Snowflake craft
One thing that always works to get Everett focused is asking if he wants to do a craft. Problem is, I have three other babies here and setting up a craft (when I figure out an idea for one) can be a big task. Well, today babies are in cribs and I happened upon this blog which has a ton of ideas. So today, Everett is making a snowflake out of marshmallows, paper, and glue. Awesome.
And from last week or so:
Oh, brothers. :)

Happy 2012!
The year the world ends, right? ;)
I'm usually staunchly against new year's resolutions for no reason other than that everyone makes them, but this year, I've thought of some things I really want to do better at.
- Drink more water. Until noon, I reach for coffee. After noon, I'll make a cup of tea. Why can't I just drink water? Obviously I'm thirsty. So I think I'm actually going to do the check-off of how many glasses I drink.
- Be more relaxed. I get quite stressed during the days when I have two extra babies and a crazy toddler and I need to just gain some more patience and not let myself get worked up. Stress is no good for the mind, body, teeth (TMD), or health in general.
- Have more patience with my Ever boy. Three is definitely a testing age and it drives me up the wall sometimes. I want to be better at remembering that he's still just a tiny boy who is learning every day and that I need to be infinitely patient with him.
- Do better at working out. I did great this summer/fall when I could just get out and run and had my goals. Now? Not so much. It's cold, it's dark, and I don't wanna. Whether it takes getting a membership to the gym, or just using the dang wii fit, I need to get back into moving.
