Thursday, June 29th, 2006Sandi bought The Girls an exercise trampoline from Wal-Mart and they loved it. I can’t imagine anyone finds that surprising. What was surprising is how courteous and civil Annie and Kimberly were about taking turns! Each would jump for a little bit and then turn to the other and say, “Okay, other sibling’s name, it’s [...]

Annie worries me so.
Saturday, June 24th, 2006Annie has such a delightful spirit. She is adorable and happy to be her. She is concerned with others and their feelings. She completely sums up the term free spirit. I love this about her!!! I cannot imagine her any other way. However, this free spirit bothers me sometimes. Today we took the kids to [...]

Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day!!!
Wednesday, June 21st, 2006First day of no naps was, well you read the title. They laid down and watched The Goofy Movie and laid nicely on the couch. That part of the day went fine it was later when everything went downhill. They were so fussy and crabby by the time it was remotely near bedtime. I put [...]
I think it has happened.
Tuesday, June 20th, 2006I think that the time has come where Annie and Kimberly are giving up their midday nap. This is not a good news type of situation. Annie and Kimberly can be very demanding and it is really nice to have a bit of a break to keep your strength up. Annie has been napping only [...]

Happy Father’s Day Bill
Sunday, June 18th, 2006Today is Father’s Day! I am glad that Bill is the father of my children. I think that they have made him a better person while he is making them better people. The other day I took the girls shopping for gifts for Daddy. They know Daddy loves books so they wanted to each get [...]
We are knee deep in the fun phase of our life
Saturday, June 17th, 2006Bill and I are is the fun phase of our lives. We never really partied or went crazy in college. We were basically there to learn the information we needed to to graduate and move on to the next phase of our lives. Although we did not have kids for a very long time we [...]
Mimi is growing up
Friday, June 16th, 2006Last night Mimi sat in a booster chair at dinner and ate off a big girl plate. When did this happen? Seemed like just yesterday she could barely see over the tray in the high chair. Now looks like she no longer needs them. I have to say that I am eager to get the [...]
I’m Coldy
Friday, June 16th, 2006This is Annie’s new phrase. She likes to run about in just her underwear and since it is 111° outside we have the A/C set pretty low. So when she is just sitting around watching tv or playing she will tell us, “I coldy.” It is completely pathetic and yet serious! How can the child [...]
Slip Sliding away!
Friday, June 16th, 2006The other day we bought the girls a slip and slide. Although the box said 5 and up I was sure that was just for lawsuit purposes. I bought it and set it up for the girls yesterday. They LOVED it!! Especially Mimi which is odd since she does not like bathing or swimming all [...]
Mommy is home!
Tuesday, June 13th, 2006I loved the time to relax and complete Annie and Kimberly’s baby books. I loved that I was able to do such complex layouts and really showcase my children. I think that these will be treasured memories. I got a whopping 68 pages completed this weekend!!! It was amazing. My cousin Michelle completed 36! That [...]

Tuesday, June 13th, 2006We are back from the outpatient surgery. Mimi did terrific. She is an amazing baby. Last night we were up from 1-2 so I figured she had another ear infection. I was right!! Thankfully it is cleared up now. She is recovering well and happy to be home. It was so cute, during surgery they [...]
She’s Tripping
Saturday, June 10th, 2006I’m on Day 2 of her trip. So far things have been pretty good; I don’t know why she always acts like it’s hard taking care of them. I’m only kidding. They’ve been overall pretty good so far but meal times have been, as I expected, maddening. First, it’s hard to decide what they might [...]
