Zoe had spent the previous night at a Holiday Inn party with her friends and I think there was very little sleeping going on so she was totally exhausted. Violet had gone to Jersey City Saturday for Alex's rollerblading party and was tired as well. She is now a self proclaimed expert. I hope she is right and I can take her and Zoe this spring.
Marina has been entertaining us for years with her very interesting and unique observations of the world and human nature. For those of you that know her well... it seems that she may have gotten over her issue of patting strange men on the butt and staring them down. Only time will tell though. She remains the most stubborn child in the world but hopefully that will serve her well as an adult.
Gavin has always been my class clown but recently it has been so much fun to hear him expressing himself better with words. I need to write down some of the stuff he says because it cracks us up. He must hear things on TV. All of a sudden he has become Jaspurr's buddy and follows him around the house. The other day he was talking to the cat saying "Jaspurr, your my buddy. We have to stick together" Jaspurr tends to be vocal and Gavin starting asking me what he was saying so I would always make something up like. "he said he loves you" or whatever. Now he is convinced that I speak cat. The cat must have woken him up with his meowing to be fed and so Gavin came into our room while we were sleeping and repeatedly starting asking me what he was saying with each meow. I was still half asleep and after giving him about a dozen different answers, I told him to ask his father. Gavin replied "mommy, daddy doesn't know what cats say" haha I think the cat is going to start telling him to pick up his toys and to stop having meltdowns when he gets frustrated. Speaking of that, he must be feeling off this week because he has become very clingy and wanting me to hold him all the time. I hope this is just a short stage because he is around 27lbs now and it is hard to get anything done with this monkey on my back.
wow, this post has become a long and rambling one but I don't plan to post much for a while. I have some projects that I want to tackle around here and I will be making every effort to go unplugged. I have a few things I need to do online but by eliminating the unnecessary stuff I should be able to free up some more time. That is the my plan and my hope.
Recently, I have noticed that the Internet applications are making things more connected and it is becoming harder to keep up with all the changes. I am becoming more concerned about privacy and although I keep this blog unavailable by search engines, I feel like it might become more findable through other means so I am considered making it totally private. I will send out invites if I do this and if you don't get one and want to be added, please send me an e-mail. I have removed any outside links from Facebook and such and I think I need to spend a good hour or so cleaning house and checking my settings there as well.
