Smiles



I can't tell you what it is that makes my heart scream when the kids smile. I will make an absolute fool out of myself just to see it happen. Trust me...If these walls could speak!

10 on Tuesday

Is today only Tuesday? I've seen this on Will's and Rissa's blogs and I am going to take a stab at it. I think I am supposed to list 10 things that are on my mind for no particular reason: Here it goes! Just a quick note, my hard drive with all of my pictures is not working so I have no pics at the moment. We're working on it.

1. Why is it that when you have 2 kids they never want to nap at the same time. No matter how much Mommy begs and pleads?
2. Jordyn is double jointed. Where on Earth does she get that?
3. Connor is obsessed with kissing his baby sister. In the middle of a tantrum I can say, " do you want to give the baby a kiss?" and he will stop and run to her to kiss her.

4. Connor counted to 5 today. Well, he skipped the number two each time, but darn it he's trying
5. Patrick and I decided last night while playing in the backyard with the kids and Max that we are hopelessly in love with our family.
6. We really miss Bailey and for all of you out there, Bailey needs a new home...AGAIN
7. I need me time! It's been so long I don't even know what that means anymore. Any thoughts?
8. Connor was playing with Max today and said, "Max, drop it" ! I laughed so hard
9. I missed a wine tasting this weekend. Me! I missed a wine tasting
10. I promise I am working on Patrick to start the Jordyn Project. I'm trying to take a picture of her every day.

TGFF

Thank God For Family!!!
We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful, helpful family. We cannot thank you all enough for taking time out of your extremely busy lives to come and help us while I am recuperating. We have had Christine (Patrick's Sister) who came in for a few days and while here helped us break Connor out of the baby bath tub and got him loving his BIG BOY BATHS!

Kathie (Patrick's Mom) She was here for 8 days and really helped me out by just being here to get housework done and love on Connor as much as possible. Marsha (My surrogate Mother) She comes over every day to help with laundry and housework after she gets home from work. My Daddy! Here is a picture of him and Patrick
putting together the new swing set he got for Connor to make my life and Connor's life bearable this summer. Thanks for loving us so much and always being there to help when we need you Dad. And Melinda, if you're reading this...You Rock. I wouldn't be able to cope without you. Connor is so lucky to have you. And so are we! So many people have helped us out, bringing us dinners and baby gifts and gifts for me which is just unheard of when a baby is born, and I just cannot thank you enough. We love you all.
