Aedan: 31 Months, Week 1
This week Aedan and I spent the beginning of the week getting caught back up after being gone for a week, and hanging out at home, as we didn't have too many plans to be anywhere in particular.
I have been blessed with how good of a sleeper Aedan has been for most of his life. Ever since he was an infant, he has fallen asleep at nap time while being rocked. We get to watch him fall asleep and then lay him gently down in his bed. Well, on Tuesday he did not sleep very long which is very unlike him. It took me awhile to get him to sleep and he only slept about an hour. I know the time will come when he won't nap as well anymore, and I know I am lucky because at 2 1/2 Samantha was already fighting naps on a pretty consistent basis, so I will enjoy the naps and quiet afternoons to myself while I can.
Some days when Samantha comes from school she doesn't have much to say about how her day went, or if we directly ask her questions she won't remember. However, often, as the night goes on, she remembers stories that are sparked in her memory by something that happens throughout our evening. On Tuesday evening Samantha told us about how she was telling Stephanie, a girl in her class, the story about Jesus being born. She said that she didn't think Stephanie had ever heard the story before. I asked her when she was talking to her about this, and Samantha said it was at recess on the playground. I love that it comes to naturally to Samantha to talk to others about Jesus. I wish that I could only have half of her bravery in talking to others. I hope that she will always feel free and open to share about Jesus with her friends. The other story Ben told me about that night when we went to sleep. There is a little girl in Samantha's class that is a little overweight, and apparently there are some girls that pick on this girl and tell her that she can't play with them. Well, one day when the girl was being left out, Samantha told them it wasn't nice for them to say and do things like that, and she told this little girl something that we always tell Samantha, "It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, but only what you are like on the inside." When I heard that story, I couldn't help but tear up. I was so proud of Samantha for reaching out to a little girl that was left out, for standing up for her, and for helping her to feel loved and noticed, even for just one minute. Who knows how much Samantha's words meant to this little girl, but I'd like to think that it made her feel so much better, and that she has a friend in Samantha. Both these stories show how great of a heart Samantha has for other people. She can make connections, think deeper, and relate on a more personal level than probably most kids her age. I am so proud of my little girl.
I volunteered in Samantha's class in the morning on Wednesday, and I was lucky enough to be there at a time when it was Samantha's turn to do the calendar. They have their calendar all through their Smart Board, and it included counting the number of students present and absent, matching shapes and colors with their word, and writing letters. Samantha knew exactly what she was doing, knew what buttons to press to reset and change the pages, and was quick to do her job on the board. At one point, she was able to call on a couple friends to write the letters for the day as well. Of course, every one raised their hand, eagerly saying, "Pick me, pick me!" Samantha said to her classmates, "I'm only going to pick you if you are sitting down quietly, and not raising your hand or pointing at yourself." This made me laugh because you can certainly tell that she is the daughter of two teachers. When she said this, the class instantly became quiet. Then, she was very encouraging to her classmates as they wrote their letters. Again, this was another moment that I beamed with pride as I watched my daughter interact with her teacher and classmates. She is a pretty wonderful little girl.
I got to go around the classroom and help with Writer's Workshop as the students began telling stories as their new writing topic. Samantha chose to write about the time in Upland when her and Aedan were playing downstairs with Daddy, and Aedan accidentally closed the door on Samantha's finger. I thought it was funny that she chose that story to tell. She sat write down and got to work on her story, whereas some kids needed a lot of direction and guidance. I am so glad that she is doing so well and being so respectful at school.
