Lately:
*Writing only one-ish blog post a month. Eek.
*So proud of Connor for being accepted into our school district's gifted and talented program. (This is the first year he's old enough to be eligible.)
*Celebrating Father's Day with the Mr's new fire pit, roastinghot dogs and s'mores.
*Enjoying a full night's sleep when my mom keeps Priscilla overnight. (Once every week or two.)
*Sometimes getting up at 3 or 4AM to work on Simply Handmade before going to my other full time job.
*Dinner and a movie last night.
*Being SO thankful that Jason is back from his two week military training. It was a really busy two weeks. (Translation: Working sixty hours a week, taking care of two children, and waking up with a baby each night starts to wear on a person! Part of the military life, I suppose. I just can't imagine how mothers with new babies and deployed husbands do it!)
*Connor's awesome football-themed 8th birthday party.
*LOTS of birthday parties lately!
*Deciding to learn [a little] French for our upcoming spring trip to Normandy and Paris. Can you guess who chose each place? Ha.
*Crafting projects for Simply Handmade.
*Learning that my brother and sister-in-law are having a GIRL!! I'm thrilled that she and Priscilla will be so close in age!
Below are some photos I've taken lately. I have tons of photos on my camera that I still need to download, but for now, you just get blurry phone photos. :)
(Okay, I really need to take some photos of my children when they are awake!)
That's all for today. I hope everyone has a happy weekend!
