Parenting Thoughts

This morning I took Nathaniel to a baby play group and was self scolding for letting him mouth the toys wehn I saw other moms diligently taking each toy out of their baby's mouths. I started thinking, am I being irresponsible or just plain lazy. Should I be chasing him around not letting him chew the toys when thats pretty much all he wants to do.
Now, the boys are outside and I wont let them go in the front because I think its safer to be in the back away from the street. They say its too hard to ride their bikes back there.
Is it possible to be too lackadasical and too over protectibe in one day?

Party Failure

Well its official, my book party was a complete failure. I spent a good amount of time feeling sorry for myself but I am pretty much over it. DOnt think i will be trying again anythime soon though, will stick with other ppl's houses. I think the books are great, they will sell themselves, I will let other ppl find freinds who will show up.

Fish
















Our biggest pet ambition around here, at least for now, is the fish. But, they recently got a home upgrade.

Van- something I am loving











I am a bit behind here, we bought this van a month ago, but here it is. 2003 Chevy Venture probably the nicest vehicle we have ever owned. Definetly happy with it. I entered it on a list of things I love at tidy mom- check it out.

Party Day

So.. all week I have been cleaning house and begging ppl to come and now... I am not sure I have any yeses. I only had four to start with and one is sick, one never confirmed, one was a freind of the sick person, and one I still have4 to call and remind, I am a bit nervous she will back out too. Oh well at least I have a clean house

Usborne Books

Well I have decided to try selling Children's books. I hope it works. I must admit I am a bit nervous since it is based on home shows and individual sales and I have has such a hard time making freinds here. I am exited on one hand because they are neat books and they arent that expensive. I think I could do well, if I can get ppl to come to my house and try it. That is the hitch. I feel like such an outsider here. Now that I have done it I am so nervous no one will respond to me at all cause I just dont have freinds here. oh well, guess I am only out a few bucks if it doesnt work but I am really hoping it will.
