What childhood is all about!
Playing outside all day, coming in to suck down a homemade spaghetti dinner then back out again for more bike riding and playing! Awh, I love warm days! I love seeing life though my 3 year old's eyes. It's good, very good.


She makes the noise!
For a little girl that didn't want to give any kisses for such a long time, she's now quite the kisser and even makes the noise. Enough to melt your heart!!

Lost
I hate loosing things, I know they are somewhere but I can't find them. We've been looking for Skye's little lost shoe for days now. Where could it be? Driving me crazy. And a library book no one remembers actually making it into our home but the library doesn't have it either. Times about up, I'm going to own a book we've never seen!

What type of posts do you like?

I'm curious about what you would like to see out of this blog. My dad is the one who suggested the picture comparing the kids at similar ages and I'm wondering if others have some good idea or something they would like to see more of here. Leave a comment and LMK!

In the meantime here is a picture of the kids all ready for Day Out with Thomas @ Greenfield Village last week. It was cold and wet but we had a great time!

Yep, I'm a northerner! How about you?

What American accent do you have? (Best version so far) Northern You have a Northern accent. That could either be the Chicago/Detroit/Cleveland/Buffalo accent (easily recognizable) or the Western New England accent that news networks go for.

I thought it would be hard to tell the two kids apart but I think it's pretty obvious who is who!

Thinking Blogger Award

My friend Angie awarded me a Thinking Blogger Award. I just love her blog and we started blogging at the same time, so I always feel like we are 'in this' together! I can't give it back to her since it's against the rules, but if you get time you should go check her out. Her photography is simply beautiful! And I love her Friday Fest posts, I always learn something new about her!


Now I get to award 5 new bloggers!


1.Stepping on Leggos What a great name for a blog huh? Nicki is awesome, in addition to being one of the nicest people I've ever met, she is an inspiring parent, a good friend, a Texan ;), and someone that I feel gives me great advice and has had a wonderful influence on my life in the most positive ways!
Her blog is a wealth of information about adoption and many other topics as well!

2. DIY Preschool As a mother of a preschooler I'm always looking for new ideas and this mother of twins has them! I love her philosophy on art and kids, I hope she keeps blogging her ideas!

3. Juilepersons blog Ok, I'll admit it, I want her life. She appreciates all the little (and big) things life has to offer. She's got a great outlook and two adorable kids to go with it!

4. Dental Talk My husbands blog! Now the subject matter can be rather bland sometimes (sorry Paul) the way he presents it in a very exciting, personal, tell you like it is matter, makes it enjoyable! Be sure to recommend this blog if you know someone in the dental technology industry.

5. In the trenches of motherhood I'm not certian where I came across her blog, but I'm so glad I did! She is self described as mother to seven children who frequently gets asked, "How do you do it?" Always timely, always good, a must not miss blog!

Ok, there are my 5, I could have done 5 more, I'm a blog addict! Now for the rules.

I had two teenagers knock on my door this morning trying to sell me magazines so they could go to Cancun (what's up with that BTW ?!?!). I realized that when I answered my door what it must have looked like to him; two snot nosed kids, me in my junky cleaning day clothes, staying at home, no car... it must have looked like a nightmare to him! But to me it's my dream come true :D About the only thing he could relate to me was my tattoo on my foot (he'd just got his first). What a strange experience. And he warned me, if I don't buy today I'll have a series of more teenagers knocking on my door. Yikes, I'm not answering!
