Just another day...

I know some people probably think I post these pictures for family and friends to see how the kids are growing, etc., but the truth is - I do it for myself. Things have been crazy (thats a whole other blog), but it all comes down to the fact that I have two beautiful, healthy, delicious children that I spend about 20 hours a day raising and I think I am doing a fairly good job. In some weird way, by posting these pictures, it solidifies what I know to be the truth - that I am extraordinarily lucky in my life and remembering that is what keeps me sane (for the most part).

Cozy as a cucumber...

Swaddling saved our life with Amelia and has proved successful with Leo as well. I guess they are so used to being cuddled all day, that at night, they dont want the feeling to end. The other one isn't "swaddling" per se, I simply put him down so that I could go to the bathroom alone, for a change, and he seemed comfortable so I left him there - whatever works, right?

Now you know where the name for the blog comes from...

This is my "paycheck"...and it comes everyday :)

One month old and are we having fun!

I actually can't believe that it has been a whole month since Leo has been around. It's life as usual for us in terms of where we go on a daily basis. Leo has been to gymnastics with us, preschool, and has continued the tradition that Amelia started of going to all of Mommy's doctors appointments. We have eaten in restaurants, been to the library, and have had a really *fun* time, just as I promised Amelia we would.
