Goddess is taking a break from Thursday Theater theater this week… but I’ll still link back to her cuz it was her idea
Our town has two nights of fireworks! The first night was beautiful; the second night was a little bit chilly.

Cheryl over at Twinfatuation hosts this one. Go on over to see who else is playing – and join in too!
In honor of being in it for 2 years now, I thought I’d post a picture that I grabbed from the internet when we first started looking at the house.

Funny movie. Not great to deal with in real life.
Burke has been having some trouble lately…he’s been lashing out when he gets angry – and poor Maggie has been the one to take the ‘beating’ from him.
Over the past week, the following things have happened:
On the flip side, he’s also gone in to soothe Logan on multiple mornings. And the nanny tells me that he had a paper towel tube that he wanted Maggie to look through at him and she wouldn’t. He was using his words and saying “please, Please, PLEASE, Maggie??” And she still wouldn’t. So he said “I’m very angry!” but didn’t take any action. (This was in between the biting incident and the baseball bat incident.)
There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to when he does or doesn’t take action (sometimes he’s tired, sometimes he’s not. Sometimes he’s had too much sugar, other times he hasn’t). All of these situations have produced varying results.
I try to let him know that the anger he is feeling is absolutely okay, but that the action he is taking is not.
Any ideas out there?

Our town celebrates the 4th of July all week! They have a carnival set up in the high school parking lot and lots of festivities (read: food) on the town common. Burke and Maggie had a wonderful time and enjoyed their very first carnival rides!

Goddess hosts Thursday Theater. Wanna join in? Go add your name to the list!
The other day, Burke told me he wanted to read his Three Little Pig story. I said, “Okay…be right there.” He grabbed the book and when I got into the room, this is what I saw. (With Maggie tap-dancing in the background…)

No…not THAT one. We moved into our house two years ago today! Wow. We so need to put some pictures up on the walls.
Wait – that wasn’t why I was writing! Sheesh.
It’s been a whole two years, and I have to say – I’ve been really happy with our house
Some improvements we’ve made (and by “we” I mostly mean “Mike” or a guy we hired):
And sure, there’s lots more we’d like to do (add a deck, put ceiling fans in the bedrooms, fix the front door so you can actually open it from the outside…), but for the most part we’re very happy. (I know – sick, isn’t it?)
