Random Posting

So it's been a couple of weeks since I have posted anything so this will be a random posting.

The weeks have been so hectic with school, Blaine and trying to get everything together for this wedding. GESH, I am exhausted! So I'm in the process of putting together the wedding invitation, and I will be ecstatic when there done. So far they look good and I am excited to get them done and out of my sight. LOL It will be one more thing done and five hundred to go.

This past weekend I spent most of my time at Wood Memorial High School watching my brother play their sectional basketball game. The did advance to the final game and ended up winning their sectional by over 30 points. GO BRAVES! That is now 10 sectional titles in a row!!!! How awesome is that. So that mean this weekend we will be off to regionals. I am hoping they play good and win!

Sunday, I spent most of the day studying for a big test which by the way did not pay off at all, I ended up bombing the test on Monday. Which part of the problem was trying to study with a migraine headache and congestion. Not to mention I made the mistake of putting my purse under my desk during the test and with the last ten questions my phone rang twice. I looked up at the clocked when this happened and realized that it was A) either Blaines preschool teacher calling to tell me my brother hadn't picked him up yet or B) it was my brother telling me he was in a wreck with Blaine (and why we always think the worst of things I don't know but I did). So to make a long story short a missed most of the last ten questions on the test because I was worried about Blaine and my brother (which wouldn't really have matter if the phone had or hadn't rang I still would have missed most of those questions). And the phone calls were Blaines teacher and everything was okay.

So today I took Blaine to preschool which is one of the things I love doing. When I pick him up from preschool I always ask him "how preschool was?" and the most important question, "did you get in trouble at preschool today?" which it doesn't really matter if I ask or not a lot of the time he avoids the question. I usually know if he has been bad if he response is "let's talk about it later" or "I don't want to talk about it right now." However the conversation went something like this:

"what did you do at preschool today?"

I made an octopus.

WOW that's really neat. Did you listen to Mrs. Phillips today?

Yes, I did.

Now Blaine, did you get into trouble at preschool today?

I was just a little, little, little bit good.(blaine squinting his eyes, and showing me with his fingers what a little bit is)

Well does that mean you were a lot of bit bad. (which I try not to ask him if he was good or bad becuase I don't want him to think that he is bad so I don't want to place a stigma on him but sometimes I forget how I word my questions and I feel horrible after I ask them becuase I don't want Blaine or any child to think they are bad)

NO I was a little bad.

Now Blaine if I called Mrs. Phillips and asked her if you were good or bad what would Mrs. Phillips tell me.

She would say that I was good but a little bit bad.

Well what did you do that was bad.

I ran and hit my head on Rileys and I had ice on my eye.

Ohh, Well you know that your not suppose to run inside.

I know mommy, I'm sorry,I won't run again.

I know that I shouldn't be so hard on Blaine all the time but I have taken care of kids and I have always said that my child is going to be disciplined and listen and that I don't want my kid to be labeled as the bad kid and really I don't believe any child is a bad kid; Blaine is sweet and his a typical three year old but sometimes I forget that he is just three years old and expect to much from him at times. So I've been working on realizing that even though Blaine acts older than his age that he really is just three and accepting that he isn't going to listen all the time and his going to test my patience over and over and over. So there is my mommy rant for the day LOL.

Blaine went to his dad's tonight. When he got home he wanted to play a game so he decided he wanted to play Memory. Which by the way my mom thinks I let Blaine find most of the matches which isn't really true. Blaine is really good at remembering where things are and the majority of the time if I know where a match is I will get it and not let him win intentionally. And like most times we play we both end up with about the same number of matches. SO after an in depth memory game I put Blaine to bed and we got to read one of the library books we got last week then we read our Bible and just like every night he begged me to do my homework in there which I said no because he would then stay up late finding something to talk to me about just so he can stay awake for a few more minutes.

Well I guess that's enough of the randomness for tonight and now its time to do the homework that I have been putting off for a few days now.
