Wiggle Worm

Nothing too exciting going on in this video. Miss Evelyn has just received a diaper change and is showing you how she has ants in her pants.

Glorious!

Today is glorious! It's the first time in 21 days that we haven't had to be anywhere. No one has to be bathed or dressed. The car doesn't have to be packed. No food has to be prepared. No presents wrapped. No clothes ironed. It's glorious! Evy seems to like it too. She's currently 2.5 hours into a nap.

Regular Exercise

I've been trying really hard to fit regular exercise into my schedule. On Tuesday and Thursday nights I make myself workout after I get Evy to bed. Then, if I can get one workout in on the weekend I feel like I've done pretty good for the week. Last night for my exercise I walked to and from Dairy Queen. That counts, right?!

Dr.'s Appointments

Since returning to work in January I don't think I've worked an entire week. I am constantly running off to doctor's appointments. AND...I only have one child. Do those of you with 3 kids actually show up to work more than 35 hours a week? Running around to all of Evy's appointments caused me to forget about keeping up with my own health needs. I just realized I am out of contacts....eye appointment next week. The following week: Evy's follow up for her tubes. The next week....Evy's 9 month appointment. We get a week off and then the following week I have a dentist appointment. Thank goodness I missed no work for the last 8 years so I have time accrued to be gone! Just another reason I don't think full time work for both parents goes along very well with this parenthood thing.

All-Star Day

Scott is in St. Louis for work and one of his suppliers invited him to the All-Star Game tonight. Should be fun! President Obama is throwing out the first pitch. Meanwhile, I'll be engaged in my own all-star activity--attempting to entertain a maniac baby.

Giant Baby

Giant baby? Or, small wagon?

The Last One Bites the Dust

Six years ago Scott and I were the first of Scott's college friends to get hitched. Since then we've traveled to Dallas, Chicago (a few times) and Mexico to help everyone celebrate their marriages. The wedding parties are always a blast! Although the girls' dresses have gotten more conservative, the party doesn't go quite as late, and the morning after recovery really hurts because we have babies to take care of. We love all the spouses (the guys all married up) just as much as the guys and consider these couples to be some of our best friends. This weekend we married off Joe. The last bachelor standing. Congratulations Joe and Kara!
