Narcolepsy 101

Evidently I suffer from this rare sleeping disease. For if I am stationary for more then 3 minutes, I fall asleep. Hard. This afternoon I was awoken from my 50 minute cat-nap to my 13 month old devil, I mean son, beating me with a 2 foot long plastic carrot. No he really was beating me. Swung that sucker like Barry Bonds on steroids. 90 minutes later when the boy was napping, I made the mistake of sitting down again. Woke up 90 minutes later feeling like death warmed over. Or kitty litter. Now it is 930pm and I am ready to go to bed. Good nighhhhhhhhhh

How cute

Aiden being well....Aiden

The sweetest thing

I got my first real kiss this morning. Last night Will and I went on a date. It was wonderful to get just 2 hours of me and hubby time. We ate way too much food, laughed, and got soaked (spring rains here are torrential down pours). So last night was the first night someone other then Will or I put him to bed (he did great). This morning I rocked him before his nap and he was showing me all the noises that he can make with his mouth. Out of the blue he puckers up and gives me a big ole kiss on the lips. This is the first kiss that has not been opened mouth, with tongue, and 5 gallons of drool attached. It was so sweet and he was sop proud of himself that he clapped. My boy is special. Moments like those make the impending arrival of baby brother a little less terrifying!

Little moments

makes being a mom the greatest job in the world. I get out of the shower tonight and go check on the girls (there bed time is out the window since it is the start of Spring Break) and I see Aileen and Lauren on Aileen's bed. Aileen is reading to Lauren! I am so proud of my girls!

They grow up so fast

I can't believe how grown up my babies look! This year Aileen will be in double digits for age (although she acts like she is 16 now) and Lauren will be entering 1st grade. I am not ready to have kids this old!

Is it?

Is it possible to prevent leg cramps, that you can eat to many bananas? After the week with Bex and then chasing 6 kids everyday for the next week, my legs are fried. And they aren't afraid to tell me. So on advise from Mommy and doctor, I have eaten enough bananas to have my opposable thumbs taken away.

I am done with the whole pregnant thing. That is gone, with a D!
