Let's try this again...

Obviously, I have some issues with actually posting to my blog. I think part of the issue is that I read too many really, really awesome blogs. You know, blogs that make me happy. Blogs that make me laugh out loud. I read some very insightful, thought-provoking blogs that really make a difference in my day. I want to be able to write a blog like that. But alas, I'm just not "cool" in that way and it really bothers me. Sure, I enjoy writing about my son and my husband and the things we do in our lives, but our lives are honestly pretty boring. Maybe if I just keep writing, the "coolness" will come? :)

So, Cory has changed by leaps and bounds over the past few weeks. He is starting to sing his ABC's and his vocabulary is expanding at an extremely high rate. He is amazing! We've been doing a class at the Rec Center about the alphabet. We do crafts, sing songs, and do some really fun activities. Every morning when I go in to get Cory he asks about class. It's so cute.

On Tuesdays we go back to the Rec Center for Play Day - two hours of nonstop playing fun for kids 6 months to 4 years. It's in a gymnasium with millions and billions of toys spread all around. Cory's buddy Owen also goes and it's a blast.

On Thursdays we've been going to story time at the library. It has taken a little while, but Cory finally participates and follows along with the stories. He especially enjoys the singing and dancing. :)

I've been experiencing some physical issues lately that have really gotten me down. I'm completely stubborn about going to the doctor and I have an intense phobia of being on any kind of medication. I've been trying homeopathics but it's just not cutting it at this point. I'm at the point now where it's almost physically impossible for me to take care of Cory and Sean has had to miss work to help me. I go to the doctor's on Thursday and I am hoping and praying for some answers that can help me be the great mommy and wife I know I am. I've been trying so hard to stay positive, but it's hard, especially when your two year old looks at you while your laying on the couch and says, "Get up Mom-mom" and you just cannot do it. :( It makes me cry. Enough about that...

I really hope to do a better job at this blogging thing. I think it could be very therapeutic for me. We'll see.
