Aidan and Jac

Evidently, our 6 year old has a fascination for our 10 year old Russell. Unfortunately, the desire is not shared and whenever Aidan feels like Jac is in need of atttention, she kindly pulls her lips back from her snaggly and short teeth and snarls like a wilderbeast. What about this makes kids want to do it more??
Well, last weekend was a turning point. Evidently Aidan thought that Jac should try on the muzzle that we have for our 4 year old Shephard to help prevent him from barking. Jac immediately disliked the idea and popped Aidan in the nose with her teeth. And yes, I said popped because I think she could have done at lot worse. He had a couple of teeth marks but the worst of it was a bloody nose. As a parent I was thinking this was a good thing and maybe poor Jac would have some peace.
Nope, the next day Aidan tried to make amends by popping her with a punch balloon in the head. Jac thought that was nice and burst said balloon with her teeth. Joy.

Really Two Months???/

I know, what can I possibly have been doing instead of updating my blog religiously??? You're right, I've been slacking, I joined 5 soccer teams that play 3 times a week, and have been trying my hand at Zumba, or I should say trying my leg, because at the end of January, I tore a calf muscle. What's that feel like? Well, let's see when you go to step and all the muscle tissue, fat, and just weight of your bone moves down that leg it hurts....painfully. However, after just a week and a half I was right back at Zumba, and light soccer. Oh, and of course horseback riding. However, a week and a half ago, while playing a soccer game on a Sunday, I tore the other calf muscle, the right one this time. *sigh* So, I was back to watching my hubby play games, no zumba, and totally being bored out of my mind. At least with this one, I could walk, but it sure is plainful to run. I did try to play on it this past Tuesday, and almost made it the whole 40 minutes without feeling like I was a beginner, but in the last 5 minutes I felt the pain, again. Ugh so frustrating.
