My mom, sister and her kids came down on Friday to spend the night. Four years ago, we all got together and let the kids make gingerbread houses out of graham crackers, icing and various candies. We decided to do it again this year, except this time there were three new participants. Very willing participants, I must say. Tori helped… Read More
A $10 afternoon
On Friday both Asher and Dalton stayed home because of a yucky tummy bug that was going around school. Thankfully neither of them felt badly so we decided to go to a local indoor play place that I hadn’t been courageous enough to brave. But a friend told me about the great deal they have on Thursday and Friday: buy… Read More
boo hoo
The other day the girls were sitting on the couch playing. Next thing I knew, Sophie was crying. As I suspected, Isabelle slugged Sophie over some toy. Belle does that often and Sophie knows that turning on the tears is the surest way to get her in trouble. I talked to Belle and I told her not to hit her… Read More
Jammies
Pajamas. Or, in our house, jammies. And we all love ’em. I have a thing for buying my kids jammies – too many of them. In fact, Chris has had to tell me to stop buying jammies for the boys once they reach about five since he doesn’t think boys that age should be indulging in jammies. Needless to say,… Read More
It’s baaaaccckkk!!!
Yes. It arrived today via the very nice FedEx guy. It was still cold when I pulled it from the packaging and started to take some long awaited pics of the girls. I think I appreciate this camera even more now 🙂
A visit to the beauty shop
I took the girls to get haircuts today at Sweet and Sassy, a local salon ‘just for kids’. I was a bit worried about how Isabelle would act, she hasn’t been on her very best behavior the last few weeks 😉 I needn’t have worried, the girl loved getting a beauty treatment. Isabelle got about 1″ cut off since her… Read More

Sophie and baby
Sophie was playing in her closet (as I was trying to clean it out to make room for their new clothes ;)) and came across a baby doll carrier. She recognized it immediately and ran to find her baby. She needed a little help getting her baby situated on her back, and was all smiles after that.
Busted
The girls were quiet. Too quiet. When I came around the corner and saw what they were doing, I had to duck into the other room to laugh. Isabelle was sitting on the floor surrounded in candy wrappers, a tootsie pop in each hand. Sophie was standing over her with a tootsie pop in her hand and some plastic beads… Read More
The Zoo!
November is National Adoption Month. In honor of this, the Atlanta Zoo was open last Saturday to any and all adoptive families, free of charge, as long as you had a printed invitation from your agency. Needless to say, with a family this size, we jumped on that offer like a dog on a t-bone. It was a chilly day… Read More
