 That's one happy boy after his bottle!
 


Ready to roll!


 Sometimes we can't get her to smile or look at the camera. Other times she poses!

I went to the store...

I went to the store this morning.  No extraordinary activity.  No exciting purchase to make.  Just groceries and a some household items.  But, oh how different it was.

I left the house today, with my regular purse.  No diaper bag or princess dolls or stuffed animals. 

I listened to Adele instead of Disney Princess songs or Baby Mozart.

I parked in any parking spot.  I didn't search for the spot closest to a cart corral for easiest dispersing of groceries, children and cart. 

I shopped with a Starbucks coffee in my hand instead of a sippy cup or juice box.
 
I obtained my entire grocery list without interruption. 

I did not stop to see the fish. 
I did not stop to see the lobsters. 
I did not stop to see the princess cake in the bakery.

I scanned all my own groceries at the You-Scan lane.

I did not search my purse for a stray penny and no one rode Sandy the horse.

I drove home with my radio loud and sang off tune as loud as I wanted, until...

a lone tear ran down my cheek.  

Did I actually miss my little distractions?
Or was it the Adele song?

I do know that I went to the store this morning.  With my Starbucks, my lipstick, and my purse.
Oh, how different it was.

almost 2 weeks...

Well, the last (almost) 2 weeks have been exciting!  We have added a new member to our family and have had the joy of discovering him.   Ty has been such a calm baby!  He doesn't cry much and seems to sleep well!  He also squeaks when he eats.  Too cute :)



Ella has also been busy these 2 weeks.   She tried a gymnastics class and seemed to enjoy it! Now she is in swim class again, which she says is her favorite.  







 

Blueberry picking!  Ella had Blue-licious day!
