Whatever you do, do not put Isaac down. But most important make sure he is close to a food source at all times!! If you do not follow these rules you may experience this.

Father's Day



Me and my boys are so lucky to have Sam. He is such a good dad. I don't think he even knows how much we love him. Sam is the kind of dad who gets dirty with Elijah and laughs when Isaac is in his zen spot. He takes being a dad very seriously because he wants his boys to know he loves them and that he is there for them. He also knows when to laugh and when to play with them. When I watch him interact with the boys or I hear him have a conversation with Elijah I fall even more in love with him. Thank you Sam for working so hard for your family.
My dad is the reason I picked Sam. My dad has worked so hard for his kids and I know he loves having all of us in his life. Even though we cause him stress. My dad is one of my best friends, he is one of the people I call when I need someone to talk to. I am a lucky woman to have him and to have Sam!

6 weeks!!






That's right my baby is six weeks old! Isaac is so cute. He is smiling and working on laughing. Plus he is the cutest rolly polly baby! He is happy as long as he is eating or being held. I have to carry him in the front carrier if I want to get anything done.
Elijah got his cast off! I am so happy for him but not so happy for me. That means he is back to full on running, riding his bike, riding the skateboard (at least trying to), and climbing.
I started running and doing pilates again. Running with a double jogger is a lot of work! Pilates is hard when your stomach muscles are almost non-existent. I keep thinking after pushing the double jogger for a year I will be a bad-ass mama! Then I can start training for a triathlon.
Sam is keeping busy with school and work. He is still riding his bike to work every day even in all this rain.

My days go by so fast. I keep thinking I might have this whole mom of two thing down and then one of the boys does something to let me know this is a learning process and I just have to go with the flow. Between chasing Elijah and constantly feeding Isaac there is little time left for other things. Elijah is currently interested in ice, we fill the ice trays and have to keep checking the freezer throughout the day to see when it becomes ice (did I mention he is two). Isaac is getting so big, he is getting a double chin and thunder thighs. I think chunky baby's are so cute.
Eric and Juanita got married one week ago. I am so happy for them! Eric is a good man and deserves all the good things in life.
Yesterday was Lucas' birthday. For some reason him turning 26 makes me feel old. If he gets old that really means I am old!
Lucas is going to Africa at the end of this month and my mom is going to Japan. I will be at home wondering what they are bringing me back.
Bama is here visiting! It has been nice to have her and nice for her to see the boys and watch Elijah in action. We tried to go to the zoo one day but we got rained out. Mostly we have been hanging out at home but it has been a nice visit.
