new swingset!

Our parents went in together and bought Micah a swingset for her birthday. My dad went to pick it up today and put it together for us. It is really neat. It has two swings, a glider, a slide and a little trampoline. I didn't figure she would get to play on it tonight because she was at her grandparent while Jeremy worked on the race car. They got home a few minutes ago, it was about 8:30, and she ran to the door and said, "Come watch me play!" So we went out and she jumped on the trampoline, swang on both swings, glided on the glider and went down the slide. Then she said "I'm going to start over!" So she did. I came in to get stuff ready for bed while she did her second round. As soon as she ran in the door she said, "That was SO AWSOME!" I'm glad she liked it and I am so glad she has something to play with in the yard other than the sand box. It's going to be a good summer!

I am struggling right now. What do you do when answers aren't coming? What do you do when no option seems like the right one? When every answer you do get is wait but you aren't sure what you are waiting for?

I have a giant child!!

We have known for awhile that Micah was tall for her age. People are always asking me if she is four. No, she is only three and her birthday was a little over a month ago. She had her three year check up today. These are her stats: she is 40 inches tall and weighs 36 lbs. That puts her in the 95th percentile for height and 78th for weight.

minty fresh toilet?

So yesterday I did some cleaning and used my new toilet cleaner for the first time. It is the same brand I always use but a different type, it was a two pack so it was cheaper. Well I squirt it in there and I start smelling spearmint. Who knew that toilets needed to smell minty fresh? I usually prefer the bleach smell that my old kind had, I know it is clean that way. And that my friends, is my random post of the day.
