First Swim of the Summer!

The floats are ready, the sun is shining, and the pool looks refreshingly beautiful. I suppose that means that it is time to swim!Little Jamie wasn't entirely sure about the cold water, but he soon realized that it was rather nice! Joe was quite the little fish- er- water monkey! He LOVED floating around in his little boat, and got rather good at kicking his feet to get around the pool. I have never been much of an "outside" girl, but I think I am...

You Can Have Your Cake AND Eat It Too!

 I haven't written much lately aside from tidbits of our days. I suppose that I was taking a bit of a break, taking some time to sort through my own thoughts and feelings. Now, I feel ready to do some real writing. I have accepted the fact that sometimes people just aren't going to like what I have to say, and sometimes...they will.I was talking to a friend the other day, and she told me that she read my blog before actually  meeting me...

Paparazzi Joe and Other Such Things

The difference between yesterday and today is like night and day. Suddenly my children are back to their usual charming selves. Perhaps there was just something in the air?Earlier Joe grabbed the bottle and went over and started feeding Jamie in his swing, lol. Jamie didn't seem to mind, I think he thought that it was rather funny.These two have become awfully "chummy" lately. I wonder if sharing a room has brought them closer together? Or maybe...

It's Been a Day!

Today has been a bit of a day... The boys have been in an attitude "funk" lately, and it has been exhausting! But today I was ready to get them back on track. We have gotten away from following a schedule (which has always worked so well for us) and I think that is causing a problem for them.Jamie is LOVING solid foods. His new favorite is strawberry, apples and bananas! I am amazed by how much he eats. I joke about not needing a bib because...

School and Bookstores and What-not

This morning we met a friend over at Barnes and Nobles so the children could play with the Thomas the Tank Engine train set. The boys had a great time, and I certainly enjoyed my skinny mocha and browsing through their selection of planners. It was a lovely morning, until some little Bear threw a tantrum about leaving. It was lovely...I had to carry him out like a football while attempting to push a stroller and walk with the other two boys. :)So...
