This and that - take 4

I bought a new magazine last night. I saw it on the rack and HAD to have it. You should buy it too if you have kids. There are GREAT recipes in there. If you live in my town, you can get it at the grocery store. If you want to see more about it, click here. I bought the Harvest Baking issue. I can't wait to make some of the stuff with the kids.

Jack update:
He sees the Neurologist on Monday. I'm not sure what the deal is with his left arm. It's just strange. I'm teaching him to sign, starting with more. He has some control of his right hand/arm, but his left hand does nothing when he tries to sign. It's very strange I tell you. He still either pins his left arm when he's in his high chair or it gets pinned and he could care less. Now, if it happens to his right arm then he gets VERY angry and wants it free - NOW. It's just very odd. I hope that Dr. Bunch can shed some light on the situation. Other than that he's doing well. He's trying to crawl. He's getting teeth like crazy - poor kid. He's got 2 of the 5 that are coming in on the top. The sprouted a second one on the bottom as well.

Yesterday I spoke to the owner of the salon that I'll be working at. My start date looks like the first week of November. I guess she's having my vanity custom built. That makes me laugh because I had a dream the other night that I was working there and she told me that I was at the wrong vanity. When she pointed to the one I was to work at - I was horrified. It was - large and in a semicircle. Pretty funny now, but in my dream I was horrified. I'm looking forward to spending more time with my family, but stepping down to part time dispatcher makes me sad. I love my job. Normally when you find a new job it's because you don't like the one you're currently at. That's just not the case for me - and it kinda sucks.

Nathan's attitude is going to drive me right up the wall. His mouth gets him in quite a bit of trouble. I had no idea that sending him to kindergarten would mean that he knows every single thing under the sun. Lucky me! I though that happened when he was a teenager. Not so much. DO NOT tell me that it will get worse. Let me live in Kerrie Land; allow me to think that this will all go away. I guess the good thing is that he likes school, however, it doesn't out weigh his lacking respect for his parents. Arg!

Have you ever heard of Kerrie Land? It's a wonderful, magical place. It's where I live. It's a place where children don't get hurt and people are kind to one another. It's the place in my brain that won't allow me to think that there is bad in this world. I'm often reminded that the reality of Kerrie Land doesn't exist, but I feel safe there. Think of it as your happy place if you will.

Because you've asked - yes, yesterdays picture were of my feet and my socks. I really like toe socks. I don't wear them all the time, but I enjoy them.

Peachy Pie is doing well. She often wants to know where Brother is. I'll say "Where is brother?" She says "He at gool". She isn't always awake before he goes to school. Sometimes she seems to miss him, other times she seems to be taking roll. She enjoys going to pick him up though.

Jack has therapy on Monday and Wednesday mornings. Claire thinks this is great. They bring all kinds of toys that they usually let her play with too. She identifies the colors she knows in Spanish. No wonder Natey was concerned about not knowing Spanish. Ha!

Other than that, things are the same. I don't feel as though I have anything of any real importance to say, so there is your update. Enjoy! :)
