These look like ordinary keys to you but they are not! They are the keys to our new home. Our first home. We are excited beyond belief. Thank you Mom and Dad!!



Here’s the handsome boy with his one toy that’s not packed.







Nathaniel isn’t really sleeping at night. It’s making me a bit crazy but I know it will be over soon so I am just trying to hang in there.







This is going to be a long long week for us so cross your fingers. See you when I have internet again.

I know, I know. It’s dark in my house, photos come out blurry. I am working on it. But look at those hands! Quiet, happy day here. Nathaniel napped like on schedule every two hours. Yes!







We have no food left at home and all of his toys are packed so David’s been watching movies and eating crackers. Yes, I know I am a terrible mom.

Here’s my handsome boy. David went to his friend Halina’s birthday today and Jake sent me videos from there as it was happenning and it was so fun. I love technology so much. And here he is playing with Nathaniel.







I love all my boys so so much!







I had a wonderful 90 minutes today as I visited my friend Cole’s new house. Delicious food, wonderful company, and great conversation. Thank you, Cole!



Tomorrow starts our big week. Please cross your fingers for us.

Nahaniel is totally smiling now and David loves it. He spend a good bit of the morning talking to him and imitating him (hence his open mouth) and singing to him. He’s just the bestest. And I snapped this shot. I know it’s blurry but I love the face Nathaniel is making so I’m keeping it.







Lots of good work done this morning. A few more days and the chaos will be done I think. At least one chaos. Then the other one will begin. But still….Well little boy just fell asleep and I think that’s my cue to go to bed. Even though it’s only 7:43pm. G’nite.

Last night I finally decided to give Nathaniel the milk I’d been saving. If I waited a few more days, it was going to go bad. I’m going to have to pump a whole bunch this weekend as next week is hectic with lots of people in and out of our house so I won’t be able to nurse as easily. Here’s David giving milk to the baby. He thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Then again, he’s just the sweetest boy. Nathaniel, on the other hand, wasn’t in the best mood.







I wanted to take a photo of both kids and here’s David being his sweet, accomodating self and Nathaniel, not so much.







After a bunch of nursing, a nap, some burping later, he finally was in a good mood.







Not much light in this house. I can’t wait to move. On other news, Nathaniel is definitely tracking now, nice to see that progress and he gives big, huge smiles throughout the day. We did a few more errands today (hard as they are with two kids) and packed a few more boxes. Here’s something I learned while I packed my minibooks: I need to use more (or stronger) adhesive. All the embellishments were falling off. Ugh.



Happy weekend!

Here’s Nathaniel attempting to do tummy time. Actually if you see the big photo, you’ll see he’s not doing tummy time at all. Jusy lying there. Hmmmm….







And here’s David making funny faces. He loves making these faces when I grab the camera. As you can also see, we spend a lot of our day in pajamas lately. Need to get into a better routine but there’s too much going on right now so I am cutting myself some slack. July 1 is going to be a week of changes here. Mark my words.







Good day today. I spent the day without a lot of expectations and such was relaxed and spent my time reading people’s old blog entries (loving discovering new things this way and getting to see a person’s blogging growth). Still managed to do a few more chores and pack a few boxes. Making progress. Very slowly but still…

The photos today aren’t so good but honestly I am amazed I took photos at all. I got about an hour of sleep all night last night. Nathaniel decided it was fun to play all night and then struggled from 2-7am when I finally gave up and got up for the day.







I still got done a bunch of chores, not as much as I would have liked but here’s to tomorrow being a better day.

Nathaniel lying on daddy’s shoulders. He loves his dad. And he loves David. He smiles at him all the time and today he was tracking him and watching all that he does. And here he is with his long long lashes.







Today was a big day here. Jake was home. We got a lot of stuff done and took a big step. The baby didn’t sleep much at all last night so I was dead tired. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Especially since I have to go to AAA and do yet another list of long chores. So cross your fingers for me.

David loves playing with Nathaniel’s toys. I love that he doesn’t think they are silly or childish. He’s a great big brother to play with. And here’s the baby with a hint of a smile.







Slow but productive day. Made a few appointments, packed a few boxes, not too much but slow progress. Tomorrow is a big day here, let’s see how it goes.

I love this boy. I cannot believe he’s mine. I cherish him so much. And here’s another shot of Nathaniel sleeping. Jake took this one while he was in my arms. Doesn’t he look so peaceful?







Another day of blog surfing and baby hugging. Nothing else to report. Happy Sunday.

Sleeping peacefully. Pretty rare but happens every now and then. And I look at him and all I want to do is hold him, kiss him, hug him, and kiss him some more. Quiet morning over here as we relax and watch TV and play games and just enjoy a simple Saturday.







Feeling exceptionally hormonal today. Not sure why. Who even knows why it comes and goes. I have been discovering new blogs and going back to my favorites and reading their old old entries from years ago. I’ve been inspired and thoughtful. It made me want to write more. read more. think more. expect some entries to come. assuming i can find the time to sit and write.

Isn’t he so beautiful? Ok, so I am biased. I do think those eyes are gonna stay blue, though. And here’s the big brother figuring out how to put together a lego toy our neighbors left on our doorstep for him. We have the best neighbors.







Quiet day here. David’s officially on vacation now so I have to figure out what to do for the summer. I think soccer, swimming and gymnastics classes for him, so he’s not bored and I’ll make daily schedules for us. Ten more days and we can organize our life a bit better. Let’s see.
