These Days...


We have had it so easy with Justice.

Yes, it was a doctor visit ridden pregnancy. And a rather less than lovely emergency cesarean experience.

Justice himself, though? So easy.

He slept through the night the day we brought him home from hospital. He slept twelve hours a night and still took four hour naps in the afternoon. He started talking early and walking late, so I was able to know both what he wanted and where he was - who can say that about their young toddler?

These days he is such a busy little person. He is invested in Auskick this term (AFL), he is still determinedly learning Ju Jitsu. He is still playing guitar.

He is six and a half years old and in second grade. He is challenging himself to learn the periodic table - and by this I mean number, symbol, name, state and group (what is an alkaline earth metal people?!). It has been so long since there was any baby in my baby!

I have so many friends expecting or currently experiencing that painful wonder of a brand new baby.

I'm jealous. I wouldn't trade where we are now or who he is now for anything, of course I wouldn't... but the time really is flying by...

Loving the Laundry!

So, who says "No one loves laundry day"?


My one day off each week is usually consumed with ensuring my family is not forced to trek naked through the streets.



Justice is not a fan of laundry day because he has to haul all the dirty clothes downstairs to the laundry room.



Will is not a fan of laundry day because I hang wet things all over the house and he feels like he's married a vagabond.
I am not a big fan of laudry day, since it feels so overwhelmingly endless.

BUT, someone in this house loves laundry day!
