Torturing Toby

FWD:

Lazy saturday watching elmo

mommy's little helper

Aidan has hit the age where he wants to help out with everything, even things he's just not ready for yet. The first thing was wanting to carry his own lunch bag. That was cute and it's not harmful at all. The next big thing was him wanting to help feed Toby. It's quite amazing and I can't wait until he can do it on his own but for now, I'll continue to be the steady hand holding his hand to get the food scoop from large container to small dog bowl ten long feet away. It's much easier than cleaning up one cup of dog food from the floor morning and evening.

Today I was going to vacuum but there were dog toys in between Aidan toys. Once the Aidan toys were picked up, Aidan picked up Toby toys and put them in Toby's toy basket. Perfect. Somehow the dog manages to leave his toys out all over the place more than the boy, so maybe Aidan and I can work out a deal. Once all the dog toys were up Aidan starting running around like crazy and couldn't wait to help get the vacuum out. Aidan didn't really want to help though, he just wanted a good excuse to run around while I vacuumed. Once it was off he was quite upset. Have you ever met a kid who loves the vacuum? The floor can only get so clean my dear.

My thoughts on life right now:
Aidan is the best.
Sean and I are truly blessed.
I hope this deal at work goes well for Sean since he's worked so hard on it.
My students are quite interesting this year, but they've taught me a lot. I just hope I can do the same for them.
I need some new clothes. A real wardrobe. With style.
I never get to bed early enough.

GO PHILS!!!

They're in the playoffs and we're excited! Aidan's going to his first playoff game tomorrow afternoon (not cool MLB, can't we get one evening game one of these years?)! It's going to be a warm, October afternoon. Perfect for playoff baseball.

Aidan's got his bottom cuspid teeth coming in, I believe. The top ones came in without any side effects. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know he was teething until I saw them poking through the gums. The bottom ones are proving to be a little more difficult though. I can't wait until they're in so he feels better and keeps his fingers out of his mouth.

Sean plays basketball on Wednesday nights now that school is back in session and he came home tonight hobbling on one of his ankles. He said he sprained it. His biggest concern is that he hopes it feels better before the weekend so he can dance at the wedding we're going to in Rhode Island. My biggest concern is that I won't get stuck driving, at least not the whole 5.5 hours. I was looking forward to a nice car nap.

As for me, I'm doing pretty good minus a sore tooth. I went to the dentist yesterday in hopes of it getting fixed and now I'm hoping the pain is just lingering from the work that was done. I'm thrilled to announce that we've got a signed agreement to settle our contract at school finally after not having one all last year and this year. Hopefully by Christmas I'll get a raise (albeit a miniscule one since we're one of the lowest paying districts in the area) and will be able to start saving more!

My thoughts on life right now:
Aidan is adorable.
I love taking him places.
I'm excited for the wedding and going away but incredible sad to leave Aidan.
Sean better take some meds and rest his ankle.
I hope this tooth feels better.
Yay for teacher contracts!
I'M SO BLESSED.

Worst most dramatic reaction yet when the Phanatic left
