Pics!

Yep, thats my tongue!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

What a fun weekend!! We went to the farm yesterday to "test" out how S would do in a car seat for that long. He did wonderfully, G, not so much. He sang the sleepy song all the way there and it took forever for him to give up on the way home! We had a BLAST at the park!!!

Today we went to church and my family took me out for lunch. I was able to leave the house for a while (BY MYSLEF!). We grilled out for supper and it was a small slice of heaven! Here are a few pics of the weekend.

Free time?

I've been notified that I haven't updated this site in a while. I'm thinking that I have a good excuse, right? Between the lack of sleep and the abscence of computer time, its been a bit difficult.

All in all, things are going well and everybody is starting to settle into being a family of four. Nobody seems to be sleeping through the night, but we are hoping that it will get better soon. This baby's adjustment, although frustrating at times, has really been nothing short of miraculous. In the past couple of days he has started playing with us and smiling a lot more. I have to keep reminding myself that he has only been home a month!

It was an interesting night last night. I had to run to the basement when the tornado sirens started going off. It was crazy trying to get everything and everyone downstairs by myself! The tornados missed us in the early evening. Fortunately, we have a weather alert radio and it woke us up saying that we were in a thunderstorm warning. When the 80 mph winds hit and the house shook, I was REALLY glad to know what was happening. THANKFULLY, we were not hurt and we only lost a bit of the fence in the back yard. Buildings, roofs and houses were completly lost about 8 blocks from our house! It was a rough night and we are still trying to get in touch with friends, but so far, everyone is safe!

I'm attachging a couple of pics to help appease those who have sent requests!! :)

One is a picture of the big little man making an attempt at NOT getting dressed! As you can see, he finally gave in.
