Mondays are usually no big deal for me; however, today has been different! Neither child took a nap and both are going through a not minding stage. To say the least, I will be headed out the door for a run the minute Mark gets home!! ;) As you know, parenting is not easy and I am trying so hard to be stern with my boys and teach right from wrong, but I can't seem to get through to them. It's tough, but I refuse to give in and let them get away with whatever. Guess they are both hitting the "2" stage and I get it 24/7 rather than some day care teacher! Enough venting...they are both healthy, cute, full of energy and love, and MINE! I always have to remember that God didn't promise life would be easy, but rather that he would always be here with us! A pretty awesome promise if you ask me and I rely on him so much. Several friends and family have been going through some difficult times right now and I find comfort in knowing he hears our prayers.
My favorite conversation from Bently happened few days ago when Anderson woke from his nap, came downstairs, and Bently says to him "Did you have a good nap? Do you want a snack? We have water, a bar (AdvoCare)?" I mean, really, how sweet is that?
As far as Anderson, he is saying"BBBB...Bently!" He seems to be more concerned over his brother's name rather than his!
Augusta offers so much that is FREE! Yes, I love hearing that right now with me trying to keep them busy each day and we seem to go stir crazy when we stay at home all day. We had hoped to go to a free outdoor concert last Friday at the park, but Mark was late and rain made its way here just in time. So we had a sandwich at home and were all asleep before 10pm! Saturday we went back to our market and Bently devoured a homemade cinnamon roll while Mark had a fried fish sandwich! I tasted each and approved. ;) Afterwards, we went to a swamp park with friends. It was just that a SWAMP with mossy trees, cattails, and humidity. Yep, just like Louisiana and something we are very familiar with. They are from northern Kentucky, so it was all very neat to them. They even think pine-straw in the flower beds are cool! We had fun and picnicked and headed home!
We are all looking forward to having visitors next week! It will be nice to see a familiar face and share some of our fun with them.
