More Pictures

I ended up taking a few more shots today because Noah was being so stinkin' weird and crazy. He was also being a bit of a brat... my fault for not making him nap today. He always gets crazy if he doesn't get a nap. He was hitting everything with this plastic tube and screaming. He never hit me or the baby so I was just kind of watching him go nuts. My excuse will be that I wanted him to burn energy. He also was crawling around the deck, kissing my feet, "I love feet" and cracking up. Then he was crawling under my chair telling me "I love butt" and cracking up. Already with the little boy potty humor.

It was so nice once the sun was off the deck. There was a great breeze blowing and it was maybe 76 or so in the shade. We stayed out until it was bed time. Usually when the sun goes down the mosquitoes come out. I ended up putting a pair of jeans on to try and save myself from the tiny vampires. I hate mosquitoes :P I got a much better picture of Tristan's new beautiful chub! :) I love cuddling with my babies... but not when they're covered in sweat, chalk, jelly, yogurt, boogers, and whatever other nastiness managed to stick to 'em that day. That's why new babies are so great haha.

Oh,I just love that last picture,the 1st one of Noah is really great too :)
Good job on nursing,aren't you proud that all his chub is thanks to you?!I always think that when I look at Ember.It's amazing that they can thrive just on breast milk :)

I hate mosquitoes too.:P We don't ever get any here.I always get eaten up when I go to my parents house though!I'm glad it cooled down just enough for you guys to be outside.Noah sounds so funny!I bet he & Dylan would just have a ball together being boys :D

I love the last picture to! That is so sweet! How did you get it taken?

That's funny about Noah. Haley gets to be a crank ball with no nap. I love when she takes naps. I'm going to be so depressed and sad when nap time will be over coming up shortly I'm sure. Does Noah still take a nap everyday normally?

katie - I've gotten to be a pro at taking pictures of myself over the past few years. I have the added bonus of being blessed with long monkey-like arms.

Noah takes a nap on days we don't have anything to do or really just if we can fit it in. He didn't take one yesterday or today, which just means he goes down at 8 instead of 9 or 10. He gets to be a loud crazy pain in the butt, but he's bearable :)

I love it too cute. Don't you just love when they run wild and haven't the slightest idea what they are doing. I love having a boy but it is non stop all day. He has to be busy just about every minute of the day. He is so easy to read too. Its like I know what the next dangerous idea he is going to try out!

Very bad day today

Image
I got a horrible phone call early this morning from someone I used to work with. A friend of mine, who was stationed in Iraq, was killed yesterday in her sleep when her trailer was hit. SGT Trista Moretti was an amazing person. She had an impact on so many lives in so many places. It's going to be tough for everyone (like me) who can't make it to Jersey to say goodbye. I've been crying off and on all damn day. It seems so unfair. I hate this war and don't agree with it, but I don't think she died in vain. She died for everyone else out there. They fight for each other, not a cause, not their government. That's what I miss about the Army. I miss my comrades. Trista was hilarious and beautiful and had this great Jersey accent. We used to play word games and gossip and eat lunch together every day. We would laugh all day long while we "worked" haha. I remember when she first got to the unit I told everyone some bitchy chick with an accent was in the...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

Image
As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...
