Good weekend

We had a really good weekend event tho we didn't get much done around the house. Dishes are done, a couple loads of a monster pile of laundry washed, and we got groceries, but beyond that... Nope. Why was it a good weekend then? Because we gamed online from not long after we woke up til the other players were dropping and falling asleep in their chairs. We used Ventrillo, a GameTable program, and an online Character Sheet site and off we went. It was slightly slow starting Saturday morning while we all got comfortable, and then Si drove Rob to distraction and he had to call timeout for a couple hours. But after that we went for several more hours and had fun. Yesterday we gamed almost non-stop. It was really nice. I'm playing a Gold Elf Spellthief and she's really fun. She's right there just begging to be played. For the first time in a long time I have personal history in mind for her, an ultimate mission, and a touch of personality to take her from paper to more real for me and the other players.

On other fronts, Si has backslid on the potty training. She'll still go to the potty for #2 9/10 times, but seems to rather pee where she stands/sits so its back to setting timers and pull-ups instead of undies most of the day. Sorry, after steam cleaning the couch 4 times in 1 day, the floor twice and kitchen chairs once I had to draw the line. She'd been doing so well then bam. Brick wall city. /sigh

X is just being frustrating. Did everything he could to avoid cleaning his room and swore making paths and piles equalled actually cleaning. When he wouldn;t clean any more, and no amount of yelling would budge him I finally had to just take most of his toys away. So they're mine, until he earns them back, but not any time soon. And he still has to finish cleaning his disaster area.

M continues to grow by leaps and bounds. He's rolling over all over the place. He's trying to sit himself up on occasion. He even will laugh and play with us. SO far Mommy is still the preferred play person and comforter/snuggle buddy. I hope it lasts. :) Rob swears every time he takes M, M just watches me like I'm a traitorous wench for putting him down or letting anyone else hold him.
