Quiet time.

It is always nice to be up early and have the house to yourself for a while. My hubs has taken this week off from work and he is sleeping in, and the 1st it off at school, the 2nd is sound asleep, and here I am at the computer. I got up early to take my oldest son to school, he said he wanted to talk, this was the first time this year I had taken him to school.  Since he can be quite surly at times, and doesn't like to open up I figured I should jump at the chance.  It was nice talking to him, we talked about probable baby names, he hates the one name that my hubs and I have agreed upon so far, I mean hates. What do you do, do you still keep the name that another child hates or find a new one? Or do you tell them tough luck, you aren't the parent?

I am having my third boy, why are boy names so hard, I had some picked out when I was younger, but have since dated boys with those names, and they don't seem so good anymore. I don't want to name my son after some loser I was mistakenly in love it.  Also I have a lot of brothers and lots of male cousins, so those names are out, you want something that is special to that child, but not too crazy.  I am not really up for naming my child Brick, Clay, Sun, Ford, Harvest, Zander or any such nonsense, no offense to any outta touch parent who likes those names.  I want just a nice classic normal name, that isn't as common as Aiden, or Jack seems to be right now.  I guess I could do the Twilight thing, and name him Edward Jacob, ha haha yeah right, don't think so. Maybe we can wait until he is old enough to name himself, and end up with a name like Crackerjack, or Sippy cup.

I think we are almost ready for Christmas, only a tiny bit of shopping to do, and wrapping to do. We got the tree up, but nothing is on it, thank goodness it comes with the lights on it already, or else it would just be a bare tree. I am worried that the 2nd child will attack it, taking off ornaments, throwing them around the room, like he loves to do with everything else.  Or better yet, tossing things into the tree. He has an arm on him like you wouldn't believe, he better end up a pro football player or baseball player.  He chucks everything and anything, at everyone and everything.

I am feeling a bit more stable today, I don't feel as stressed or depressed, but that comes and goes. I wish I was this normal more often.  I have a feeling though that because I didn't get much sleep today, I might just end up my normal grumpy bitch self.  I hope not, my husband hopes not.

I have to say though, I am very blessed that I do not have to drive to work every morning, that my hubs takes the 1st to school, it is not easy to do.  I just wanted to let him know that I do appreciate all that he does for me.  I am grateful to have him in my life. If only he would stop hogging the bed. He would be just about perfect.
