I am not too sure why I am starting this blog, perhaps it is the "extra" time I find myself having while I sit and feed Sage. Maybe it is my own desire to have my thoughts validated by some random person. Do you ever notice that blogs are like the diary that you had as a kid? The cheap lock that held the book together and the threat you gave your sibling if they ever opened it or read it, and yet you knew they did. Or at least that was the way things were in my house.
Yesterday I took Sage for her six week check-up. I found out that she has gained four pounds and has grown four inches. I had a moment when I felt like I am woman! I marvel at how she is gaining all her nutrition from me. Both boys gave me trouble with breastfeeding, I always had to supplement with formula to satisfy their hunger. It is rather a neat feeling not have to go through the same process with Sage.
Ever notice how there is a direct relationship with how much time spent outside and how much energy kids have? Ethan had school all day yesterday which means when he gets home he is wired for sound! We try to spend time right after school playing outside before we start our evening routine. Yesterday we played street hockey. It is hilarious how Ethan tries to skew the rules to suit his needs. Our game had rules similar to hockey or soccer, it all depended on what gave Ethan the better advantage. The coolest part was watching how Ethan included Nolan and gave him a turn at firing the puck at Mom. It is great to watch them play together even if it is to gang up on me!
