What is it about this heat and this time of year that make me want to not be around anyone? At this point, HH, because he is totally getting on my nerves. I finally found a couple of people to do some work around the house that is much needed and I told him that they were coming today to talk to us. I let them in the house and then he disappears ( Read more... )

I'm sitting down, writing this and I have a smile on my face remembering some of the happenings of the last couple of days. It really is the little things that matter ( Read more... )

Things are getting better around here little by little. HBB is recovering very nicely from his minor pneumonia. HBG is growing and expanding her knowledge and experiences every day with less and less meltdowns. HH is slowly leaving his dreary job behind, while gaining experience and info daily at the job he was meant to have. I also feel like ( Read more... )

Everytime I get a chance to read up on 24hrmama's blog, it inspires me to write. Although I subscribe to her zine, which is ending with the next issue (so sad, but I totally understand) I really feel like I know her. I am actually 2 years behind her current postings but it works great since her kids are about the same age then as mine are now. ( Read more... )

The tiny little boy that lives here has either a summer cold or his allergies have gotten to him. I really think that allergies are the case since the wind has been so yucky here these past few days. I called the nurse on call tonight and she said that it is not recommended to give a baby any amount of cough syrup, so we were left with elevating ( Read more... )

Isn't it amazing how once you try something that you have been putting off for so long, you most of the time find that it wasn't too scary to begin with? If you would've just taken the time to get it taken care of, it wouldn't have been so bad? This has happened to me a lot this week ( Read more... )

Here is my new userpic! I can't wait until my hair is this long. I wonder if i have the patience? Maybe since the babies are now paid for, I'll splurge on some extensions! A salon trip to Seattle would be great.

Today the little ones were exceptionally good. They were good enough to take visiting and we went to a side of town that we hardly ever make it to and visited the offices of the Aunties. One, Aunt T. has an office on one side of the street. The other, Auntie S. is on the other. They are both so proud of the hipbabies that all of their coworkers ( Read more... )

The family is asleep and we all had a great day today, but busy. We missed HH as he had to return to both jobs but we made it through. Tonight we had BBQ sandwiches and coleslaw and it was really good and easy. Now I've got a sweet tooth going on and I'm about to raid the refrigerator ( Read more... )

I've just read that you need to live through a year of holidays without the person you have lost to get a taste of what your life will be like from now on. Every holiday so far hasn't been at all happy, especially at night. I'm feeling like everything is alright. I have my 2 kids, I have hh, jobs and a house that I love. And then I remember why ( Read more... )
