Kids driving you crazy? Won’t stop talking? Mine came up with an ear-saving solution all by themselves.

This little boy makes me giggle every day. He says the funniest things and makes the funniest faces. Sadly, he is also one sensitive dude, and gets pretty upset if you laugh at him. So I do my best to snicker to myself and guffaw when he’s not looking. I mean, come on…

And HELLO NOLAN! Nice to have you back!

Since Nolan will not be allowed to play competitive sports as he grows up, we are trying to get him involved early with other outlets. Luckily, we’re both fairly musically oriented, and Nolan is also showing an early propensity for art. So, we think we’ve got it covered. Ask us again once little brother starts playing T-Ball and Nolan has to ask us why he can’t play. But we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.

For now, we’re on a roll. We signed Nolan up for a little music class that a friend is teaching out of her house. It’s delightful, and she is doing all kinds of music appreciation with them. Today they had a little performance of the songs they learned. Unfortunately, we got there a little late and Nolan was a little out of sorts because of it (not to mention in desperate need of a haircut). By the end he warmed up, though, and had a good time. And he got a recorder to bring home (Oh joy!) which promptly broke upon us arriving home (Oh darn!).
