Mirror, mirror on the wall…

I’m having body image issues.  I HATE the after baby body.  This is my 3rd time around this block and I still don’t like it any better.  I gained most of my weight in my lower half this time around and it’s making it super difficult to wear anything that isn’t non maternity… and I [...]

Refreshing

In complete contrast from my previous post, I have to say that Grace and Becca are getting along today… for the most part. =)  When these days of getting alongness happen it helps to remind me that they are sisters, friends, and little kids learning and growing up together.  There is hope for the future!  [...]

Why can’t they get along?

I love my kids dearly, but at least once a day they annoy me to the point that I just don’t want to be around them at all.  Anyone else ever feel like that?  For some reason my girls can’t play together without screaming and yelling and crying at each other almost the entire time.  [...]

4 weeks

Noah is four weeks old today.  Sigh.  I’m amazed by how quickly the time is going by!  He is such a good baby and just brings all of us so much joy.  Grace constantly comes up to him and says how much she loves him and how cute he is…and of course she loves to [...]

Rainy Day Fun

Today is a rainy day… definitely a dreary day where the temptation to be bored and lazy is strong.  I also find that when my girls are stuck inside together without any clear direction they argue a lot and aren’t very nice to each other in general.  I’m feeling pretty good so I thought I’d [...]

life changes

I realized the other day that when Becca was three weeks old Rich had gone back to work.  Noah is three weeks and a few days old and thankfully Rich is still home.  He’ll be working from home for about 9 more weeks or so and I cannot imagine trying to take care of a newborn, two year [...]

trying to exit

I decided that I would go and run a few errands this afternoon while the girls had their quiet times since there are a few things that we really needed.  1:00 rolled around and the girls went into their rooms.  I got Noah up from his little nap… he was a bit restless so I knew [...]

noah

Noah is 3 weeks old today!  He is already getting so big.  Most of his newborn clothes are too small and he’s wearing 3 month sizes… he’s the first of my babies to outgrow the newborn size so soon.  He’s been such a joy since the moment he was born and I just feel so [...]

busy weekend

This weekend was a pretty busy one for me and Noah… and our family in general.  Saturday we stayed home during the day and Rich and I cleaned our house.  It was in dire need of being cleaned!  We really enjoyed the family time.  The girls were getting a little too hyper though but it [...]
