This NEVER Happens

And I mean NEVER.
I'd like to think it's because she's such a good sleeper at night.
We're talking 12 hours. You know, what I wish I slept.
My kids don't even fall asleep in the car, unless they are tired
OUT OF THEIR MINDS (and out of mine).
And yes, she still takes naps. Usually. If I miss my window of opportunity, w-hell (oops, Freudian slip), that's another story.
Yesterday she would NOT take a nap and kept pretending like she wasn't tired. And yes, I did just let her sit in front of the TV while I made dinner, or something...
I was thinking, Boy, is she quiet in there!, and then I saw this little angelic face.
(Check out her sweet tat.)



Isn't that sweet?

Toddlers and Markers

Need I say more? Sure is cute though.
Knowing it's only dry erase and not a sharpie makes it even cuter.

Say 8

For Memorial Day Lucy gave me the gift of 8 hours of sleep. Yes, you read that right, 8 HOURS! This was the first time I've slept 8 hours in a row since January 6th of this year. Sleep, how I have missed you. Now, I realize I am totally jinxing this blessed event, but I just had to announce to the world how excited I am about it.

For Memorial Day Jane gave me the gift of pee all over the bathroom counter, down the drawers, in the drawers and all over the floor. I guess that's what "Uh-oh" means when you hear it from the other room. Potty training is so fun!

Good times. Kiddies are the best!

Too Fast

Jane is growing up too fast. She was just a baby. Seriously, only 7 months ago she could barely talk. Now she's carrying on full conversations with me, helping me do actual tasks, following directions. I cannot believe how fast she has grown. I think Lucy's birth has helped/ forced her to become more independent and better at communicating EVERYTHING. Each day, she says something new that surprises me and Scott with her level of comprehension and intelligence.
Since I'm feeling nostalgic, here is a glimpse into the not so distant past...

Can't believe baby #2 is already so close to this age. Life goes by too fast.

The Cutest Sound in the World

Time's a Flyin'

I can't believe it's almost May! We have had a few adventures this last month and a half. Here are the highlights:

Lucy's baby blessing went smashingly. I am lucky enough to had a friend that took some beautiful pictures and lucky enough to have great in-laws that came for the fun!

I now know how to get poop out of tan carpet (OxyClean Carpet Spray!). Oh, and something that rotted under some toys, yogurt, and miscellaneous dark spots. Good times.

We have 2 girls in one bedroom which I thought would be a nightmare...but it works! While one screams, the other sleeps, and vice versa. It's like magic. (Hope I'm not jinxing myself...)

Jane LOVES the circus. Lucy DOES NOT like loud clowns. I don't like sitting by the animal waste bucket.

2 kids + cold season = Never ending sickness. Nothing is more sad than a coughing, stuffed up infant.

There is a light at the end of the Ph.D tunnel. I can almost see it! (Especially when we can bug daddy all day long on the computer. ;)

From Spring 2010

Babies grow way too fast! Lucy can now do circles on the carpet, enjoys gnawing on her hands, and just found her feet today. Sniff.

From Spring 2010

Nebraska has 4 seasons. Stinking hot and sweaty, cold and windy, freakin' cold and windy with too much snow for a human, and warm and ridiculously windy. Yeah, it's not my favorite place.

Making Freezer Jam is so easy! Why didn't I know this before?!?!?

From Spring 2010

I love to make things for other people (and myself). I've been trying to keep busy with some sewing and crafting projects. (And enjoying my new camera and tweaking the photos a little.)

Spring has sprung!

Being a mommy has ups and downs, but the ups win. I love my goofy kids (and hubby)!
