Today Big A took Moose to work with him (they delivered feed or liquid protein or something so it was a driving day) which left me with just one child to attend to. With Squirt still sick, he slept a lot.

I threw out my work out today and took about an hour long nap with him. It felt SOOOO good. I can't remember the last time I napped. And it helped me feel better - my throat was SORE when I woke up this morning.

I mostly felt good the rest of the day until Squirt woke up from another nap and cried for an hour straight. And then Moose came home and was super whiny so my headache just escalated. But nothing a few Tylenol couldn't help.

Tonight Squirt actually laid on the floor and rolled around/played. He was smiling. Another sign he is getting better is that he's getting stubborn about sleeping again (ugh). The kid is just a fireball of energy - always moving an arm or a leg or something. It's crazy (and can be crazily aggravating, too).

Watched last week's Biggest Loser tonight - TO BE CONTINUED? How can they do this to me? Please no one spoil it for me if you watched this week's. I'm a week behind with hulu. Kind of nice to watch it at my convenience, though - almost as if we had DVR. LOL

Anyway, hoping for another good day tomorrow (and 2 more hours of working out). Praying my boys feel good tomorrow (and me too).

Don't tell anyone, but I nap every chance I get. If both of the boys are sleeping at the same time, I sneak in at least a few minutes. Hehe.

NO fear about The Biggest Loser...it wasn't on this week because of the Olympics. So we have to be patient until after the Olympics...grr.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read

Greater (movie review)

Sports movies are some of my favorite ones; even better if they are underdog stories! "Greater" is just that - a true underdog story about Brandon Bulsworth who could be called the greatest walk-on in the history of college football. The movie follows Bulsworth from the time he's a kid. His mother is raising he and his brother (who is quite a bit older; old enough to be mistaken for his dad, laughably). His brother gives him a kick in the pants when Brandon claims he wants to play for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Brandon was a heavy kid so no one really thought it would happen. However, Brandon worked as hard as he could and made it. Walked on the team and caught the attention of his coach who put some amazing work into this kid to help him become better. I love when coaches look at the heart of a player more than ability. This really is an amazing story, an amazing movie - full of inspiration and encouragement. Things that seem impossible become possible. The rea

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp
