" Children laugh an average of three hundred or more times a day; adults laugh an average of five times a day. We have a lot of catching up to do."
Heather King, CRIB NOTES



So we did it, we made it through our first babysitter, "TAPE" as Zoe calls her or Tate as her known name is. Hannah cried for about 15 minutes she said and then things went great. All Zoe did after she left was ask for "TAPE" to come over and play!!! Great, thats the reassurance a mom needs in this situation!!! Well off for another busy day, to the mall and a girls night tonight. Comedy night at Jokers, maybe a little dancing and maybe a little girl talk! A much needed date after three weeks of a routineless life! Good luck to dad while Im gone due to Hannahs lack of sleeping nights!

Woo hoo! See you in an hour or so!!!

When it rains.....it pores:)

So here I am visiting the great town of wenatchee- great friends good family and two children! A two year old and a 6 week old. Never have I traveled this far ( 2 1/2 hours) by myself with them and the trip there- fantastic!! Well on the way home I was stopped by a road crew blowing up rocks- 20 minute delay- okay, so we wait the twenty minutes. We pass the flagger and of course it has been 2 hours since I fed the newborn so its time to eat she screams- we make it to the rest stop and POW its closed, so we pull over! Then in the middle of feeding my two year old yells POTTY MOMMY, POTTY MOMMY- great- I say. So I give her the option to go outside- NO WAY so I say " lets put on your sisters diaper and just this one time you can go in a diaper" NO WAY aaaaaaaaaaaa- what do I do...well, there is a fruit stand up the road! So we hop in the car, get to the fruit stand and I plead my case- YES they say, you can use the toilet!!!
okay, I think we are good to go...but of course we get behind three truckers!!!
So long story short our 2 1/2 hour trip ends up taking us almost four and we make it home to a loving husband and father and a batch of peanut butter cookies from the neighbor!
I guess there is always a rainbow at the end of a rainstorm- HUH?
