This is what Alex looks like when Thomas the Train is on TV. I could be tap dancing while making balloon animals next to the TV and he wouldn’t notice. Not a day goes by where he doesn’t ask for “Choo Choo?”. Needless to say, we are doing a Thomas bday party this year. Every time and episode starts, he… Read more →
El Fin!
No, Alex did not get to actually paint but he sure liked that roller. I especially liked it when he rolled it over my back. I’m going to count that as a massage. For 2 hours after dinner and baby bed time, we finished the room. Other than a few spots where I plan on going back to touch up… Read more →
Adventure in painting
For months I thought I was going to hire some one to paint Chloe’s room. Then the weeks started to fly by and nothing progressed. And after realizing we only have about 6 weeks to go, I started to panic. So I said F-it! and decided to tackle this project on our own. How hard can it be?? I’m pretty… Read more →
This is how I feel today…..
….size wise, not sluttiness. I only ate 3/4 of my deli sandwich for lunch and this video accurately portrays how I feel I look to others. This did get me thinking though. How funny would it be to do a social experiment as a very pregnant woman sitting in a bar. Hilarious, right? And I checked with Hank on the… Read more →
Daddy free weekend
What do you do all weekend when Dad is gone and you’re 7 months pregnant? I don’t like March already. Henry is up to his eyeballs with St. Patrick’s Day planning and preparing to open the Firestone Public House. (next door to dVP Sacramento) This means I get to handle Alex by myself for the next month. We were on… Read more →
27 weeks
I decided to move my maternity photo shoot up by 2 weeks. Wanna guess why?? This is one ACTIVE little girl. At this point in your pregnancy, the mother is told to do a “kick count” every day. Your baby should kick at least 10 times in 1 hour. I assume this helps us to verify that our growing nugget… Read more →
19 months
I no longer have a baby boy. I have a talking, running, bossy young man on my hands. Sometimes it hits me like a ton of bricks that he is so grown up. 19 months is still little for sure, but when you think back to how he used to sleep on your chest for hours, it seems like a… Read more →
Valentine’s Day
Just wanted to share the, as Miley would say, “pretta kewl” gifts my boys got me. I told Henry to get me the new Twilight DVD that came out this week and he comes back with the craziest flower arrangement he’s ever given me! They smell amazing and my mission is to keep them safe from my a-hole cat that… Read more →
Alex & Ryan
Look at these two goobers. Forced friends since birth, but hopefully they’ll dig hanging out on their own as the years go on. Plus, if they don’t, we have the bath pictures as blackmail to force them into liking one another. They are different as night and day but seriously hilarious to watch. The jammie pics are the boys “knocking”… Read more →
Bed Sharing
Henry and I have a Cal King Size bed. This might sound terribly un-romantic, but I love our big bed because we can both comfortably sleep without being on top of each other all night. I’m pretty sure this is heightened by the fact that I’m pregnant, but I like to cuddle til I fall asleep then do my own… Read more →
