There must be something in the air recently. I’ve been digging up old, faded, dusty ‘to do’ notes and starting to actually DO some of the items on them. Like get the blog going again, and get some of the latest the pictures posted to the website. Today I hooked up my speakers to the wireless network – something that I should have done over a year ago but just could never find “the time.” I started cleaning out my desk (eeeeeek!), I finished decorating Jaden’s room (’bout time!), and I went through my kitchen and tossed any food items that had I could no longer identify. Now if only I can bring myself to make the dozen or so phone calls I have to make — I hate phone calls. If anything gets pushed to the bottom of my to do list, you can bet it has something to do with the phone.
Before the tornado of to-dos today, Jaden and I went to our 2nd “Music Together” class. It really is a lot of fun. He enjoys it; at least it seems that way. When we arrive he turns to each kid there, one at a time, and yells out his hellos – “eeeeiiiiaaa.” Once he’s finished saying hello to everyone he opens it up to the teacher who starts us out with a hello song. He sits in my lap and watches everyone singing and clapping. Today he actually picked up a little drum and played with it for a while. Probably only because it had a red string attached to it, but hey, it’s a start. By about the third song, he put his head on my shoulder and started falling asleep. Of course perpetually sleep deprived Mommy thinks: “So this must be the trick! I’ll just sing to him, and dance with him, and tap out songs on his legs until I put him to sleep.”
If it were only that easy.
I have to say things are getting better even though I still complain. 
We’re about 50/50 now for good/bad nights. He slept through the night again last night – I think. The nights get blurry after a while.
So — does anyone remember what their New Year’s resolutions were/are? It’s only been a few weeks and I’m already not sure what mine were.
