TINEVWTF Thursday

Today, I never ever want to forget the way Emma's face lit up when she saw the new sundress I bought her.  She twirled a couple times and then went to check herself out in the mirror.  It doesn't matter to her that it is a $5 bargain from W*lmart.       Any new dress is worth is worth a few good twirls!
Today, I never want to forget that Ben asked for the very first time for a towel to be tied around his neck. I see a new Superman cape in his near future!

And finally, today I never ever want to forget the way Emma smothered me with kisses and Ben ran up out of the blue just to give me a hug.  My sweethearts!

"Wordless Wednesday"


Ok.  Just a few words.
I love my family.
That is all.

Wordless Wednesday





TINEWTF

Today, I never ever want to forget the day Emma heard a plane, put her hands on her cheeks, and said with the most childlike wonder, "Can you hear that?" over and over like it was the magical sound.  

Today, I never ever want to forget the way Ben looked up at me with those enormous brown eyes and said for the first time,         "I wuv you, Mama."  

Be still my heart.

"Way Back When-esday": First KFC

The occasion: Family playtime and dinner at our favorite park
When: Sept. 2010
Ben and Emma were 10 months old

We had decided at the spur of the moment to go get some KFC and have dinner at our favorite park.  We had fun that night swinging and crawling around on the grass.  But the best part of the evening was watching Ben and Emma have their first taste of KFC.  Patrice was sharing with Ben when all of a sudden, he reached out and grabbed Patrice's chicken!  
Ben wanted it all for himself!





A wonderful evening!

I'm linking up today with Cheryl @ http://twinfatuation.blogspot.com/
Join the fun!

The Cobwebs Are back

Christmas Eve.
That was the last day that I posted on this sorry little blog.
Pathetic, I know.
No excuses.
Our little family is well.
We've had some upheavals in the last few weeks.
A job change which has changed the way our family works.
Can I just say that the graveyard shift sucks?
Those of you who know me well know how much I hate 
the "s" word so I must really mean it!
There are days we see Patrice for 15 minutes 
at the most and that sucks.
But we are surviving and hopefully soon we will get used to it and I will be able to sleep again.

Sooo...I promise to be better at posting. 
There are many cute pictures and stories to share.
Ben and Emma are getting crazier and cuter by the day.
This proud Mama needs to share!

Be back soon, I promise.
(But we all know how bad I am at keeping promises!)
