Stir Crazy!

Calvin and I go nuts sitting in the house all day so we've been going on a lot of walks. Today we went to the park and I put Calvin in the swing. He loved it! Every time he went down, he giggled. Of course I started to giggle too. I love being a mom! I think it is the best job in the world!
It's nice that he is taking regular long naps now because I don't have to spend his awake time trying to ignore him and do homework.
Calvin has taken up scooting lately. The funny thing is that he can't go forward. He gets so angry when he doesn't get to that thing that he wants. I laugh at him and then he looks at me like I am the biggest jerk in the world. I love him!
On a side note, I ordered a book "The Volumetrics Eating Plan" by Barbara Rolls, Ph.D. It is finally here! The author is a well known researcher of Nutritional Sciences at Penn State. She's served on the advisory council of the National Institutes of Health's National institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. She's published more than 200 academic research articles on nutrition. I am so excited to read this book! It talks about how you can feel full on fewer calories. Not only this, but she includes 125 recipes in it! This is a book that my teacher recommended for us to read. I got it on amazon at a low cost.
