The Rewards of Life

Trial and Error

2012-01-23T10:50:00.000-08:00

Today I let D and H use our new "Do A Dot" painters on the letter B. It had the circles on it, so it was supposed to teach one to one correspondence. I had to go and change E's diaper while they did some of this. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that H (the 2 year old) had done pretty good with the dots. I have discovered that he won't do an art project longer than 15 minutes at the most, though. (Sometimes 2 minutes) I will need two projects for him in the future. I was frustrated that D(the 4 yr old) wasn't filling in his paper when I got back. But, I soon discovered that he was mixing his colors. He was putting a blue dot down, and then a yellow dot on top of it to get a green dot. He explained to me that he had all of the primary colors and was seeing what colors they made when you put them together. (What!? I didn't know he knew what those were.) So, I showed him that the other three colors we had were called secondary colors. So, my plan did not go as planned, but learning took place. So, success!
I also introduced my idea for a new discipline plan to them. I'm going to use a discipline ladder along with reward bucks. So, I let D and H help me make a list of things that would make them go down the ladder and a list of things that will make them go up the ladder. We also made a list of things that we would like to buy with our reward bucks. D was soooooooooooo excited. I mean, like dancing around the house, excited. I need to make the ladder now, and decide the "prices" for the prizes. ...pictures to come.

More of the school room

Here is the sweet little one who I will be homeschooling next year. Who wouldn't want to wake up to that face every day? I'll be "teaching" my middle child, who will be 3, as well. But, that will mostly be games and play.

This will be the preschool shelf. At least, the bottom of the shelf will be. I saw this cool idea on pinterest, I think. You put individual activities on fast food trays. They get to choose what they want to do and then put it back and get a new one when they're tired of it. (Which, for Harrison, is about 2 minutes right now.) The tray lets them see each activity and keeps it all in one place. I haven't found a good deal on trays yet. Right now, the shelf houses our play kitchen stuff. So, that stuff will need to find a new home.

This year, I have been teaching my eldest using the "My Father's World" curriculum. It comes with letter cards, which I half traced/half drew, so that I could hang them on the wall and still be able to teach with them. Some came out better than others.

Two posts in one day!!!

2012-01-03T20:05:00.001-08:00

I'm doing Game On with my mom, cousin, and sister in law. But, I'm using weight watchers for my food plan. I'm still trying to remember all the rules. I'm fairly certain that leave the jar of peanut butter beside the couch to tempt you after you finish the wii fit is not one of them. Note to self: hide peanut butter. Leave out carrots.

A New Year, and a New Post!!!!

2012-01-03T10:58:00.000-08:00

I have a tendency to think that no one wants to hear what I have to say or that everyone already knows the things that I know. I forget that I have figured alot of this stuff out along the way, and that I got my information from other people. So, partly inspired by my cousin's super duper inspiring blog, I want to try and blog about the things that I do. I'll be focusing on organization, parenting, and maybe some cooking. I will not be giving you advice on cleaning :-) Maybe, in the future. But, I do not excel in cleaning right now.

I am terrified and excited to say that John and I have decided that I will be homeschooling David next year in kindergarten. I've been teaching him this year, but this will be the first year that is state mandated. I took some pictures of our "school room." It's really messy right now, so we'll call these the "before" pictures.

I decided a while back that I wanted to get a pocket chart holder. Boy, are those things expensive. I found a deal on this calendar pocket chart online for 6 dollars. So, I set out to look for a pocket chart holder. Later, I was trying to figure out what I was going to do with the clothes hanging rod that I bought for my maternity clothes. It was way too flimsy to hold up more than like one dress. So, I thought it might make a great pocket chart holder if it was shorter. My greatly talented husband agreed to cut the poles shorter for me, and ta da: instant pocket chart! I'm really excited with how it turned out.

This is our craft closet. It used to be organized until we got more stuff for Christmas which I haven't found a home for yet.

This is our school supply closet. Same thing goes here. It was organized until we got more stuff.

This is our school table. I kinda wish I had a kidney table, but this works.

Okay, it's time to get the kids up, so that it all for today.

