Hire me a nanny.....PLEASE





Tired, worn out, exhausted, whipped. I am sure there are other words to describe what I am right now but they escape me. Here is a quick update on all of us. Starting from youngest to oldest.

Fletcher - Small scar my ass. That sucker is a good inch, inch and a half in length. I realize it will be small when he is older but right now it is friggin huge on him! He started smiling this week. It is the goofiest thing I have ever seen. I am trying to get a picture of it but he instantly goes serious when he sees the camera!

Aiden - My mom keeps telling me that boys are a different creature from girls. Unfortunately she forgot to mention that they are another species from another galaxy. Aiden is a ham. A rotten one. He feeds the dog the dinner he doesn't want, climbs the table, has mastered open the gate to the stairs, enjoys unraveling toilet paper all over the house and has developed and aversion to be buckled into anything (thank god the screaming only last a minute or so). But he gives kisses, loves to sit in bed with daddy and watch cartoons while stealing cereal. He tries to help with Fletcher by taking his pacifier (he views this as helping, Fletcher and I do not) and hiding it. We have no idea where the hiding place is either. I love that boy!

Lauren - Fairy girl is still off in LaLa land. We try to get her to come down to earth but she likes it up there. She is reading very well and flying thru the workbooks that we got to keep her "sharp" over the summer. I am worried that we may have another gifted child in our midst.

Aileen - The child has become obsessed with all things Japanese (Hello Kitty and Anime being the top 2) and fashion. And she has her own fashion sense. It is a odd (fancy dress, boot cut jeans, and flip flops were the outfit yesterday) yet it works for her.

Will - Another semester started so we don't see much of him. We miss him and love him lots!

Me - Sleep deprived and sore. I average 3 hours of sleep a night. The human body does not like to function on that little sleep and I am paying for it. By my body physically hurting! It sucks. Hopefully Fletcher will get back on his once a night schedule soon!

Blimey!! Not surprised you are tired!! Let me know if I can assist Aileen's Japanese obsession in any way! (I get back to Japan in a couple of weeks..) I could also send a little something for Super-Mum as well! ;-) (Although a Nanny might be a little bit beyond me!!)

Busy mommy you are! I could loan you a nanny - oh that's right, haven't had kids yet. I could let you some sleep but I don't get that much either. Glad to hear the update :)
