The Planets are aligning
I must say that today was remarkably nice compared to the last four or so. We woke up around 9:00, I was still very tired from doing computer stuff late into the night. Chi was in a great mood. We did the normal mornign thing I suppose. Morning Cartoons, a little bit of breakfast, check e-mail. Today I was feeling motivated because i haven't cleaned the house all this week. T has been the one doing the dishes and stuff, thank goodness for a great husband. But today I vacuumed and put in a load of laundry. That was all for my motivatedness though. We left around noon to go get McDonalds for lunch and then we went to the library. This library is the strictest library I have ever seen. They only allowed me to check out two books, then in two weeks I can pick up my library card, they will not mail it, and then I will be able to check out more than two at a time. LOL, it will take a month before I am entrusted with thier VHS videos. Chi loved the library. He ran through the aisles, and played in their childrens area. Tomorrow they have storytime at 10:30am, I will probably not be functioning by then but it's a nice idea.
We got home and Chi played for a bit. Then he got tired and we napped together. We woke up, went to the gym, then dinner and now home. I actually ran on the treadmill at the gym, that's major for me. I hate running.
At dinner we discussed how I'm a bigger nerd than my software engineer hubby. I have six, yes six e-mail accounts, a blog, am a member of an online community, and I spend my whole day, when not with Chi of course on this computer. Too bad I don't get paid for it all. I was offended in the bathroom by a lady who told my son that he was kinda cute! What's that, kinda cute? Well your kinda old lady. Sheesh!!
Cute stuff Chi did today. He insists that we clap for him when he has done something he is proud of. If we don't clap he takes our hands and claps for us. He tried to go potty in the potty. Well he sat in it anyway, but that was about it. He loves birds and pointed and made tweet tweet sounds whenever he heard one today. Just now he told me he wanted ni ni, which is night night for him. He's so good.
You know he is not on any sort of set schedule. He wakes up when wants, and he goes to bed at night when he is ready, sometime in between that he naps. I let him lead, and he does well with that. A lot of people and articles say that a child should be on a certain schedule, but you know I don't think at this age it really matters. We function very well without one, and frankly I've never been much of a schedule maker myself. I guess we will see if I'm making a big mistake just letting Chi take the lead. Right now I think we are very happy.
