I have a new appreciation for mothers of multiples. Two days this week I had triplets! William's little girlfriends came over to play and was I ever busy! Until nap-time (thank goodness all of them take the afternoon one together), I felt like I was constantly feeding or changing a diaper. Poor Kayleigh is probably feeling really neglected :(

I have started doing "school" for about an hour a day this week, and it seems to help some. This week we learned about the letter A. We made an alligator paper bag puppet, a letter A book, and an apple tree with fingerprint apples. I am also working on one-to-one correspondence and shapes. She loves the one-on-one time...something she doesn't get a lot of lately. She has also quit taking her nap...grrrrrrrr! Oh well! The new rule is she has to stay in her room and look at books or play with her dolls for at least an hour. Today I'm letting her watch a movie, but I don't want that to be an everyday thing.

This rain is about to drive me nuts! We took Brent's advice yesterday and just let Kayleigh out to play in the rain. She loved it! She is an outdoor girl and starts to go a little nuts if she can't run around for a little while.

Sorry this is all about the kiddos...it's kind of a therapeutic thing. I have bad days when I question the wisdom of having children....they can drive me to tears on occasion. Kayleigh seems to fight me on everything and I feel incompetent most of the time with her. But I find if I focus on her progress, it helps me get passed the other stuff.

Yippie!!! We finally purchased new furniture! Here's a pic of our new couch...ours isn't red though, it's truffle(dark brown). I'm so excited! We bought the sofa, love seat, chair and ottoman. Can't wait to see what it looks like in our home!

On a sadder note....found out Saturday that my favorite clothing store, Ann Taylor, is introducing a maternity line :( This would have been awesome about a year and half ago!
