Wednesday Play Group

A bunch of us military mommies from cafemom.com meet up every Wednesday on the base playground to let our kids play their little hearts out. This was the first time I was able ot make it to the "official" play group. Tristan slept the entire time until right before we left. I nursed him briefly and he went back to sleep before we came home. He's still asleep now! I think it's because he was awake all morning eating. I don't mind if it means a longer nap! It did make eating breakfast really difficult for me, though. I didn't get to eat until around 10:30, even though we'd been up since 6am. Noah woke up because he had to go potty and just didn't fall back asleep. He should nap really well today. Tris is wearing my favorite outfit. It was my favorite for Noah too :) It's just sooooo cute! Babies wearing pants just kills me every time.

So... the playgroup was great. My friend Jamie showed up with her 2yr old, Sienna and 4mo old Jesse. She also brought some cute outfits for Tristan and size 1 diapers. YAY! Sienna and Noah are "dating", we decided haha. They chased each other around the entire time, pushed each other down, helped each other back up. They were in perpetual motion so I didn't get too many good shots. They're quite a cute couple! All the other kids were around 1yr old or so. Noah was a giant compared to them. They all got along really well and all the moms got along well too. I plan to show up every Wednesday that I can. Afterwards we usually go over to Starbucks for "Mom" time, but I wasn't able to go. Maybe in a few months. It was so nice to get out of the house and Noah was SO happy to finally be allowed to run around and get loud and crazy.

And now it's time for me to snack and nap :)

That's so nice for Noah to be able to ru around with some other kids,even if they are a bit younger!Sienna is too cute!
I love Tristans's little outfit & his wild dark head of hair!!

It's so healthy for you to be getting out like this.I know I feel so much better when I get out of the house & talk to other Mom's ,especially ones in my predicament!!

I really have to make an effort to eat.When I don't my milk suffers noticeably,it's strange.Then I have to play catch up & be a pig.Like today,haha.Some days I really don't get to eat until lunch time,it's so bad for my milk!I usually end up eating breakfast standing up in the kitchen :P...I guess it's all about time management!I'm glad you had a good day :D

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...

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...

Project 365: Jan 16 - 20

Tuesday, January 16th - more snow and a cotton candy sunset. It wasn't much, but the ice beneath and timing of the snow itself  meant a snow day for the kids! Now that they're teenagers, that precious time is spent catching up on sleep, which makes working from home pretty easy for me. Wednesday, January 17th - the morning light changes throughout the year as the earth moves around the sun. In winter, it peeks in through my living room window and spotlights the entertainment center in warm light.  Thursday, January 18th - Braved the inch of ice on the ground to attend a legislative reception in Annapolis with my coworkers/friends. We spent the day networking, laughing, and planning to save our little section of the Chesapeake Bay watershed here in Southern Maryland. Friday, January 19th - Jug Bay snow day!!! The weather report called for snow to begin falling as school was supposed to just be getting started, so they announced cl...
