Really???

Has it really been over a month since my last post???? Where the heck does the time go? Well, it's time to do a little catching up I guess.
Yonas is still obsessed with all things dinosaurs and it doesn't look like that will be changing anytime soon, so we decided to give the little guy a dinosaur room. There's still a few things to do, like get some pics for the walls and whatnot but for the most part it's all good to go. And yes, Yonas is totally stoked about his new room.

Note: The setting on my camera must have been wonky cuz the pics didn't turn out so well.





I paid a small fortune for these dinosaur knobs (from Etsy) but I really do think they were worth it.



I'm not sure why, but Yonas had become very afraid of the dark. It started before his new room so I know it's not related to that. But he makes me leave his bedroom light on at night. And even if I wait until he is asleep to turn it off, he will wake up and either get up and turn it back on himself or cry for me to come and turn it on for him...and then gives me crap for turning it off in the first place. I've tried nightlights, flashlights, you name it, but nothing is as good as his actual bedroom light. So there is now the lowest wattage bulb possible in there but it still bothers me I have a light on ALL night long.
Last weekend we zipped out to Saskabush for a couple of days. I forgot my camera so no pics but Yonas had a blast with his cousins. And of course we were able to take a little detour to visit with Rhonda and Eden.
Life is good. Really busy with school and the dreaded studying and homework that comes with it which is why I don't post very often anymore. I refuse to go on the computer before Yoyo goes to bed...the small amount of time we have together at the end of the day is far too important for me to be sitting in front of a computer. And then of course after he goes to bed and I do laundry, clean, get ready for the next day, and my schookwork, well the computer is the last thing I want to spsend time doing. So yeah, we're doing awesome, just busy!

Oh, replace your light switch with a dimmer. We do that in all our bedrooms so we can leave the light on super low all night if we need to, or turn it on when checking the kiddos at night without waking them. Works great!

If you don't know how, or know someone who can do this for you, let me know and I will see if hubby can come by and do it for you.

Those dino knobs are perfect for the room - love it. The dimmer switch is a great idea.

The room is very cute!

Him wanting to have the light on for night reminds me of a man in our neighborhood. He's a grown man with nearly grown children and he has to have a light on for the night because he's afraid of the dark.... and get this... he's a COP!!!
