So I’m hoping that with no rain in the forecast today that the girls will be able to get out with J for a walk. I know the backyard is out b/c with the heavy clay soil we have, it will be a huge mud pit for at least a week. I am so ready to wear spring clothes. I’m sick of this jacket stuff.

And the kids are going bonkers from being stuck in the house the past few days. It was a rough few days for all of us. And I know Kayla is losing her mind b/c I went to check on her at 8:45pm last night b/c it looked like she had taken her pants off on the video monitor. So I go in her room and she is sitting in her bed completely naked and as soon as she saw me, so went into a fit of uncontrollable laughter. It was so cute that I couldn’t help myself and got hysterical myself. They are so contagious.

Luckily she ended up falling asleep fully clothed, but she still woke up at 12:15 crying and her room was very cold. We have electric heat, so we have a thermostat in every room. I turned it up then, put socks on her and told her to stay under her blanket – she always throws it out of her bed. Of course, come morning, it was on the floor, but she slept fine the rest of the night. But I think that at some point, she had climbed on her toy box and turned her heat down b/c this morning it was right where it should have been and that is after I turned it up in the middle of the night. And spring and fall are always tougher with the heat b/c it’s not as cold outside and the heat doesn’t kick on as much, Yet it feels cooler. Does that make sense? Well anyway, it’s how it always works out. :)

Then of course, Kayla is on this kick of what she “needs”.
“Mommy, I NEED to watch Dora!”
“I HAVE to watch Alysa’s video!” (Baby Einstein)
I NEED this, I HAVE to have this…
Oh, and she’s still going on with “My tummy hurts” so she can get more TV. Of course it doesn’t work, but she won’t give it up. She even goes so far sometimes to ask us for the bucket b/c she’s going to “spit up”. She’s a trip, that’s for sure.
