kick

i know for a fact that i just felt the baby kick! yay! i thought i was feeling it a few weeks ago (and maybe i was), but this for sure was a kick. it's hard to believe that i have a baby inside of me that is moving around. God does some really awesome things!

on another note: i am trying to get jack to clean up after himself. i have made him clean up some in the past, but nothing major. i usually clean up after he goes to bed. i think he is old enough to help me now and since he will be starting school in the fall (tear) i thought it would be a good idea to get him to clean up when i tell him to. so today he was asking to watch a show...so i told him that he had to clean up the cards from candyland first. i guess he didn't really want to watch a show because he didn't clean up. well, then he went to get a toy out of his toy box so i said that he had to clean up the cards first. finally, he started the process of cleaning up. it took him 20-25 minutes to pick up 20 cards!! he had to put each card in the dumptruck and dump them into the box. he did it, but it took a while. since then he has cleaned up playdoh, foam letters, monkeys in a barrel like a champ. i mainly just want him to clean up big messes right now. not individual toys unless i say so. he is doing pretty good with it.