For all the positive stories and experiences I had with Samantha, on Wednesday evening she just lost it with me. These Monday and Wednesday evenings on our own while Daddy teaches his late classes have certainly taken their toll on our family this semester, and I am so glad they are almost over. Samantha was tired and hungry, and she just couldn't handle her behavior anymore. She screamed, threw a fit, and right now I can't even remember what it was about, but she got sent to her room for awhile to calm down. The time right before dinner is always the hardest because both kids want attention, but I have to make dinner, so they are left to play on their own. However, when they are tired, they don't always get along the best, meaning they fight and argue more, and I have to stop what I'm doing to help them resolve their differences, meaning it's actually delaying the meal that will help them act less cranky. Nights on my own are always more hectic in preparing, cleaning up, and often giving the kids baths and, of course, putting them to bed on my own. It will be so nice to be back to normal next semester, to have Ben home for dinner and bed time every night. That will help us give more time together and more attention for the kids.
I feel like Aedan and I didn't do many interesting things this week because as I write this I can't even remember what we did. We played outside some in the little bit of snow we got, and I was able to finish hanging up our icicle lights around the roof of our house. Other than that, we really just hung out around the house together. I have been trying to get exercise in every day, sometimes while he is with me and sometimes at night. Now that winter is here, I need to start rethinking how Aedan and I are going to spend our time. I want to make my time count with him, and playing at home is fun, but it's hard not having many places to take him, especially where he can interact with other kids. However, I would also really like to start doing more preschool-type activities with Aedan, like I did with Samantha when she was his age. I still have all my lesson plans typed up that I could refer back to, and I think it would be interesting to see how he enjoyed the same type of activities. I know back when I was home with Samantha, doing preschool two to three days a week helped give purpose and structure to our week. Aedan knows all his numbers through ten and is beginning to learn letters as well, so I need to put preschool with Mommy into our weekly time together soon, maybe we can start that after Christmas break.
Since Aedan had not been napping quite as well lately, I decided to take this picture of him after he fell asleep on Thursday afternoon. He is just too precious falling asleep on my lap every day, rubbing his little paci with his right hand, his head propped up in the crook of my elbow, and his left hand eventually falling limp to his side. The other reason I took this picture is because we are now letting Aedan sleep with his little blue elephant blankie, just like the pink blankie that Samantha has slept with since she was a baby. We know that he will eventually have to give up his paci, and we came up with the idea to let him sleep with both his blankie and paci as a way to help him transition. Maybe he can think of the blankie as his comfort object and not be as upset to sleep without his paci. This was his first time sleeping with his blankie, and you can see it tucked right up under his arm. When I laid him down in his bed, he cuddled right up with it as well. We'll see if our strategy works!
Since Samantha is getting older and needs more privacy than she used to, we have started bathing the kids separately. In fact, we give Samantha the choice between taking a bath or a shower, and she often chooses to take a shower. We are working on teaching her how to shampoo and rinse her hair, and she's pretty good at washing her body. So after she was done in the shower, I gave Aedan a bath and figured I don't have many videos or pictures of how he plays in the bath. (I'm sure it's already true that we have less pictures and videos of him since he is the second kid.) At first I thought that he would miss not having Samantha to play with in the bath, but I think he's actually enjoying having the tub to himself, playing with any toy he wants, and just having some time one-on-one with us. He enjoyed playing the cups, splashing it up in the air like a volcano (something Sissy taught him how to do), and pouring water onto his tummy. He's such a cute kid.
On Friday I took a sub job in a second grade class at Lincoln Elementary. I was excited to be in an elementary classroom as the main teacher, and it was the first time I was solely in charge of a classroom of kids besides for my day in junior high/high school. Every other job I have either had an aide to help me, or I was the aide. Second grade is a good grade, and I felt confident in my ability to take charge in the classroom. The teacher left me really organized and detailed plans that were easy to follow. The kids were a little chatty at times, but I used their behavior chart to move their clips up or down based on their behavior. The teacher didn't know who I was or my experience with teaching in the past, so she didn't leave too complicated of work for me to have the kids do, which sometimes makes it more difficult, I think, because their schedule and workload is different than what they usually do with their regular teacher. They did some work and games on their iPads, we did some math and some social studies. I didn't have much of a break for most of the day because their only special time was in the morning during which we had an assembly instead, and I had afternoon recess duty. The day went by so much faster when I was solely responsible for the class, and I really enjoyed being there and getting to know the students. For a half an hour in the afternoon, we went over to a third grade class for reading buddies, and I got a chance to talk to that teacher for a little while about her experience getting a job in Sault Ste. Marie. Then, at the end of the day she told me that the teacher I was subbing for wanted me to leave my name and number in case they or anyone else at Lincoln needed a sub on another Friday. I took that as a good sign because they thought I did a good job, and they would be willing to have me back. I am really enjoying my time getting back into the classroom, and I'm so glad that Ben can stay home with Aedan while I get a chance to get out and work one day a week.
