Good Thing We're Not Dramatic

Ari: "Mom, I need some play food."

Me: " I'm sorry Buddy, I don't know where it is right now."

Ari: " But MOM, Sean and I are playing house. And if we don't have any food, then we have to play that we are DEAD."

Look-Alikes

Just rockin' a little Jillian Michaels kickboxing when Ari saunters by, glances at the TV screen, and asks, "Hey Mom, is that you?" Um NO. But my week appears to suddenly be looking up!

Five Little Acorns

I'm thinking it's about time to clean up this blog!

Hope your Christmas was merry!

Seriously

It's seriously hard work being this wonderful.

But Ari would like you to know that he is up for the challenge....

right after his nap.

Nevermind

Renee from Little Earthling Photography is coming tomorrow to take some photos of Ari for me. Wonderful, yes?!

Still Here

The babe is nearly three weeks old already. I am in denial. I am feeling obligated to work steadily; to keep up on the housework, the cooking, the laundry... but all I want to do is sit and stare at him. I know how quickly these weeks disappear. He still has all those newborn mannerisms--the fluttering of the eyelids, the phantom sucking in his sleep, the squinched up faces--I am head over heels in love.

Hope to be back soon with some more photos to send your way...that is, if I can stop snuggling with him long enough to actually take some!
