Where did he go?

Where did the time go?  Seriously.  Today my little boy is seventeen months old!  It seems just like yesterday that we went to the hospital to go for our scheduled c-section to deliver our son.  And now here we are seventeen months later.  Time flew.  I can't believe how fast time flies when you have children.  I just can't believe my little girl is already three and in school.  I better savor every moment that I can because before I know it, I will be going prom dress shopping with her and visiting colleges with her.

My little boy has been fighting a cold again.  He keeps napping for a long time and then at bed time it makes putting him to bed so difficult.  I look forward to the days when we tell the kids that it is bed time and they go to their own beds, willingly and acceptingly (is that a word?).  I really can't wait for that moment.

Today was a challenging and trying day for me.  I wanted to relax and craft and make a gift for my daughter's teachers.  But instead, I got to sit and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with my daughter while my son napped and thought in my head what I wanted to make for them.  My husband has had to do some stuff for work, so I was letting him do his thing and I was watching and taking care of our kids.

My daughter decided to take a really late nap today.  She just fell asleep at 4pm!  So, just for tonight, my husband and I decided to have bed time be at 8pm.  The boy ended up napping for a really long time and the girl decided to nap really late.  So we decided a late bed time might be the better alternative instead of having to sit/lay down and wait for them to fall asleep.  I just hope this later bed time will get them both to fall asleep easily and sleep all night long.  I miss the days when I would go to sleep and I didn't hear a baby cry or a kid cry.
