January 1 at 2:12pm: got Elzi and Lillian both to eat pork and sauerkraut. It's a good thing too, because I made way too much for two people.
January 2 at 6:08pm: does not want to go back to work tomorrow. I was just starting getting into a good routine at home. I think I would be pretty good house wife/SAHM. Oh, well...
January 10 at 3:16pm: how can the museum close 2 hours early when there has not been a flake yet? Crying 2 year-olds do not understand :(
January 21 at 11:45pm: You can never tell someone how their life will change when they become a parent. It is something they have to experience for themselves.
January 22 at 9:12pm: Lillian has been in and out of her crib/bedroom for an hour now. The last time I went in she was laying on the floor with her pillow and silky. It may be time for toddler beds :(
January 24 at 6:18pm: loves that my daughter can now open the door to let the dog in. I can't wait until she can dust and mop!
January 25 at 12:07am: Night 1 transition to toddler beds: girls go to sleep in the same bed.
January 25 at 7:19am: can't believe my girls are still asleep after taking it upon themselves to go to sleep in the same bed last night. This is the longest they have slept in for weeks. Maybe they really like sharing a bed.
January 25 at 9:04pm: Night 2 in toddler beds: or should I say BED. Time til sleep down from 45 to 30 minutes. :)
January 26 at 9:30pm: has no cute pictures for night 3. They are actually sleeping in their own beds tonight.
January 30 at 6:43pm: being able to take the girls outside today made me really look forward to spring.
February 1 at 7:09pm: Thanks for all the birthday wishes, everyone! The best was when I came home today and my daughters each said, "Happy Birthday, Momma." So sweet!
February 3 at 7:29am: When I went into the girls' room this morning wearing Ben's clothes for gender-bender day one of the girls called me momma and the other said, "Daddy!"
February 19 at 2:07pm: hired a babysitter for the first time to go to the Hurricane's game tonight!
March 24 at 8:27pm: You know your face is broken out when your kids are counting the "boo-boos" on your chin in spanish. It turns out I have tres :/
March 29 at 8:39pm: I keep hearing, "Acorn, flower, acorn, flower..." through the monitor. It must have been today's Umi-Zoomi pattern.
April 20 at 12:11pm: Some kids sleep with a teddy bear, some with their blankie. My daughter is napping with her Dora potty seat. If only she would use it for its intended purpose...
April 21 at 1:08pm: And we're off. Kid-free for 3 days!
May 10 at 7:33pm: Enjoying a kid-free evening with dinner out and an impromptu ticket to Hair.
June 22 at 10:28pm: I need potty training advice: They will pee pretty much every time they are put on the potty. How do I get them to go to the potty instead of peeing in their pants?
June 29 at 2:14pm: I'm pretending my children are not awake from their nap.
July 21 at 8:30pm: Elzi seems to be practicing her "model" look
July 27 at 10:44am: Sesame Street just did a parody of True Blood called "True Mud," complete with theme song. Pretty sure I enjoyed it more than the girls.
July 27 at 2:14pm: My children have successfully spent 2 sleepless hours in their bedroom, and since I now hear, "Yee-Haw!" coming from their room I think it is time to give up on the nap for today.
July 28 at 12:58pm: came home from the museum to dog diarrhea on the floor. Lillian says, "Elzi, look at all da poop!"- Humor can make a disgusting situation a bit more tolerable.
July 30 at 12:24pm: Fell asleep mid-action - arm propped on magna doodle and leg crossed
