The house is quiet and I am pretty much here alone. Tegan is here, but she is sleeping. Shane is at breakfast with some friends and Ethan went with his Nana to bible study. I haven’t been alone like this in forever. Even if the kids are sleeping, Shane is usually here. He is usually working, but he is still here. I don’t know what to do with myself. I had planned on walking, but the girl is asleep. I was thinking about sleeping myself, but she will be up soon. Oh…Shane’s home. Ha ha. That was short lived:)

I guess you got to blog. Ha. It is a foreign thing for me, too. Dean and Lael don’t nap anymore so its been MONTHS since I had that experience.

Oh, so sad. I am glad that you had a little time to yourself but not nearly enough. Home alone is such a strange thing. I really can not remember when that has happened for me either. I sometimes have time alone..work, errands but never home time alone. Sorry it did not last long. Hopefully you and Shane got to enjoy eachothers company before Tegan woke up.

No, he went right into the office and she woke up right then. He wasn’t loud, but it was enough for her to wake up. Oh well. It was kind of funny. I think I got 15 minutes. But, Wednesday mornings he will be gone to prayer and sometimes breakfast and Ethan will be gone from 8:45 to 11:15, so I may get another chance. It will also give me some one on one time with Tegan, so it is good.

Yeah, alone time, what is that? I can’t remember when I had a chance to be alone and get to do something “fun” with that time. Whenever the little ones are asleep, I am so focused on what needs to get done around the house that I really don’t take some much needed me-time. Unless, of course, I am sleeping too. (does that count?)
When I am out with the kids, I can’t help but think back to a time when I thought going shopping with one child was hard. It is nothing compared to going out with two! I really wish I went out more back then. Sigh, hindsight…

Kristine, how many kids do you have and how old are they? I would love to hear about what you are up to, where you live, etc…email me if you want erikabonhamatgmaildotcom. I have often thought that looking back, one kid was cake compared to two. I thought it was hard with one, but one seems so easy now. And two probably is a lot easier than three….