The new Family Dollar

2010-10-01T11:25:00.000-07:00

I've always been one to give people the benefit of the doubt. Everyone was complaining about how cheap the new FD in Woodruff looked. It was a big metal eyesore to the home town feel of Woodruff. But, I thought it might be nice having a store like that on main street to get all of those little things that you might need. Also, the new FD was advertising that they were going "green."
So, the boys and I went there today.

The first thing I noticed was about 4 empty spots near the front of the store. I thought, oh that's nice, maybe they have a mother's with children parking spot or at least a pregnant parking spot. Nope. There were two spots for "alternative fuel vehicles" and then two spots for "carpool vehicles." Why do people who just happen to have enough money to buy an "alternative fuel" vehicle need to be closer to a dollar store? Soooooo, me and my two toddlers parked waaaaaaay behind the building and made the trek to the store.
Next, we got in a buggy and made our way to the door. It was not automatic. This makes it really difficult for those in wheelchairs, or with small children. Once we got in, I felt like I was in the Dollar General right down the road. They didn't seem to have anything more than the DG, and might have even had less. I will say that the employees were nice, if not very knowledgeable.

Ugh!!!!! I will not be returning!!

Ten on Tuesday

2010-09-29T06:44:00.000-07:00

I stole these questions from another friends blog, and I thought it would be an easy way for me to get started blogging again.

1. Growing up, what was one favorite item that you had to have with you at all times?
I did have a blanket that I carried around until Patrick was born and Mom let me choose another one so i would give it up. (I believe it was in scraps at that time.) But, I think my favorite item was my thumb. Yes, I was a thumb-sucker.

2. Being an adult, what is one favorite item that you have to have with you at all times, and what happens if you do not have it with you? Do you lose your sanity or just go back home to get it?
My cell phone, because I like having the ability to get in touch with people at any second. If I forget it, it's usually too much trouble to go back and get it unless I'm still sitting in the driveway when I remember. I'm also pretty lost (literally) without my GPS. My sense of direction is horrible.

3. Where is your favorite place to be to just hide away from everything and breathe for a moment?
If I'm being truthful, I think that I "hide away" on the computer, either on facebook, or watching something on hulu. I was going to say the bathtub, but I haven't had a lot of time to do that lately, and then of course, I would need to clean it, which would defeat the purpose.

4. What is your favorite thing about your partner? (If you don’t have a partner, then someone who is very close and will always be in your life.)
I love the way he is with the boys and seeing how much they adore him.

5. What is your favorite thing about your job? (If you don’t have a job, then what is your favorite thing that you do during your day?)
My job is taking care of and teaching my children. I am so lucky. I know I complain alot about how tired I am and how I long for adult companionship, but I wouldn't want it any other way. I love watching my children learn something new. I love it when they spontaneously hug or kiss me. I don't love all of the cleaning and stuff that comes with it :-)

6. What is your favorite lesson that your parents taught you growing up? Looking back, is it something that you want to use to teach your children when they reach that age?
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, your soul and your mind. And, love your neighbor as yourself."
I will absolutely teach it to my children.

7. What is your favorite song, that will always bring a smile to your face and make you think of something happy?
I can't pick. Maybe, "I Have Confidence" from "The Sound of Music." It's loads of fun to sing in the car at the top of your lungs!

8. What is your favorite thing about being an American? (If you are not American, what are you proud of in regards to your country?)
I think that freedom is the best thing about our country, but I know that I do not appreciate freedom like so many families that have lost loved ones in recent years, or that have given up family members for extended periods of time to serve our country. I am very grateful, though, for those that have fought in the war to make our lives here what they are. (Okay, I stole this answer directly Rhonda's blog, but I liked it.)

9. What is your favorite meal that reminds you of being a child?
Pizza Inn!! Yum!

10. Name 3 things that other people would say are their favorite thing about you.
I don't know. Maybe my friends that read this blog could help me out with this question.

The Ward boys

2010-09-01T07:11:00.001-07:00

Aren't my boys the most beautiful boys in the whole world?!!? Well, I think so!