Friday night we had plans to go on a couples date with some friends. Brooks and Jill invited us to go to a Madrigal Dinner at Kewadin Casino that was a fundraiser for EUP Hospice. They had an extra ticket, so we essentially only had to pay for one of us to go. We were able to find a babysitter at the last minute, and we were excited to be able to go out on a date with some other couples as a way to be together and to meet other people. Moving to a new place is always difficult, and neither Ben nor I really feel like we know many people or have many friends yet. The babysitter, Hannah, came over about 5:30, and we had just started the kids on eating some homemade pizza. I showed her around and told her the bedtime routine before Ben and I headed out to meet people at the casino at 6:00. As we were leaving the house, Hannah told Samantha to sit down in her chair in a little bit of a sterner voice, since she had already been reminded several times by us, and you could tell Samantha was not happy to be reprimanded by the babysitter. The next day Samantha said that she liked our previous babysitter, Katie, better than Hannah, and I think the reason why is because of that moment when she was reprimanded. She didn't want a babysitter that would actually follow through and hold her to a certain expectation, which of course was fine by us for Hannah to do that with Samantha. Kids are so funny in what they find to be a big deal.
At the casino we met up with Brooks, Jill, and another couple, Todd and Carolyn, who are actually the parents of Luke from Samantha's kindergarten class. For the first hour, we had cheese, crackers, and wassail in the lobby area, giving us all a chance to talk, catch up, and get to know one another. It was fun talking with other adults, and I was so glad that Ben had the chance to talk with some other men that his personality meshed well with. I enjoyed talking with Carolyn about our experiences having children in kindergarten at Bahweting. At 7:00, the program started with trumpets, music, and dancing, and we were allowed to enter the room to find our table. We were all very hungry, especially since none of us are used to eating this late in the evening. Plus, Ben and I signed up for Weight Watchers on Black Friday, so we are really trying to be conscious of what and how much we're eating. Knowing that we were going to be eating more than usual on Friday night, we at a very light salad for lunch so that we could save our points for that night. There was quite a bit of the show first before they started serving the food, and it was all a little bit cheesy, but it was a fun experience. Part of a madrigal dinner included eating all of our food with our fingers. We had a stuffed Cornish hen, cooked carrots, small potatoes, and rolls. Then, we had a bread pudding type dish for dessert. The show lasted until about 9:15, and then we came back home to relieve our babysitter and see how the evening went. She said that the kids were really good, and that she wasn't used to kids being so respectful for the first time watching them. We were glad to be able to entrust our kids to a babysitter so that we could have a unique night out with friends. After a day of working and then being out in a social situation, I was exhausted on Friday night and ready to tuck myself into bed.
