Over the past week lots has happened and I have been too lazy and tired to write about it. I should have written it down as it came along because now I don't remember it all. On tuesday I took lunch to Eric and took Caleb to the library. He loves it there. He loves to look at books, they have some puzzles he loves to do, and now his favorite thing to do is play the games on the computer. He already has how to move the mouse down. He still clicks a little off but he is definitely getting better.
Wednesday I went to go do some inspections and I couldn't find some properties and drove around and around, and got so tired of not finding the properties I came home. I ended up seeing them but not realising it because the names and numbers were wrong or not on the house where I could see them.
Thursday I went to a primary meeting at Sister Moores house. She has a couple acres and lots of cool toys! The meeting was fine and Caleb had friends to play with from the other sisters kids. And then she had a lunch prepared for us. Caleb ate but only after I told him he had to eat to go on the 4 wheel motorcycle ride. He ate VERY fast after that! We went outside and looked at their pond and everything in it, and then we looked at their river and bridge. We threw rocks in the water and made lots of splashes. And then he got his first ATV ride. He got to sit in front of Brother Moore and put his hands on the handle bars and he even got to steer a little bit. He liked that a lot, and then he played in the river, and looked for bugs and stuff while the other kids got their rides. Then Caleb and I got to go on a ride. And we drove by this one pond and he kept pointing and saying this is where the pollywogs live. I was like what is he saying??? And then he always followed that with Pollywogs are like frogs. WOW He learned that while riding on an ATV they should have school on ATV's too. All the kids would be geniuses and graduating by 12! It's a cool thought, but it would never work.
So anyway Friday we wanted to take the plants we had planted on sunday out to plant them at grandmas but they weren't quite ready to be planted yet. So we went out there to try and get the tiller working. That was a bust. We have to wait till George gets up here. Maybe he can get it working. So we just spent the day there, and came home and on the way did some inspections. And then helped another sister move.
And then today we went to a birthday party for about an hour and then went to Ashland for our stake conference. We both had to go to the leadership training. So we had to take Caleb. He was pretty good for Eric the first hour and then he fell asleep in the general adult session. So he was really good then! Between the leadership and adult sessions we had about an hour and we went to eat dinner and we stopped at JCpenneys to see if they had any more of their little vest suits. We had bought them there around easter last year at a great price. They didn't have any of those this time but they had this one proper suit. It was sooo cute. So we got it for Caleb. This one should last for a year and a half maybe two.
So a lot of small things going on this week. Caleb still struggles with potty training. We have had several incidents where he doesn't even try to go to the bathroom he just spreads his legs and goes on the carpet. It drive me crazy. What do I do with that? Do I yell at him and lecture him to let him know it's not okay, tell him it's okay and try harder next time, put him in time out, try and teach him and he starts crying because I don't do it very well? What? I would LOVE something that WORKS. I am tired. I am feeling depressed because I did not get pregnant this month. I let Caleb stay up late tonight. I am going to pay for it tomorrow!
