Bye LiveJournal... we've had some good times. 

Some fun facts about Miss C:

1.  She always sneezes in twos

2.  She makes a sound like a motor boat or a cat when she sleeps in certain positions.  (It's sometimes loud enough to be heard by someone on the other end of the phone).

3.  Her favorite place to hang out is on the changing table.

4.  She starts her smiles on the same side as I do.  And she ( Read more... )

Things are a little crazy here at the loony bin.  C's starting to maybe-probably-not-but-hey-I-can-hope sleep longer than 4 hours at night.  Bean's been potty training.  (That's an adventure for another post).  I've been redecorating my kitchen.  (Pictures soon!).  And Shaun's recuperating from ankle surgery.  (He's fine... but send him an email or ( Read more... )

Oh.

Two.

Two is insanity.

But then there are days like this:

Dear C-Rex,

I'm a bit shocked that two months have passed already.  Though, if reminded in the middle of the night I would likely wonder why time is going so slowly.

Perspective is funny like that.

Last week we went to the farm for a good dose of strawberry picking.  Initially, the girls and I weren't going to go as I wasn't sure how C was going to do in the ridiculous heat.  But miracles happen and the days of 98+ degree weather (and their 108 degree feel with the humidity) made way for a few gorgeous days in the 70s.

So we headed off to ( Read more... )

Things have been a tad strange at our household in the last few days.

Two nights ago, C gave me a fabulous birthday present and slept for 7.5 hours straight.  Totally a new record.  I slept for about 6.5 house and I'm telling you, I felt like a completely different person. It was wonderful.

I thought to myself, man, this is easy!

Ahem.  This is where ( Read more... )

This is a tad belated, but this is Shaun's Father's Day picture that we gave him.

I'm so blessed to have him as a husband, and I know that the girls are beyond lucky to have him as a Daddy.

The other day, Bean was carrying her play phone around the house, chatting away as usual.  (She gets this form of imitation from her Daddy, of course).

I happened to join into her "conversation"

Bean:  "Hello?  What you doing?"

A pause.  She stops and looks at me.  "Mommy, it's Joey"

Mommy:  "Joey?  Who is Joey?"  (The only two Joes we know are adults ( Read more... )

C-Rex started grinning three days ago.

It couldn't have come at a more perfect time.  6 weeks and 2 days have passed since she was born and she's run the gamut between incredibly easy to incredibly needy.  Lately, it's been the needy phase.

But, I'm still learning her as much as she's learning the world, so we're managing.

It's just that I'm so ( Read more... )
