Fun Snowy Days! - Saturday Feb. 20th

It's been a long time. A really really long time...

For whatever reason, I was inspired today to get back on the horse and check my blog for the first time in many months...and actually feel inspired to say HELLO (to no one, I'm sure...as any followers I had are now long gone). Maybe that's what makes it feel nice is that now I don't have any accountability, so I can just go about my days, and when the mood strikes me, I can throw a few funny photos on here...or not. And hopefully no one will be disappointed either way.
Can't believe that my kids are growing up so stinkin' fast. Madelyn is 40 months old (ha!) and Connor is 16 months. They amaze me and exhaust me every day. And I'm so smitten with them both. I have so many cute and hilarious video clips lately but it's so time-consuming to load them on here. I wish that was an easier task. Who knows, maybe Blogger has made some improvements since last April. Ha! Well, I'll see about getting some recent photos on here, and then I'll just go from there.
Hello world, I'm baaaaaaaaack!

Connor in the jumper.

Just so you know (whoever "you" are??!)...most of the time when I'm on the computer Connor is right here next to me in the bathroom doorway bouncing happily. Unless it's already naptime, this is the ONLY way I can accomplish a few minutes of computer time. But in the short time it took me to upload these cute photos, his sweet smile has already turned to a loud scream! Yikes. So much for trying to update my blog. More on that...some other day!!!!!

Blogging Slacker

Well, it's been WAY too long since I've taken the time to upload some photos and stories of my sweet kids. I have no excuse. Just life. We've been enjoying some nicer weather these days and have taken advantage of it! Today we went out looking at different preschool programs as Madelyn will be ready for a basic two-day a week class starting in the fall. And apparently you have to get them signed up NOW to secure a spot. I'm trying to learn all these important mommy things! I'm excited to say that today we found our school and we're so excited (namely Maddy!) It's called the Gahanna Early Experience Center and they have a perfect program for her...and only 2 spots left. Whew! I better send in my deposit tomorrow.

After a fun morning at the preschool we came home and made fresh juice with my new fantastic juicer (thanks mom and dad!). Maddy helped with the whole process. Today we used 2 apples, 1 pear, 1 orange, many strawberries and grapes, 2 celery, 1 carrot and 1 cucumber. Our fresh juice concoction turned out to be delicious (and so healthy)! Now both kids are sleeping soundly, and Connor looked so darn cute that I had to take some photos. So, here you go! My beautiful slumbering baby.
