The Evening Post

So I stupidly drank coffee at around 6pm. I know I will regret this when 2am rolls around and I am still wide awake but, I couldn't help it! In a weak moment I buckled under my sweet tooth and bought some strawberry cheesecake danish (drool). It is my favorite dessert. And one cannot eat danish without coffee! Plus I had been craving coffee all day. JUST LOOK... how can anyone resist this?!

I can see the sparks emulating from peoples' drool-ridden keyboards now. I've been pretty good this pregnancy. I've been denying myself many odd cravings (mostly for fast food). But, I said out loud to Noah in the grocery store "mommy's getting some danish... know why? because she's pregnant and she wants some and she can eat whatever she wants, whenever she wants". This may not be the truest of true statements, but I think it's pretty accurate. The caffeine and sugar are surging through my veins and I am full of nothing but happiness. Here's another wonderful thing no one in their right mind could resist. JUST LOOK at him! Isn't he the most adorable child you've ever seen (besides your own, you biased mommies)?!

With his little OU Sooners hat and OSU buckeyes shirt, posing all cute, ears sticking out because the hat's too big, bruises and scars and scrapes everywhere. That's my baby :) Can you believe some people pass this child and don't smile! What is wrong with people?! Noah and I took late naps from 3-5pm so now we're set back an hour or 2 from the normal bedtime. I think because we're both so full of energy we're going to go out somewhere. Noah's requesting to see ducks, which might be OK at such a late hour. I just don't know if I'm ready for that ghetto duck park again yet. The kids' section of a bookstore might be nice. Noah needs some new books anyway.

My bad craving today was Mexican food and I talked Mark into going to our favorite Mexican restaurant for a last horah before Ember arrives :)(We NEVER go out to eat!)So it was a nice treat and Ava even ate chips & salsa!
My other craving is rocky road ice cream....mmmmm.That danish does look good though!!

Drool is right... the only problem I see with that photo of the danish is that the slice is waaaay too small! Or maybe that's just the part you didn't eat? Anything cheesecakey is my weakness...

Anybody who passes by Noah and doesn't smile must be distracted by a hemorrhoid or something because he's beyond cute. I hope if you went to the duck park that the stray hats left you alone!

Brit- That's so greta you guys got to go out! We hardly ever go out either. It's difficult with babies, they just don't cooperate.

Pam- That was just my first piece. I had 2 more :P LOL I will watch out for the stray hats!

Almost Doesn't Count

We almost ended up with a puppy today. An adorable baby Jack Russell Terrier mix wandered into our yard. He was very sweet, laid back, flea-ridden, dirty, cute, a little broken, good temperament, un-fixed, and very very good with Noah and Emma. I asked the neighbors about him and they showed me where the owner lived. She took him inside and told me how he's driving her crazy because he chews through collars and gets out of the yard (which is because he's a puppy and not an outside breed). She mentioned possibly getting rid of him. Lo and behold he wandered back into our yard not too long after that... interesting. I wanted to adopt him because he was unwanted, but shouldn't have been. He was a very sweet dog. I would have called him Jackie I think :) This brings me to a rant. I know I've posted about the way people around here treat their pets. This is a perfect example. This lady didn't want the puppy anymore so she simply let it go. No collar, no tags

Still Happy!! HOORAY!!

We're still going strong with our happiness levels out here. Yesterday was a little bit rough because Tristan was especially whiney, but today was amazing :) We got our grocery shopping done and even managed to have fun doing that! Noah and I were singing Christmas songs already while Tris and Bren laughed at us. Tristan sometimes piped in with a "all the way" when we were singing Jingle Bells. Noah was cracking up when I sang him the Batman version :D After all that excitement the 2 wee ones went down for their naps and Noah and I gave Bosley a bath with his new tea extract shampoo. He looks and smells so wonderful now :) He was in such a good mood after that too! Noah made a concoction of plum leaves, olives, dirt, and paper which he called "olive a cado". While he was doing his own grocery shopping I was taking some macro shots with my new focus point knowledge. I'm very happy. I thought I loved my camera before! Anyway... We also built a littl

Victim Triangle

Thought I would share this on here since I've shared it with at least 3 people individually at this point.  I've been working on  establishing and maintaining healthy personal boundaries  so any instance in my life where I have unhealthy boundaries have been really obvious.  Still not great at dealing with those instances, but I'm getting better all the time.  While I'm working, this keeps popping up at different times to illustrate my inter/intra-personal communication cycles that need to be broken. https://www.karpmandramatriangle.com/ The hardest part for me has been recovering from taking responsibility for everyone's emotional state.  I would feel immense pressure to involve myself in other peoples' triangles, thinking I had to play the mediator role.  I would get intense feelings of anxiety, thinking about their expectations of me to fix their relationship... or feel it was my duty to point out if I saw an issue (without ever being asked or expected
