Jayden is at that phase where he knows what he wants but he doesn't yet have the language to tell you what he wants. That being the case we have a whole lot of pointing and grunting going on. Right now he points and says...uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh, which I think means...oh look I like that can I have it...throw in a few his some babbling and that is our language attempts.
I am trying to put meaning to the words and grunts he makes to make communication better. Some that I can decipher....
"nuh"--with lip smacking...means nurse....we are working on weaning but not there yet.
pointing and smacking and grunting at fridge....means I want some food.
ough...means outside.
ba...bath
other words he says regularly
mama---mom
da da---means he's looking for Dan
da-dee--what he says to Dan and about him.

True or False
...I have a headache right now.
...change is on the horizon and while I can see it taking shape I don't know if I will like the outcome of said change.
...it's 100 degrees or higher outside and I am tired of it.
...I'm struggling with the ages and stages of my children.
...I sometimes feel underappreciated by the members of my family.
...bills make me stressed.
...Jayden is walking around the house with a broom and does this daily!
...Jaron is super sweet at times and super frustrating at other times.
...I've been using the same brand of deoderant since high school.
...I need to moisturize.
....I am thankful for dollar store flip flops and wear them practically every day.
...I forgot a load of laundry in the washer for 4 days.
...my hands hurt from cutting out small pieces of stuff.
All of the above is absoluetly true....not a falsehood in the bunch...and that's okay.

HEATWAVE
I have that song from White Christmas in my head tonight...."We're having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave oh the temperatures rising it isn't surprising she certainly can...CANCAN"
Well I can't CanCan...well I can try but it certainly isn't pretty. It's just HOT here. We are experience record breaking heat, drought conditions and it's just yucky right now. I like hot weather but it is scary hot.
Praying for rain, cooler temps and believe it or not...I'm actually hoping for SNOW this winter....I do believe that the heat is messing with my brain cells cuz I don't really like SNOW at all..

A New Phase of Life
Janea has joined the youth group! I can't believe that she is now old enough to be a member of the youth group. I can't believe she is going to be in 7th grade!
We have now entered the years of youth activities, nighttime activities and busier schedules!
Where did my little girl go? I can't believe she is getting so be so grown up!
