Thought I would start a new thing seeing as I'm not that great at blogging anymore.
Monday night I'll just write whatever comes to mind.
I can't wait for the middle of the night feedings to be over. Seriously, I don't remember hating them this much with Kasia and it's because I new I could sleep whenever she slept during they day, but now that I have Kasia and Ryu there is no way I can catch up on my sleep. He truly is a sweet baby though and I absolutely LOVE his smile. Hopefully, he can start sleeping through the nights soon. Kasia started at about 3 1/2 months, but I know every baby is different.
Trying really hard to get Kasia into preschool soon. She needs someone who can devote some time to learning and I just don't think I have it in me to do be super consistent with her. I want her to get some social time with other kids too. She sure is growing up though and she is EXTRA SASSY.. I can't believe she's going to be three soon!!!!
Having two kids means not a lot of time for Kjell. So I make sure I get my gym time scheduled with day care and get my booty there so I can have some Kjell time. I tell you what....getting back in shape is harder this time. A lot harder. Still have about 15 pounds to go to get to my pregnancy weight, but eating like I have been eating isn't going to help me in that area!!! It's time to get rid of the sugar and go low carb again. Not sure when I'll start that though. After the holidays???
So I've always had mixed feelings about Visiting Teaching. I've had good experiences, but I've also had bad ones. Bad companions, boring visiting teachees, or ones that just never call me back, or ones that I just didn't click with. I understand the purpose of Visiting teaching, but sometimes I don't feel like doing it and sometimes I don't care to be visited. I've yet tobe visited by my visiting teachers in my new ward. On Sunday (remember there is still a week left in October and even another Sunday), my visiting teachers dropped a plate of cookies off on my doorstep with a note saying, "sorry we missed you this month!" What? Are you kidding? No phone call, just a plate of cookies and you didn't even knock on the door (we were home!). They've still got a week to call and try to make a visit and instead they bake some cookies and leave a note like that. Lame. simply lame.
Peace out. I should go to bed.

Patience with others. That's all I have to say about that blog. Oh. And welcome to a busy mother(s world. Your mom was an amazing mother when I consider your frustrations I think back in amazement to how she raised you guys with not a whole lot of help from me. I was off being a coach. Oh I was so tired:)Love you so much and I know you will get your sleep soon. Does Kasia know how to dribble with both hands yet?JK. No really. Does she?
My visiting teachers came last month and literally sat there for AN HOUR and talked about every single health problem she and her family members have ever had. I'm not even joking! She didn't even ask me how I was doing or anything. So when they called to make an appointment this month I lied and told them I wasn't going to be home... and I don't even feel bad about it. I have no intention of letting them come over again, I don't need that kind of crap!
Ahhh... feels good to get that off my chest.
I hope that life falls into a good rhythm for you soon. It will! We need to get together sometime, we are moving back to Utah in 3 weeks.
I'm glad you feel the same way about visiting teaching. Its nice to know I'm not the only one. We have been in our new ward since April and today is the first day i will be taught by any visiting teachers. I get the purpose too but it is hard. Thank you for being such a good visiting teacher to me when we were in the same ward! PS your little guy is adorable!
It's awesome that you're making time for yourself- it's a hard thing to do!
I SO hear ya on visiting teaching. One sister on my list won't return my calls or emails. Last time I left her a message she called my companion back to say she wasn't free this month! It's awkward though cause she lives 2 houses away from me!
And Meg- you're moving??!
