Monday I had class & Mr. Grant came & watched Ryder for me...what a BLESSING! They played outside most of the time & Ryder was so excited when I told him Mr. Grant was coming over--the first thing Ryder said was "Icee?" Haha! I swear that kid never forgets anything!
Monday night, Jake came & got Ryder so I could go out to eat for Rachel's birthday! Me, Kelly, Rachel & Katie all met & Zaza's for some yummy specialty salads & may or may not have gotten some gelato! ;)
Me & mom had tickets to hear Erin Brockovich speak after that...so I met her at UCA for that! My writing class last semester was focused on "How corporations affect our every day lives" & we watched Erin's movie & I fell in love with her! It was hard to believe that it was a true story...& when I heard she was going to be at UCA I knew I wanted to hear her speak! I wasn't as GREAT as I thought it was going to be, but it was good. She is still pursuing companies that are polluting our drinking water...
Ryder ended up staying at Jake's over night & brought him to the house Tuesday morning before MDO..
Dad went with us to drop Punkin' off & poor baby cried when I left again...It breaks my heart. I went to Chick-Fil-A to get some chicken minis to drowned our my sorrows. :( & then off to class I went...
They said he had a pretty rough day at School & cried most of the day, but we are working on a new bed time routine...dinner by 6, bath by 7 & bed by 8 hoping that this will help improve things! But thinking about how much our time together the passed couple of weeks has drastically changed, I think it's just going to take him some getting used to.
Tuesday night was the county parade & I wanted to take him! Poor thing fell asleep on the WAY there! Ha...but that wasn't stopping us! We walked SO SO far (but it felt good to get some exercise) & sat in front of Morgan's store & watched the parade with her! We even saw Miss Arkansas Kristen Glover! He loves the bands, horses, tractors & "pretty girls"! Ha! =)
One thing that did go right on Tuesday at MDO was that Ryder went up to his teacher & told her he had to go pee pee & she took him & he went! OH MY GOODNESS! I take him to go here at home, but never has he come up to me & told me he had to go! I was so proud of him & told him if he would tell me when he needed to go here at home I would let him wear "big boy underwear" & sure enough he did, so I put his cute little booty in a pair of Thomas underwear! =)
I have never forced things with him when it comes to potty training, & I guess I'm starting to believe that "they will show/tell you when they are ready". So...we are slowly stepping up our game, but at Ryder's speed!
This is my new favorite
& here is my lil booger last night when I got home from night class...(underwear were on over his diaper) isn't he just the sweetest thing? Sometimes it's still hard for me to fathom that HE.IS.MINE.
Here is a lil sneak peak of Ryder's FIRST school pics Ms. Donna e-mailed my mom today. I just about SQEALLLLLED!
Today he went to school again & cried when I left & kept saying "Mama come back...come back" It broke my heart again, but I knew he would be perfectly fine once he got his mind off of things.
He had a much better day at school & got all four smileys! & he got rewarded with a sweet tea from Sonic! ;) We came home & went & got Brett from KeeKee's & played outside for a little bit until just right before the storms hit! We had a great day together & I just love that little boy! =)
