Yearly Update

Time for my yearly update. I need to update this thing more! The kids are doing good. Timmy is cruising and Alex is talking my ear off. Life is going good. I chase after the kids and Dave tries to stay out of the way. I'm trying to think of a true direction for this blog. I am sure no one wants to listen to me ramble about nothing. I have some ideas and as the month progresses I will try to get things moving. Happy Valentine's Day!!!!!!

So this must be my once a month update. LOL I was going to update earlier, but time got away from me. Well Timmy is still adorable. He is learning to nap without being held and is learning to drink from a bottle. He is not too thrilled about either. Alex now knows almost his entire alphabet from heart. Who knew Leap Frog videos would be so handy???? I have our new place way more organized than I did a month ago. We have been eating at the dinning room table. That is a huge thing for us.

Oops!

So for those who read my blog...I think there are 2 or 3 of you...sorry! Yeah I NEVER update. I am lazy. A bad habit to be in, but it is true. So what have I been up to? I am now the mommy to 2 adorable boys!!! And both are currently napping! Love it! I am teaching Alex his first bible verse. Ps 119:105 "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." Oh so true. Must remember that. It is really easy to forget that the word of God guides our entire life. It is 100% true and we are to be passionately following it.

I Love This Site!!!!!

OLD!!!!!!!

SO I just turned 30!!!! EEEKKK!!!!! When did I get so old???? Well I celebrated by having lunch and an outing with my mother. Next Dave and the toddler and I are going to a romantic dinner at Denny's. Why is it so hard to find good vegan food at night??? Let me rephrase that....Why is it so hard to find CHEAP vegan food at night? Honestly!!!!! Salad is diet food not vegan food. I do like salad from time to time...ie every 6 months, but I want some FOOD! For lunch mom and I went to Ike's and I got the vegan biscuits and gravy. Oh so yummy!!!!!!!!! Well I get pizza tomorrow and the cafe in midtown on Saturday!!!! Yay for getting old!!!!!!

The Joy of Motherhood

Well today I made it out for half of my errands. In the grocery store my sweet child decided he was bored. So to remedy this he banged his head on the shopping cart and started to cry, very loudly. After 5 minutes I unhooked him and he miraculously calmed down. Apparently he was bored and needed something to do. We make it home and I put him down for a nap. That was not what he wanted. I guess children actually like to eat..whoops! ;-D During lunch I began to perform for him. I sung all of Maria's part from West Side Story and continued with other Broadway leading soprano songs. He LOVED it. It is days like this when I realize I don't need theatre. I have my son! He is the most appreciative audience. If I hit a wrong note, he doesn't care. If I slip and fall on my face, he thinks it is hysterical. Children are the best audience. He should be sleeping by now, not that I am going to check. A watched child never slumbers. I love being a mommy!

Out for the Day

Alex and I spent the day with his grandma and grandpa, my parents. They were so sweet and helpful when they arrived. Alex was thrilled with his grandparents. We went to THAT building. You know the place. The dizzying, grand, oh my gosh where did my cash go building. Yes you guessed it...The MALL!!!! I love malls. I love poking around, spending money, shopping, looking at clothes, buying clothes, trying on overpriced shoes there is no way I will ever afford! I just love that place! We got his pictures taken. He was such a good model. He charmed the photographer and she charmed the pocked book with an incredible deal for pictures. Thank you guys so much! Afterward we wandered around and had lunch. I went to U Food Grill. It is as healthy as fast food can be. Had a mushroom wrap and baked fries. OH SO YUMMY!!!! I was so happy I let grandma give Alex some ice cream! Yeah that won't happen again for awhile. He of course loved it. Back home and waited for Dave to come home. We went to Strings for dinner. Alex has to be the BEST baby ever! Not a lot of fussing and loved everyone's food. I am so thankful for my wonderful parents. They have been such a blessing to my family. I love you both!!!!!!
