We were out of milk again today so I snuck some “magic” powdered milk into Packers sippy and I even added the chocolate to disguise it. It didn’t work. Packer took one drink. Said, “This Yucky, Mom” and then continued with “uggh kkk” and abandoned the sippy which is not his style. Please never let us live on powdered milk!

Cali prefers food over nursing (sad). She’s almost 9 months. I just got her up from her nap and tried to nurse her but she saw crackers and didn’t need me.  It’s time for me to get used to the idea of nursing her less. She’s growing up so fast.

Benji is finally talking about preschool, he’s not in denial anymore. Today he kept asking what kind of school Pacen is in and then what is his school called. Camry was coaxing him along and I think he really is going to like it, after the first couple of times. He starts after Labor Day!

We decided that we are getting rid of our sandbox next week because we can make better use of that area and the kids never play in it anyway… well, wouldn’t you know that Packer has been out in the sandbox everyday this week! And Benji has even joined him a few times. Of course they start using it now.

I read a book this afternoon. I picked it up thinking, “I’m going to read this book responsibly, like a chapter a day when I need a break.” Well, my afternoon is now over and my book is also over. I’ll have to try the responsible reading another time. And I better get off the computer and return to realities before I get too far behind and have another one of THOSE DAYS.
