I think Isaiah's short attention span has worn off on me because for months and months after he was born (actually, to this day) I couldn't sit through a whole movie with him because he'd fuss or start needing attention. Of course that makes sense, I'm not upset about it, but I can tell it's affected me. I don't expect to sit for 2 hours staring in the same direction and so when the opportunity presents itself I find myself struggling to focus after about 45 minutes.
That's just a random thought from Heather at 10:10pm Sunday night.
I'm eating maggie moo's ice-cream. It's chocolate/vanilla with cookie chunks -- really good. I've been having some reflux lately, the baby is definitely putting more pressure on my stomach. I hear dairy products sometimes help. That's my best excuse for ice-cream at this time of night... *sigh*.
So here's another random thought: I once heard that immigrant women (to America) considered themselves very fortunate if they DIDN'T have to go to work outside the home. It was like a status thing if you could afford to stay at home and be a full-time homemaker. Kind of an awesome way to think about it, huh? But it totally makes sense!
It reminds me once again how awesome my husband is, not only for always supporting me, but for doing so without question. I love you, babe.
It also shows how silly the whole materialism thing is that it would drive women away from the beauty of giving life to a home and a family only for cold cash. And yet in a lot of ways I see this mindset actually turning in on itself as the all important money is then spent on a bigger house, nicer car, landscaping, hiring an interior decorator, etc.
I'm totally not judging anybody who works outside the home, I have several friends who do out of necessity. I'm just upset with the *mindset* and spirit behind materialism and some so-called feminism that actually screws up the true beauty and essence of womanhood.
Anyway. : P
Here are some new pictures! : )
Isaiah LOVES babies! He asked to hold
Jedidiah, my friend's 2 month old.
I had to watch him every second or he would've
covered little Jed in kisses.
Same day, sporting his favorite converses.
Another love of his, the guitar.
And nudity.
4th of July! First baseball game!!
He was SO good. He stayed with us in the
same seats for 3 hours (this is a huge record!).
Snacking on a pretzel.
Watching the ball?
