Weekend...

I was reading something on facebook this morning that said " Yay it's Friday, oh wait I'm a mom." Or something like that anyways, I thought it was funny and true. Although it still feels like the weekend for me because I look forward to Jason being home. Tonight we are doing a date night in where he makes a special surprise dinner after the kids go to bed. He actually is a pretty good cook, I don't think I've been disappointed yet.

Yesterday my sister and I took the kids out to lunch at Burger King here. I never go there but since it was newly remodeled I figured the toys couldn't be too gross yet. They had a really good time and actually Reese met a little friend and it was so cute. I've never seen Reese interact so good with another little girl. The girl was a bit older but was very good with Reese and it was really cute to watch. They played all over the toys. Dallas mostly ran around and played with the smaller slide and the mesh on the toys. He ate most of both of their lunches lol. We went grocery shopping afterwards and then home. Dallas was so tired and went straight for a nap, Reese was being such a good girl I let her stay up and watch tv. She carried diapers into the bedroom and even put them away. Some days she's so sweet and it makes me happy that I can see her kind heart. She likes to do this thing where she says " I'm cold..brrr." And then she asks for hugs to warm her up. I like it, I was reading a lot about children her age and how to keep them safe from people who may do bad things. A couple things I've been working on is making her very aware of correct names of their body parts and to never make them give affection. You should ask them and if they don't want to that's their choice. So she's learning what the correct words are for her body parts not nicknames and Jason and I both ask first for affection. I'll ask " Reese can I have a hug?" Or " Reese do you want to give me a hug or kiss?" She usually says yes but sometimes no and that's okay...it should be her choice.

I have been reading truck books to Dallas and he likes that. His favorite is a Mickey truck book. It's a hard page book and has really big pictures of different kinds of trucks on it. He likes it and reading to them only helps for their talking development. He doesn't say much yet, but pediatrician said not to worry we are doing all the right things and he's not behind. Reese was kind of a late talker too, just depends. The kids both have dentist appointments next week. Dallas has to get a couple things checked on his teeth to make sure they are coming in right, they both will be getting a cleaning too.

Oh yeah, I got my hair cut last night! I cut over 9 inches off. My hair was super long and I was tired of how long it took to wash and dry and style it. I love the shortness.
