Not sure I can do this

so my friend's in labor at the hospital and i am watching her 1 yr old. he is so sweet and a really good baby but it is so much harder than i thought it would be having 2 at one time. i'm sure part of it is that he's in an unfamiliar environment and isn't sure of his limits and i'm not really sure what he's capable of doing physically but it is just draining. that, coupled w/that fact that i had to get up at 5 to go to gboro to get him, has just worn me out. i'm seriously counting the minutes until jared gets off work. we've talked about and i'd really like to have another baby soon but...i think i'll need to think about it a little more. i know that collin would be older so it wouldn't be a 1 yr old and a 2 yr old and that he would probably be more helpful (he's been so AWESOME today) but.....

break time's over. :-)

so, today, i was writing the alphabet on collin's magna doodle thing and he got every letter right until P. He was a little sketchy after that getting about 50% correct. we've come a long way in a week. my boy's getting so big!

abc's

so we've been trying very hard to work w/collin on his abc's. i am not the most patient person so it's kind of hard for me but jared and i have both sung the abc song countless times hoping that repetition will help. i've also made the extreme sacrfice of watching "super why" just b/c they do a lot w/the alphabet. right now collin's abc's go like this, "a, b, c, d, e, h, i, o, p, y, z". sometimes, it goes "a, b, c, 9, 10". at least he's learning. :-)
