Scraps of Life

Life has been really good lately. I do still have plenty to complain about, but so much more to be grateful for. I've recently switch Ca to one nap per day which means Z and him take a nap at the SAME time. Before it was always hit and miss on coinciding naps. There were a few days that they both slept the same 2 hours. It was amazing. Only hard thing is keeping Ca up all morning. He gets grouchy during lunch.

Ca had his one year doctor's appointment. He's in the 2 percentile now with his weight. He sometimes eats more than Z. His height is 40 percentile. Doc wasn't concerned about his weight, but gave me some suggestions to fatten him up. No turning the car seat around, yet.

We are getting new tile and carpet soon. Ever since we moved into this house, we've wanted to re tile the kitchen and tile the dining room. Whose idea was it to put carpet in a dining room? Turns out, setting the living room carpet on fire will give you reason enough to go ahead and get that taken care of.

The big tile is the one we've picked. They'll be 16x16. I'll let you know how it turns out. It'll be our first time to tile floor. We're prep-ing the floor right now. We'll start tiling next week.

Z is learning to read. I know it's sounds crazy, but he's been able to read a few words. CAT, DOG, BUS, DAD. It's hard to think of words that he knows, are only 3 letters, and follow the basic phonic rules.

Ca has been taking steps. He took 7 in a row on his birthday. He gets so excited about it. Cute, cute.

I posted my "2.5" pages on twopeas (a scrapper's website) and I got 9 comments. I was pretty proud of myself. I had never gotten that many before.