A Visit With Will

2010-07-17T19:51:00.000-07:00

Will -2 Harrison-1 David-almost3

When did David become a boy and not a baby?!?

2010-05-08T20:17:00.000-07:00

He's doing it! David is pee peeing in the potty! I never would have believed it. He still needs to be reminded or he forgets. And, we're having some nap issues (that include poop). But, go David!! I'm so proud of you!

Guess what!?1?

2010-05-06T19:16:00.000-07:00

We've had a break-through!! David has discovered how to pee in the potty!! He's only had one or two pee accidents in the past few days! Poop seems to be another story all together. He has pooped in the potty a few times, but he still forgets that he needs to sit on the potty to go until afterwards. I'm so proud of him, and so is he!! We're still not sure how to go without getting pee all over both of us, though. ....baby steps!!!
More to come.

Walking and Peeing

2010-04-30T10:22:00.000-07:00

Here's an update on how things are going here.

David is still potty learning. I think that he knows how to hold his pee now. He does not, however, know how to release it when he sits on the potty. Our floors have been well christened. I need to hear lots of potty training success stories so that I don't just put him back in diapers. He's not frustrated, but I sure am. David is becoming quite a little boy. He is very pensive. He notices everything and remembers most things. He sings all of the time!! (Except at storytime when he refuses to do anything. It's the introvert in him, I guess.)

Harrison's walking!!! He's not walking well yet, but he does it often. Hopefully, I'll be able to put a video of it on here. Harrison has also learned to wave, clap his hands, and pick his nose. We're more proud of some of those things than others. :-)

Both boys have colds. Yuck!! I hope they don't lead to infections and antibiotics, but they always have in the past. Here's a video that has David singing and Harrison walking and waving.

2010-04-21T06:23:00.000-07:00

This was about 2 months ago. It's my favorite.

Harrison - about 8 months

Fishy Fishy

2010-04-21T06:08:00.001-07:00

I love watching my boys grow and learn. Harrison is progressing so fast. I forgot how much they learn in a day when they're that age!! He walked last night. John figured out that he needs a "launching pad" to start from. It won't be long before he's doing it all the time. He stood up all by himself this morning. (Without pulling up on anything.) Now, he's cruising around, babbling, and playing peekaboo with a blanket. I'm hopeful that David will get this potty learning thing. He's excited about getting to wear the underwear. He told me this morning, "I don't get pee pee on Percy." No pee yet this morning, but his underwear is still dry, so that's something.
I really need new pictures, but my camera needs new batteries. I just said, "Hey, Harrison," and he waved at me. It's so cute. I need to get it on video.
I was doing a finger puppet show of "The Three Little Pigs" yesterday before John came home. I really need to do more "play" with them. They both really love it, even though Harrison mostly wanted to eat the little pig. I'm going to go see if I have any videos I can put on.

Potty Training: Day two

2010-04-19T18:51:00.000-07:00

I'm going to start on a happy note. I was looking at a picture of David at 10 months, and I thought it looked alot like that picture of Harrison from almost 10 months. What do you think?

Potty training is not fun. I need to make it more fun. Learning should be fun, and he is learning something new!!!!

Good things: David is learning to pull up and pull down his underwear. I need to see that as success!!!

Bad things: Maybe I shouldn't dwell. Tomorrow is another day. Let's just say it was really messy.

On another note, I think Harrison has a cold. He is coughing in his crib. He has his well baby visit tomorrow. Ironic, huh. I think he's always sick during his well baby visits. I wonder if they'll give him his shots or not.

Told you I was a horrible blogger!!

2010-04-19T06:51:00.000-07:00

Okay, so it's been 6 months since I wrote a blog. But, I watched "Julie and Julia" yesterday, so I'm reinspired to try again. Here goes.

Last week or so when I opened David's pack of diapers, I vowed that it would be our last pack (not including pull-ups). So, everytime I put a clean diaper on him, I told him, "When all these diapers are gone, we're going to wear underwear." He would say, "I don't want to wear underwear. I want to wear a diaper." And I would say, "That's okay, but that's what's going to happen." On Saturday when they ran out, we put on underwear, and he was okay with it.

