Teeth
Tomorrow I go to the orthodontist to have the brackets put on my teeth. Next Wednesday I go to the oral surgeons to have four teeth extracted. The following Monday I have the wires put on the braces. Just in time to fly to California to visit Brad’s family for a week. So barely a [...]
Peace
Today the boys and I started off trying to go the neighborhood park. I say try because there is an elementary school next door and one of the teachers decided to unleash her class on us after only about 10 minutes. It was awful as 15 kids ran over the boys and even hit me [...]
Reverse Rant
This morning I tried to go to the gym for the first time in a week but the day care was full. So I decided to take the boys to our neighborhood park, which is still driving distance from our house, but a lot of fun. There were three other mothers there with children around [...]
Atonement
I recently read Atonement after hearing such great things about the movie. I saw the trailers and thought it would be good, but we don’t make it out to the movies often so I jumped on the book first. Then last weekend we saw the movie as a rental on our Apple TV.
I [...]
Doesn’t get much better
I just saw Logan chasing Forest through the hallway tickling him. Moments when having twins is so cool.
Rant
I had an experience that makes me want to rant. I try to be a positive person but right now, I want to complain. It’s an old complaint, one that you’ve read or heard many times before from MOMs (mothers of multiples) but I haven’t done it so it’s my turn.
I was at the park [...]
Turning 35
I turn 35 on Sunday. For my birthday this year I’m going to a women’s retreat in the woods. Yes, my priorities in life have changed in big ways. I partied so hard for my 30th birthday that I don’t remember most of it, thank goodness there are lots of pictures to prove that I [...]
Why I do this the way that I do
Last summer a very good friend expressed concerns about putting yourself so “out there” onto the internet using social websites and blogs. At the time I wasn’t sure how to express myself accurately to him about why I was so open with this blog. Brad and I have since had many, many conversations [...]
Forest at 16 months old
It wouldn’t be so bad that Forest wants to help wipe himself during diaper changes if he didn’t also want to put the wipe into his mouth after. It’s a good thing that we use all natural wipes and cleaning stuffs around here because he loves to help clean, but also loves to put [...]
Random
Most awesome search results to my blog “twins are taking over my life”.
Am I more cool or less cool for playing peek a boo when Siouxsie and the Banshee’s song “Peek-A-Boo” comes on?
We’ve passed a huge milestone. The boys will stand still and not move for a few moments, just because I asked them [...]
