The Reddish Family: Piece of Quiet

Piece of Quiet

After another long day of pregnancy I finally get some peace and quiet. It was so funny today, I was sitting on the couch with my feet propped up to help with my ankles and feet that are the size of balloons by noon each day now (I'm not bitter or anything) and Keyton comes in and says, "Mom do you need a piece of quiet?" I started laughing and said "no I'm okay." Then he got a big grin on his face and said, " do you need a piece of loud?" I quickly told him no I didn't need that either! So from now on I think I'm going to refer to it as a piece of quiet and to be honest in this household it's usually on a small piece of quiet that I get.
Although I am getting a little tired of a big belly and swollen ankles, I'm not really sure I'm ready to have a baby either. Which is harder?? I'm not sure.

This time I didn't really have that problem because most my pregnancy was in the winter. You know what I think I'd like more than a piece of quiet? A piece of clean! I can't even walk through my house right now, and last night was the worst so far with baby, so I really don't feel up to cleaning!!! Sometimes it seems like what's the point any way. Well, good luck with all the pregnancy stuff!; June 2, 2009 at 12:54 PM

Our little Keyton is getting so big. He turned 6 in January and is getting so big. He started Kindergarten this year and is doing very well. He loves to learn and is such a smart kid. Some of his favorite things right now are baseball, the wii, playing with the neighborhood kids, and reading Harry Potter each night before bed. Things I love about Keyton are his beautiful blue eyes, the fact that he still loves to snuggle, how sweet he is to Seth, and how he always tries to use the biggest words and then asks me if I know what they mean.

Seth is now 2 1/2 years old. This kid has the power to melt my heart in a second. I have the hardest time getting mad at him because he just looks at me with those sweet little eyes of his, and I just smile. Even when he is being sooo naughty, I still just laugh at him. The thing I love about him is he has two extremes with everything. He is either yelling or whispering, he is either so sweet and gentle or a sassy little monster, he is either hyper or asleep. There is really no middle ground with him and I love that about him. He is also very independant. He can play by himself for hours while Keyton is at school, but he is always so excited when he gets home so they can wrestle.