So, here we go. He has peed in the potty a few times when I've taken him to go, but he hasn't figured out the asking to go thing yet. Pray that I have patience with him and that he has patience with me.

Harrison is growing up so fast. He isn't a baby anymore, I think he's pretty much a toddler now. He's almost gotten all 4 top teeth at once. He's got one left to break through the gums. Poor baby!! He had a three day low grade fever when they first started coming in. I know the doctors say that fevers don't come from teething, but that was his only symptom. He's trying his best to learn to walk. He cruises everywhere, and he can take a few steps.

Here's hoping I'll do better at this. But, I'm no good at getting the pictures to go where I want them to go. So, please help me with that if you're good at it. Thanks!

My night and day child

2009-10-12T17:36:00.000-07:00

David was so sick! I think he caught a cold at church on Sunday. He had a high fever on Wednesday and was sickly up until this morning. This morning, a new child awoke!! I was worried that I had a horribly naughty child on my hands, but it turns out he just felt that bad. He still has a rough cough, but look at my new boy!

Harrison

2009-09-17T12:21:00.001-07:00

I couldn't get this to upload onto facebook, so here it is.

Blah blah blah, I'm going to bed now.

2009-09-09T20:54:00.001-07:00

It's 12:00 and I'm still up. Why do I do this when I know I have to get up at 7:00am; not even mentioning the other times I have to get up during the night?
Oh, well.
BTW, I quit potty training David. We were both getting frustrated. I'll try again in October, I think. John is going overseas for two weeks on Monday. This is my cry for company. I'm looking for people to keep me company and sane while he's gone. I have much respect for "army" wives. I could not do it. This is a boring post. Sorry.

Swimming

2009-09-07T19:52:00.001-07:00

If thrown in water, I will probably not drown. But, I am a horrible swimmer. I never made it very far in swimming lessons because I refused to try and dive. I don't like water much. It always goes up my nose. I never learned to blow bubbles out of my nose.
All of this said... My husband was a life guard in high school. So, he's been taking David swimming at my parents' house. I want you to look at my little 2 year old swimming!

Well, I gave it another try.

2009-09-04T10:50:00.000-07:00

I took David and Harrison to try and register David for gymnastics today. But, it turns out that they don't open until 3:00. The internet said 10:00. Oh, well. Maybe I'll go back tonight, maybe not. So, I decided to take David to the library as a consolation prize. It, of course, didn't open until 12. So, I took him to the park. We stayed there until the library opened.

I must stop here and tell you about the last time I went to the Woodruff library... I had just had Harrison. Mom was keeping David, and I took Harrison with me to pick up some books. I knew what I wanted, so I could get in and out of there. When I went to check out my books, it turned out that I had late fees on some DVDs that I checked out. (My fault, not a problem.) I handed her my card. "We don't take cards." Umm, okay.. So, I had to take Harrison out to the car and get my checkbook. (BTW, it was about 99 degrees outside.) Then, her computer wasn't working right. I wrote the check for the amount she told me, then she said .."Wait.. have you already written it?" AHHH! She gave me a receipt that said something like 16.36 paid or something. Then, it gave the run down of what each thing cost. It said something like 15.20 total. So, I asked her why I paid 16.36 when it should only have been 15.20. She didn't know. She went to get someone else to ask her. She proceeded to tell me that I still owed 1.12. I mentioned that that was the difference in the total and what I paid. They told me that I was wrong and was just reading it wrong. I, of course, got mad, but tried to remain calm. (I know it was a stupid 1.12, but it was my stupid 1.12, that I had just paid her. They eventually decided to just "let it go." (They never acknowledged that they were wrong.) At this point I am crying. (I do that when I get mad, and having just had a baby!!!) So, I told her to keep the books, and left.

