Let’s see – updates.
We’re not sleeping enough, particularly mommy (and to a lesser extent, Brian). All this is to guarantee that little miss 6-month-old DOES sleep enough, or about. Carolyn has two teeth! She’s my earliest teether at 6 months old. Maggie got her first in her 9th month and Anna in her 10th month. Jordan came home with eight teeth. 😉 (He has 15 now, I think! Need to recount those molars – maybe 19. That’s quite a few teeth in one year!)
Anna and Maggie continue to play in the MUD often. I tell them they can only come inside looking like THAT one time per day. Their clothes are quickly being destroyed. But they are having loads of fun. “Look at the mud slide, mom!” “Look at the mud paint, mom!” “My boots are wet on the inside, mom!” That’s my country girls! They are loving our new place… there wasn’t this much space OR mud at our first house.
We are house shopping, but not in a hurry. We’ve gotten excited about a few places, but nothing has been perfect yet. I kinda hope we don’t find anything until next summer. Moving is a lot to do when you have little kids.
I’m still focusing on:
Take care of me
Take care of kids
Then try to keep up with housework (laundry and dishes are on top of the list – everything else tumbles down below those)
Then try to do other stuff
Tomatoes are started in little pots. Nothing else yet. Maybe today?
Any time you are feeling well rested, think of me and send me some chocolate covered caramels. Brian knows this and brought some home for our eigth anniversary. Along with my favorite flower (carnations). I married an amazing man.
The mud playing update cracked us both up! Oh what fun we have to look forward to!
