Going private

It's time. I've been thinking about it and I just need to do it. I love looking in all of my friends on their blogs and keeping up with all of you & your families, and for that, thank you for letting me! However, I am going to make our blog private. I love that so many of you want to stay in touch with us and I ask that you still do so. If you are interested in The Ostermann Fam and our world, either send me an email with your address or leave me a comment so I can include you on those "with permission" or whatever it says. Thanks for understanding!!

And while I am certainly not condoning jumping on the bed, I just have to share a new & fun way to entertain your little one! Rules were made to broken right?! We all know that changing sheets is a chore but it has to be done. Will LOVES when I change the sheets now. He literally asks about it and looks forward to the once a week sheet change now. However, it's not necessarily called "changing the sheets" anymore. Instead it's "Parachute!!!!" Oh ya. 30 minutes of endless fun! I will probably change my mind about this whole parachute game when we end up in the ER with a broken arm, but for now it's fun! :) We all remember the bright, colorful parachute from P.E. class in elementary school? Same concept here. Except there is leaping & jumping onto the parachute involved. Will leaps into the air onto the sheets on the bed. Classic entertainment. We even have "time for a break" and he pretends to take a short nap. So be weary of the edge of the bed, but I highly recommend "parachute time" as part of your weekly chores! Please do not send me your ER bill though. :)