Now, back to today. I put Harrison and David in the double stroller, thinking that would make it easier. I tried to look up books on the computer while they were still in the stroller, but David became restless, so I brought him over to the kids section. You're supposed to stay with your children over there, so I couldn't look any books up (I wanted to find one on gymnastics to show DAvid) No one offered to help me. Everything was okay, until I realized that David had pooped. Of course!! So, I drug the double stroller over to the bathroom. And.... there are two big heavy doors that you have to pull to get in the bathroom. The distance between the two doors is about the length of a double stroller. It took me forever and lots of banging of the children into the doors to get in. I got David's diaper changed and began the process of getting out of the doors. I had to back all the way into the wall to get out of the bathroom. The big map on the wall behind me proceeds to fall on my head. At this point, I give up. I call out..."Can somebody help me?" I waited. No one came!!! I was finally able to get out of there. I couldn't reach to hang the map back up.

I came around the corner and told the lady that the map had fallen on my head. She looked at me like I had killed her cat. We checked out our books and left.

And thus ended my last trip to the Woodruff library.

Mommy Lesson Plans

2009-09-03T09:02:00.000-07:00

I forget how much staying at home is like when I taught music in the public school. And, I should know that, because I'm teaching David. Duh! You absolutely get out of it what you put into it. And, the more prepared you are, the better behaved the children are.
Today, so far, we've taken a walk...(well, I walked), then I put Harrison down for a nap. David and I had a snack, we played cars, watched Silly Songs, colored, and now we're listening to Elmo sing and David's ...well, he's tearing up stuff, but he's learning ;-). I bought a kitchen timer, more for me than for David. I put it on 10, 15 minutes. Then, when it goes off, we go do something else. I think it helps alot, because David gets bored, but doesn't realize it. And, ....so do I.
So, I've learned what I've always known. I need to make "lesson plans" for the day. I've been thinking about doing a letter and a theme for the day or week. ....maybe finding books, shows, and foods to go along with it. Send me some encouragement so I'll keep it up. Pictures will come soon, I promise!

Potty Training

2009-08-12T19:15:00.000-07:00

Potty training, days one and two.

Well, we've sort of started trying to potty train David. Yesterday we had one pee and one poop. Today, only one pee. I'm using the pull-ups, but I would really like to try the naked thing. I think David would catch on quickly with that. But, I'm pretty sure that in getting there, everything in my house would be covered in pee (or worse). I'm also interested in finding some of those thick, cloth training pants, but I can't find any. Any suggestions, ideas, success stories with little boys?

Thanks!!

Two years old!

2009-08-08T19:17:00.000-07:00

Happy second birthday, David. You are my joy, each and every day. I love you!!

Why I don't write more blogs...

2009-07-10T17:56:00.000-07:00

I love reading blogs!! I love laughing at all of the witty comments that all of my really smart friends write. I, however, can never think of anything funny or even interesting to say.

So, I must apologize to those of you who also enjoy reading witty blogs. Mine will often if not all times fall short of that.

But, here goes. Life is slowly starting to fall into a new normal. I'm still 3 weeks away from the "you can pick up your 2 year old" go ahead. So, that makes life really interesting around here. David is being a real trooper. He's learned to get into and out of his bed by himself with the help of a stool (sool). I'm still amazed that he never uses it until I come in to get him up in the morning. I think it's because he knows that his pacifiers stay in the bed, so he does too. And, he has moved from his high chair into a chair at the table with everyone else. I still have to put him in his chair at the table and in the car (don't tell my doc.), but he can get out pretty good by himself.
Harrison is amazingly laid back. He really only cries when he's hungry. Sometimes he grunts a little bit when he has the hiccups or needs to poop or spit up (yes I talk about that all of the time, sorry). But, he is already able to get himself to sleep pretty well.
I feel pretty good. I don't really have any pain anymore. Yah!!!
Okay, so that's it for now.

.......Something witty here......

Harrison is here!!

2009-06-22T16:16:00.001-07:00

Well, I successfully did it!! Harrison was born at 10:39am on June 19th. He was 8 lbs 1.6 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long. No surgery is fun!! But, this c-section was 100% better than my last one. I was so scared that it would be like the last one. The doctors, nurses, and nurse anesthetist were awesome! I won't go into details, but feel free to ask me about it if you are facing a scheduled c-section.

Almost here!!

