way past my bedtime for reals

Well, might as well write since i'm still up this blasted late. Had a great day. Decided to just get some catching up done this morning so picked up the house, did a big load of dishes, got the laundry going, cleared off my bathroom counter, made beds, picked up endless toys, etc....made lunch for the kids and let them play outside for a bit and get some energy out. Then after lunch did Bible w/ the boys, where Evan said John 3:16 to me!!! been going over it with him since Monday, and at Awana last night his teacher told me he'd said it!! much to my surprise. She said they are allowed to help 2x, but with help he said it. Sure enough today, he belted it out w/ no help at all. Wow, so proud of this amazing kid of mine!!! Memorized 3 verses since school started and that was w/out having our Bible materials for a few weeks. so happy:) he's been doing a verse about once every 2 weeks or so, which i think is great for his age. Anywho, then after Bible, put wild man (Miles) down for nap. Forgot to add that i was roasting sweet potatoes and butternut squash and steaming red peppers and carrots during lunch. So i puree'd the veggies after Bible, then did school with Evan. Then went back to bagging the puree'd veggies and then changed outta my pajamas-HA-and got E set up w/ Starfall on my computer in the xtra bedroom as i did my 4 miles. Started feeling funky in the tummy around mile 3...wondering if it's bc i was dehydrated. seems i need to be drinking tons more. so i plan to do more drinking of the water the next few days and see how it affects my long run on sunday. didn't drink too much today and my stomach was queasy and not feeling right again after my run today and some during it too. ugh.

Anywho, E did awesome at school today. he is just doing so well. i think i right "awesome, and "he did perfect" in my book more than anything else. i hope he keeps up w/ this bc we are just flying right along. he is putting together words and sounding out words like crazy. we've been thru 6 blend ladders now and we did our 1st sight word today : the, so i think we're finally getting outta the K4 review stuff and into the real salami now!! so it's exciting to see him learn and grow every day. just seeing his writing from the 1st week of school to now is astounding. he really takes his time--too much sometimes--and makes it so beautiful. I think M will be another story when the time comes:) we'll see.

so after that, well in there between school/run, i made a new recipe: sweet potato and black bean lasagna. it was SOOOO good. need to do a slight bit of tweaking, but man it tasted great. but i think anything w/ ricotta and mozzerella is pretty insane. so i'm adding that to my list of go-to meals. very easy to make. and no meat, which is nice. need some def no meat nights for sure. wish i had a cow or some organic cheese lying around though. ugh.

then tonight me and Ash went to see "what's your number" or something like that. pretty corny but hilarious. got some good laughs. Anna Farris needs to step away from the botox or juviderm or whatever she's doing to her face. we were 2 of 4 ppl in the theater. they even shut the concession stand down mid-movie, which was bullcrap, bc i got completely parched and wanted a 20$ soda and i couldn't!! craziness. smalltown theaters, pshaw.

well, better hit it. was up trying to figure out dailymile.com bc i have come to the conclusion that i should be tracking every mile i run from here on out. should be anyways, but saw Aunt Mona had logged over however many thousand miles in her lifetime, enough to circle the globe 2.5x or some mess, so was like, wow!! i should be doing that! major runon sentence there. hhaa. so yeah, just fun. well, nighty.
