Home Days
By the end of a day at home with Mom, the girls are usually asking about their friends and Ms. Ashley, but for the most part, it’s the most relaxed day of the week. Our day is pretty unscheduled and the girls have to rely on each other for entertainment so we have a lot of giggles and a fair share of tears. So far, so good.
Tagged
I got tagged again, this time by Clarissa and Erin. So here are 7 random things about me.
1. I have really long toes. My second toe is the same length as my pinkie finger, and I used to be able to write my name with my right foot. (No, I haven’t tried in a while.)
2. I love old musicals. Rodgers and Hammerstein, Disney, anything really. One of my favorites is “The Happiest Millionaire”, anyone, anyone?
3. I don’t eat blue food. Blue is a weird color to eat. It’s just not natural. (And don’t even say blueberries, they aren’t really blue, they’re purple when you smash them. It’s the white film on them that makes them look blue.)
4. Wind chimes freak me out. They are as ominous as the Halloween theme song to me.
5. We aren’t going to find out whether this child is a girl or a boy until the day it’s born. We didn’t find out the other two either. It’s worth the wait–I dare any prego to try it.
6. I can hardly wait to get a minivan. I never thought I would say that.
7. My husband just cooked scrambled eggs, bacon and buttermilk biscuits. My whole family is sitting in the living room in front of the fire eating together. Life is good.
Jenna, I tag you again 
Viva La Snowman
This snowman just won’t let go. Everyday this guy is leaning back more and more. Despite the rain last night our snowman stands strong. Any bets on how long he will last?
Snow Photos
I just uploaded a bunch of new pics of the girls in the snow. We did make a snowman… it took almost all the snow in our yard, but we did it.
After Christmas
The girls got Bella Dancerella from Santa and then two authentic tu-tus from my aunt and uncle. Watch the progression.
Happy
Joyful
Aaawww
wow! It was bound to happen.
new stuff + siblings = tantrum
After she rolled around on the floor for a minute she got over it.
I love having girls. They are too fun!
Happy Birthday to Me
Birthdays are fun. This morning I woke up to a house strewn with pink and purple streamers and lots of goodies from my family. Then, I got to work and got brownies on “The Red Plate” from Angie, a birthday banner, a crown from Olivia’s class, a Speck case that makes my laptop pink, and I got taken to a yummy lunch at Chow Baby! Josh and the girls are taking me to Cheesecake Factory tonight. So far, 29 is pretty good.
It’s also Terrible Speller and Sandi ’s birthdays today. Happy Birthday Girls!
The Belongings Box
Daddy has a new rule at our house.
If you leave something in the living room that doesn’t belong there, after you go to bed, it belongs to Daddy for 24 hours.
So far, it’s working. The girls were not happy to see their Disney Princess Barbies in there this morning.
And, yes, those are some of Mommy’s belongings. I have to start cleaning up too.
Baby Pictures
Today, our third child is the size of a grape. He/She has all four limbs and you can just start to see them in the sonogram. Pretty neat, huh?
