I have been sitting at the computer for over an hour now, and I have managed to download a hundred pictures, make a shutterfly book for my grandma's birthday and add some shots to my facebook page.   Now, with my face sliding off my skull in fatigue, I wonder if just posting a bunch of pictures from the weekend counts as doing a blog post. Pictures are a tricky…

Tomorrow Casey and I celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary!   It seems like just yesterday, and a while lifetime, all at once.   Casey is the man of my dreams!!   (I love you, sweetie!)  Here' s a flashback, just for fun: This was taken halfway through our honeymoon.   I can hardly believe how young we both look... I was just shy of 30 and Casey was the age…

... that try a Mama's soul.   Kenny.   Oh boy.   I love him and  yet  he is beginning a new era in driving me insane.   It seems that no matter how much time I spend with him - completely one on one, or in conjunction with Cooper (with Kenny of course being the center of attention and sweet Cooper just happy to be there), he demands more.…

And you wonder why I do not blog more often...  
Some days I feel like I'm running ahead of the game: up early, laundry in, coffee made, run with Dudley, shower, matching clothes on body, reading to kids, making cookies, catching up on my own reading, actually stringing together an entire sentence to speak.   Other days, I'm running in place: kids fed and dressed and nobody cries (too much).   Then there are the days when I feel like…

... oops.   It looks like we need to re-baby proof the house.   Cooper is mobile! Though he's been "scooting" for a while now, The Crawl finally clicked and my little superman is now able to get wherever it is he wants to go.   Not very fast, mind you, but he can get there. It happened (oh, Irony!) on Sunday afternoon when Kenny and I were on our…

If my original purpose for starting MommyBlog was to document my life with my boys - a sort-of virtual baby book, if you would - then today is one to recount in full, because I want to remember it! Today after church, I took Kenny into downtown DC, to the Kennedy Center, to see the National Symphony Orchestra.   It was one of their "Concerts for Kids" and the theme…

Or at least, crawling back into the  rhythym of daily life. Before I start really writing, I have a question for my readers who have "mommy blogs" of their own: do you ever sit down to write - at the end of the day, at naptime, or whenever  - and think, "I just finally got a moment free from the little buggers, and now I'm supposed to think of something…