2009-06-17T19:15:00.000-07:00

Well, the big day is almost here. We arrive at the hospital at 8:00am on Friday morning, and Harrison's c-section is at 10:00am. I'm so glad that they were able to move it up from 12. The less time I have to sit around worrying, the better.
I'm really excited to finally meet Harrison. ...to finally see him as another child. I think I'm just picturing having David again:-) I'm starting to get anxious about the c-section. I really don't do well with hospitals, needles, pain in general. I'm hoping to get to go home by 12:00 on Sunday. ...so says Dr. Toler. So, feel free to come and visit Harrison and the rest of his family at my house by Monday:-) I've asked my family to come and see him on Saturday. I'm hoping I'll be well medicated and situated by then.
Please pray that there are no complications; that I stay calm through the surgery so I am able to remember and enjoy seeing Harrison come into the world; and that I have a quick recovery.
I'll put pictures on here as soon as I can lay the laptop on my belly again.

Do Again

I have some really cool pictures to put on here. But, we're having computer issues in my house. The computer with the pictures, doesn't have the internet, and the computer with the internet, doesn't have the pictures. So, you can see my pickle.
The pictures will include many visits with friends and a lovely day outside with David and Daddy.
So, soon to come.........

Playdate!!

2009-04-19T19:26:00.000-07:00

David and I were so excited last Friday that the Snook girls were able to come over for a playdate. You mostly see the backs of our heads, because we were so engrossed in playing. After lunch, Hannah had the wonderful idea of cat watching:-) We can't wait for them to come and play with us again!!

Beach Trip

2009-04-06T19:39:00.000-07:00

We went to Edisto for "Spring Break." John, my mom, David and I went for the first weekend. My dad joined us and John left us on Monday. On Tuesday or Wednesday we went to the Children's Museum in Charleston. David loved it!!
There are so many more pictures, but they take forever to download. Here's some!

David slept in his big boy bed last night!!! And, right now, he's "napping" in there too. If this is successful, we may move the crib out of there today. I can't believe that we are here already:-( and :-)

Good Weather

None of my pictures with friends turned out very good. I thought I'd put some pictures from Sunday instead.

This one is David and Daddy getting ready for church. Notice the matching dimple, eyes, and smiles:-) ...my handsome boys!!

Later, after David's nap, Grammy and I took David to the WPS park. We had a grand ol' time:-)

I'll get some new pictures on here soon. David and I have had some grand adventures with friends! We've visited with Will and Laura, Sarah Beth, Hannah, and Emily, and Aunt Janice! Now, he's watching Elmo's World on You Tube while I type this. Don't tell the American Pediatrics Association, or whatever they're called.

I am in a total funk!! I tend to do this periodically. I need something to jump start me again. I'm so depressed about being stuck in the house all day that I can't even do the mundane things like clean the kitchen and do the laundry. Ugh!! I really need some close stay-at-home mommy friends. Any takers?
On a happier note... David and I were at the grocery store today, and I was singing the Super Why version of the ABC Song. David started singing back to me at the top of his lungs.......
ABBB BIB!!!!!!! It was hilarious. He did it all the way to the check out line. The cashier wasn't amused. Sad for her:-(

Ultrasound and the sick baby blues

David's got some yucky cold thing. He's so uncomfortable and sad. It makes me sad, too.
On a happier note, we had our ultrasound today. I wish that I could enjoy things like that more, but I worry so much that something is going to be wrong. They said that he has a two vein umbilical cord. This seems to be a relatively common occurance, and will most likely not be a problem. But, it is one more thing for me to worry about.
It's a boy!! Harrison Charles Ward. I can't wait to see him:-)

Numero Uno

Okay. So, I'm going to try this blogging thing. But, I must warn you that I have never succeeded with a diary. So, I am destined to fail. But, I have many humerous David stories to tell, and very few people to tell them to. So... here goes.

I decided to try and get some good pictures of David today. Because, he moves very fast these days, and I rarely get anything but his back. These turned out pretty good.

Oh, and David was vacuuming with the Shark in the kitchen today (because that's fun for some reason), and so I ran downstairs to grab some clean laundry. This is what I found when I came back. These started out in the pantry, by the way.
