out....this includes taking off child-proof caps and spilling medicine everywhere. I thought the bottle was out of her reach, but she figured out how to get it somehow!

William is pulling up on everything and he can stand on his own for as long as he feels like. He gets this huge smile everytime he catches himself standing. Guess he thinks he's pretty hot stuff or something. His determination amazes me! Kayleigh was a pretty easy baby to redirect, but not William. That child does not forget about what he wants. Yesterday I spent a good 15 minutes pulling him away from the stove while I was cooking. The kid would not give up and when he finally did, he went for the cookbooks on the shelf. And he is a screamer! There is no question he is upset when he doesn't get his way. I think he gets this from Justin!

I am enjoying my laid back summer schedule with daycare children. Right now I only have one little boy on Tues and Thurs. This enables me to focus more on my own children. Some days I feel like my children miss out on quite a bit because I have other children to worry about. I really enjoy the days when it is just me and them. Today I think we will go to the library after William's nap. Kayleigh loves going to the library! Reading is one of her favorite things to do and I am so glad she already loves books!

That's all I have for now....I'll try to drum up some deep thoughts for the next installment!
