I really need some pictures

OK. These are boring posts and I know I need some pictures. I'm too tired at night to get them on the computer though. Maybe this weekend.

The schedule continues to go well!Hooray!! And thank you for your encouraging words and for being excited with me about all of this!

Last night Maddox fell asleep at 7:45 and slept until 7:00a.m. Glorious!

He is digging the schedule and remembering the order of events a lot of the time without the pictures. He and Mason are getting along soooo much better. I'm sure a lot of it is because Maddox isn't so bored and they are not left together alone as often. It is hard for me to get up in the a.m. There is something about having the bed to myself after Craig gets up for work. I just love spreading out in those flannel sheets. But, the payoff is too big.

I cannot believe the energy I have and enthusiasm for being with Mason and Maddox. I asked Craig tonight if I seemed "manic", because it was such an immediate change. But he thought I was just being my normal self, which I have not been for so long. I am not used to having energy. It feels wierd.

Today we went to Hoyt Lakes to see Alicia quick. so that changed things up a bit. He ended up taking his nap almost 2 hours later than usual and I had to wake him up 45 minutes into the nap. I felt bad for him, but we did go outside and that helped. He loves the Quiet Time and looks forward to it, which is nice.

I love the quiet time because I get to make lunch and supper in silence. Complete silence. ahhhh. It's a beautiful thing.

and even though today was a pretty "unscheduled" day,Maddox was asleep before 9:00. Hooray!

Mason is sort of liking it. He can't stand the quiet time, even though he can pretty much do whatever he wants. Although he just discovered LarryBoy chapter books, so he has been busy with them. He is also loving the show Rin-Tin-Tin. I found a DVD set with a bunch of seasons on it. He has so much fun watching the show and actually likes the black and white better than color. It is a good show and each show ends with a pretty good cliff hanger.

Maddox has been without TV since Mon or Tue (I can't remember) and that is going well too. We go outside for a hour before his shows start, then we color, then it's quiet time. So far it's going well.

Well, i am tired. Off to bed and hopefully another good night's sleep.
