My boys are now both attending the same summer program at the elementary school - yesterday was their first day. This is the first time that they have been able to spend their weekdays together. They were always at different day cares/schools until now. It's kinda like a social experiment...how will they handle spending so much time together? Will Bubba's overly territorial nature cause him to resent Na-na being there? Or will they strengthen their relationship? Well, so far it seems that Bubba is not acting at all territorial, but rather protective of his little bro'. He kept his arm wrapped around Na-na for most of the day, spent a lot of time making sure his brother understood the rules at the school and made sure that he and Na-na were in the same clubs. I think that perhaps there is an element of control involved...but for now, it's cute.
I haven't been "cooking" as much the last couple of days. My schedule has been extremely packed, resulting in what I like to call "helpy-selfy" nights. In other words, everyone eats what they feel like which usually means something like pb&j, mac&cheese, and/or cereal for dinner. Tonight, I swear we will all eat a real meal - not sure what that will be yet, but it will happen. :)
Finally, I just realized today that I have never directly mentioned my husband in this blog... read into that whatever you want, I'm sure it means nothing. I'll have to give him a name. Well... since his middle name is Eugene, which I think explains a lot about his personality, I'll use that. Ok, so I thought I'd share a funny story about good ol' Eugene. The other day he was giving me crap about the fact that I have been spending a lot of time reading the Twilight series lately (I swear that it has not been contributing to the increase in "helpy-selfy" nights. Really!). Anyway, I said that perhaps if he EVER bothered to sit down and read a book he might understand how you can get hooked into a story; that I just truly enjoy reading and haven't been able to find time for it until recently. He proceeded to boast that he also likes to read - the man has only read ONE, yes ONE, book since we've been married (unless you count the Cycle Trader, The Reader, Rolling Stone magazine, etc.). He then tells me that he doesn't read as often as he would like 'cause he doesn't want to appear to be too "geeky". Here's where I open my mouth and say something I regret... I told him that I think that there's something really sexy about a man who likes to read, craves learning, and wants to expand his knowledge. Now every chance he gets he is saying things like, "hey baby, I'm reading a book here...does that make you hot?" Fabulous. I have my theory about men, their happiness and how it ties directly to their sex lives, but perhaps I'll save that for another post. This post is already quite long and I should really get back to work - hehehe.