On Saturday, probably against my better judgment, we took the kids to this elf breakfast at a local church of a mom from MOPS. In fact, we all slept in until almost 8:00 that morning which is typically unheard of in our house. We must have all been tired from our busy Friday night. They were serving breakfast there, so we didn't eat breakfast before we left, but the kids were super hungry and had a hard time waiting patiently for breakfast to be served at 9:30. More people came than they expected, so everyone was crowding around tables. I don't know if I was just tired or overly sensitive, but being at this event made me even more aware of the fact that I don't really know anyone here. We were in a room surrounded by other families, but we just sat with our own family together. I saw other moms and their families from MOPS, and they smiled and said hello, but they had people they knew and plans with other families, so no one we knew chose to sit with us or include us at their table. I felt so lonely and friendless that morning. Moving to a community where you don't know anyone is so isolating. This is the first place we moved where we had no previous connection with anyone before moving here. It's difficult to break through and meet new people. Our kids enjoyed their breakfast of sausage wrapped in pancake on a stick, fruit on a stick to look like the grinch, a marshmallow snowman, and some yogurt. Then, we did some crafts like tracing their hands to make a Christmas tree and decorating it with sparkly stickers, making a reindeer candy cane, and decorating a cookie. It was pretty packed in the room and difficult to get around, making Ben feel a little overwhelmed and claustrophobic. They had story time and songs at 10:40, but we had to leave for ice skating, so we didn't get to go to that. It was a fun event, but it probably would have been a more relaxing morning if I would have chosen to just stay home and spend time with Ben and the kids. I just felt like they don't have many family friendly community events, so we should take advantage of the ones that do come up.
By the time we got to ice skating, the kids had already had a busy morning, and they must have had a rough night with the babysitter because they were both acting very tired and grumpy. Aedan didn't want to listen to his teacher and just sat on the ice and said, "No." Samantha was a bit spacey, wasn't concentrating, and needed a lot of reminders to keep going during the free skate part of her lesson. However, the best outcome of the day was that Aedan learned how to walk on the ice because he didn't want to be with the guy teacher. He wanted to be with the lady teacher that was pulled to teach Samantha's class since her teacher was gone for the day. Trying to get to this teacher gave him the motivation to walk across the ice to get to her. It was so great to see him walking on the ice. I was so proud of him and all he has accomplished during his first ever session of ice skating, going from sitting on the ice crying during his first lesson to now standing and walking all on his own. It's so awesome to see your kids learn new skills.

By the time we got to ice skating, the kids had already had a busy morning, and they must have had a rough night with the babysitter because they were both acting very tired and grumpy.

I was so proud of him and all he has accomplished during his first ever session of ice skating, going from sitting on the ice crying during his first lesson to now standing and walking all on his own. It's so awesome to see your kids learn new skills.
We had tickets to the LSSU hockey game on Saturday night, so we told the kids they needed to take a good nap that afternoon so that we could stay out late that night. They were both really tired and must not have slept well on Friday night. Ben put Samantha down, and I put Aedan down. Samantha went right to sleep and had a good nap. Aedan took awhile to calm down, but ended up falling asleep just like he usually does. However, he suddenly woke up, almost like he thought he had already woken up from his nap. I tried to keep rocking him to see if he would fall back asleep, but he just started wiggling and playing around so I decided to just lay him down in his bed. Well, he isn't used to falling asleep for nap time on his own, so he just laid in his bed talking and making noise for quite some time. It was making me really frustrated because he was so tired but wasn't sleeping which would then impact our plans for that night. I didn't want one of us to have to stay home with Aedan that night. Both Ben and I went into his room a couple times to tell him to go to sleep, even taking his paci away as a threat one time. Eventually he fell asleep, but it was probably almost 3:00 by the time he did. At that point Samantha was already waking up after a good nap, and we ended up having to wake Aedan up at 5:00 so that he didn't sleep too long into the evening.
Ben and I were craving some good pizza, so we ordered ahead of time for Superior Pizza out in Brimley and drove the 20 minutes out to the restaurant to eat. The pizza is really good and definitely satisfied our craving. From there, we drove back home, parked the car at home, and walked down the street to the Norris Center for the hockey game. We went up to a special area that was designated for the political science club so that Ben could make an appearance, and the kids enjoyed seeing the game from a different perspective. The pep band played nearby and Aedan really enjoyed standing up on my lap so he could see them as well as hear them. After spending one period in the special area, we decided to walk around for a little while before going back to our own seats down near the ice. We watched the game for the rest of the period, but toward the end the kids were starting to get restless in their seats. We kept having to remind them to sit down, and we tried to discuss the game with them to keep up their interest, but they were getting tired. So after throwing their pucks on the ice, I took the kids home to put them to bed while Ben stayed to relax and watch the rest of the game. I don't think our kids are quite ready to be going to sports games regularly, especially when it is past their bed time. I was glad that Ben was able to stay and enjoy the game though.
