Easter Eve

Today's post is going to be pretty short. We didn't do much of anything today so I really don't have anything to thrilling to write about. The best part of the day came at 8:00 AM when I got a wake up call from Aaron. He told me he had a headset and he was waiting for me on Skype. That meant that we could see each other on the webcam and talk and hear each other at the same time! Yay!!! We talked for a while and he got to watch the boys run around. I'm getting spoiled with the webcam...two days in a row! I'm one lucky girl! Seeing him is so refreshing. You can always make your voice sound happy on the phone but for me...I can read someone like a book as long as I can look at them. Aaron of course thinks he's great at hiding all emotion from me but he knows can I always tell his mood just by taking one look at him. His sly little smile gets him in more trouble than anything else! I love that sneaking little grin. In fact that same grin is partly what wins me over when we argue. How on earth can I be mad at him when looks so dang hot! Anyway, I'm rambling.

The boys and I threw on sweats and headed off to exchange Logan's shoes that he's wearing tomorrow to church. The ones I bought were to big. I was going to switch Lane's outfit to a different color but Logan INSISTED on matching Lane. If I was going to dress Lane in gray he wanted the gray outfit. As long as Lane was wearing the blue one then Logan wanted to wear that. So since I had only brought Lane's outfit to exchange we decided to keep the blue and just wear that. No need in spending extra money when the boys were content with what they already had. Afterward we just rode around with the windows cracked and enjoyed the 46 degree weather. Logan wanted to listen to Brittany Spears so we danced and sang as we rode. We didn't do anything but just being out of the house and feeling the warm sun was just what we all needed. After riding around for about 30 minutes the boys started getting droopy eyes so we headed home and we all enjoyed a nap. Logan protest but he ended up sleeping longer than Lane and I. I made fajitas for me and Logan but as I started cooking them Logan refused to even try them. So I just fixed him some of the Beefaroni that I warmed up for Lane. Logan still refused to eat that so Lane ate his and half of Logan's. I don't get it...one of my kids doesn't want to touch anything I put in front of him and the other one just can't get enough to eat.

Of course after dinner Lane was in desperate need of a bath so I cleaned them both and jumped in the shower myself. I've given up on having any privacy until Aaron comes home. Both boys do not understand that I would like to take a warm shower which would include having the door closed. In the moments where I feel the breeze I don't care whether they are in or out...just leave the door closed. When I turned the water off I realized I was talking to myself and the door was wide open. They were in the playroom. Logan had plugged in the fan and both were seeing what they could stick in it. I had already checked and knew that no fingers could get in and hurt but I see my one year old finding every toy he can and sticking it in and laughing. That boy! When he finally got something in there it of course made that horrible noise and scared him really bad. He came running to me with that terrified look on his face. I wish I could say that deterred him from doing it again but it didn't. When I turned around he started trying again. I had to move the fan and threaten both not to touch it before it got left alone. I think one of the reasons I don't go much of anywhere is because I pretty much have my house Lane proofed. I at least know that for the most part he can't severely hurt himself...but he can tear up plenty of stuff. Or so he's proving! I had to put locks on the cabinets today because he kept getting under the sink and in the cleaning supplies. He got so mad when he tried to open it and couldn't.

Well I'm off to bed. The Easter bunny has already stopped by and I know one little boy who is very excited to hunt his eggs in the morning. So I better get to sleep because I know I will be up way before I want to! Goodnight!