On Sunday morning we all slept in longer than we intended to, but we were all pretty tired from being out at the hockey game the night before. Ben and I are back to volunteering in teaching the small groups for Kids Connection, so we went to both services so that we could attend church and teach the kids. Samantha and Aedan do pretty well when we stay there for both services, which is nice, but it does make for a long morning sometimes.
I forget exactly when this happened over the past week, but I'm thinking it was sometime over the weekend. Anyways, we put Aedan to bed, and he kept waking up crying. We couldn't figure out what was wrong, and Aedan didn't give us much of an explanation when we went into his room. Finally, I went into his room again after Ben and I had already gotten into bed ourselves. Aedan didn't have his paci, so I helped him find it and when I touched it, I realized that it was broken on both sides because he had been biting and chewing on it too much lately. He kept saying, "No want that paci," probably because it felt weird to suck on it with holes in the sides. Regardless of that, it wasn't safe anymore for him to use that paci, so I told Aedan we had to throw it away. I got his extra paci out of his diaper bag for him to use that night, but I knew that we were down to one paci now, so the days of him falling asleep with a paci would probably be coming to an end sometime soon. Back when we bought this set of pacis, we decided we wouldn't buy any more, and that when these broke we would wean Aedan off from using a paci when he sleeps. I was glad that we already started letting him sleep with his blankie in hopes that it would be a good transitional object between having a paci and then not having a paci. Who knows how often he even uses his paci during the night while he sleeps, but he certainly uses it to fall asleep, so we will see how this transition goes when we get there.
After dinner on Sunday night, we made hot chocolate with marshmallows since it had been snowing all day and was going to continue snowing all night, the perfect time to enjoy hot chocolate. Aedan had never really had hot chocolate before, so he was super excited. Samantha and I shared hot chocolate quite a bit in Oxford after we played in the snow together. Aedan was very intent on eating all of his marshmallows before drinking any of the hot chocolate. Samantha spread her marshmallows out throughout her drink. They really enjoyed their special dessert.

On Monday Aedan and I did our normal routine of grocery shopping, but he was begging to play in the snow, so after finishing our lunch, we got all bundled up and went outside to play for awhile before nap time. He loved the snow, and just ran around in it for quite awhile. We made snow balls, I tried to make a snow man but Aedan just wanted to knock it over, and I even pulled him around the back yard on our old, broken sled for a little while. We bought new sleds and snow brick making tools, so it will be fun when we can all go out and play in the snow together. I'm sure we will have plenty more opportunities to play in the snow this winter. :)
I asked Aedan if I could take his picture, and he stopped to give me the cutest, cheesiest grin I've ever seen. I love when he smiles and I can see all his teeth. He is an adorable kid, and it was fun watching him enjoy the first time he's really played in snow this year.
That evening before we had dinner, I thought it would be fun to let the kids go out and play in the snow together for awhile, but it's so hard because it gets so dark so early, so they were basically playing in the dark at 5:15. I tried to take some pictures and videos of them together, but it was too dark and the flash just caught them off guard. Nevertheless, they were having a fun time in the snow together, and Samantha made this mound of snow that they stuck sticks into and decided to call Annabelle. I know this is just the beginning of the snow for us newbies to the U.P. It will be interesting to see how the winter progresses and how much snow we actually get. The kids are enjoying it, and I have to admit that it is pretty to much snow fall from the sky and blanket the ground in soft, white powder.
