My Little Josh Clones

I posted this one on Myspace, but I forgot to post it here. I'm not as skinny as I look I swear. I am sucking it in and I hadn't eaten yet. After I eat I look about 3 months pregnant ;) But, yes... I am proud of how I bounced back and I appreciate the compliments people left me on Myspace.

Noah and I found this cool bug. No idea what it is... maybe a cicada? He keps calling it a grasshopper and I would say "yeah it does kind of look like a grasshopper, but I think it's something else". I hate when I don't know the actual name of something. I love being Mommy-knows-all with my kids. I guess eventually I won't be, but until that time comes I want them to think I am a genius hahhaha. I think that's reasonable ;)

Here's a picture of Tristan sitting up. I believe he stayed that way for a whole second! Just enough time for me to snap a picture. He looks like a disgruntled old man hehehe. I just love those big fat baby jowls.

Noah got more dinosaurs and couldn't be happier. He bathes with them, takes them outside, makes them fly around the house, sleeps with them. Thanks Pam, Glenn, Eric & Haleigh! I also got a cute little Pooh outfit for Tristan from them. I love my family :)

Noah decided his trike was broken and needed fixed. His version of fixing something is just to stick all kinds of scraps of whatever into it and bang around. He was telling me all about how everything was broken and he had to fix it. He's been fixing everything else in the house too.


Look at these precious little baby paws!! I want him to be tiny for much longer than is reasonable :)

Heh... you said, "broken and needed fixed." I usually only hear that phrasing from people who grew up in Pittsburgh. Was your part of Ohio close enough to get some of that too?

Also, your little Josh Clones are adorable. =)

Eric- why yes I did! In fact, my brother lives there now. It's about 45 minutes away from where I grew up. My Dad was actually from Pennsyltucky. ;)

Yep people in Pittsburgh did use to say that!My manager use to say "Y'ins" all the time too.Meaning you guys...I think,haha.

It's funny how Noah likes to fix things.Ava will say "Oh no I ripped it"...or "Oh no,it boken"(broken)
She is more into helping me though then fixing things.She feels the need to help me do everything.It's cute really.I will be brushing my hair & she has to stand next to me & brush her hair too.I am always one step ahead and have a second brush on hand.It's funny how boys and girls are drawn to liking certain things like that.

I absolutely love that picture of Tristan.It gives you an idea of how he'll look once he's a bit older.They just change so much.I think once they start sitting up they look so different!I do think they both look so much like Josh!He must love that...and I'm sure it's nice for you to see him in them everyday :)

You look great in that 1st picture!You did bounce back quickly!For all of us other women it takes at least 6 months!!After having Ember it took me the exact same amount of time to lose my weight...it's funny to me how similar everything was with both of them & with me...if that made any sense.
I love your bug picture...I don't think I've ever seen one of those!

Darn you do look skinny! I sawt he picture and I was like UG! I hate her!!! haha. I'm sure you look great. You do seem to bounce back very easily. That is wonderful. It took me over a year to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight. It's hard when you never had to diet and stuff before..

I love Noah's imagination. It's shows in these pictures you post. He seems like such a happy little boy. Tristian is so cute. I that is so fun he was sitting up like that. I love the last one with his hands. Babies are so precious. Have you done a mold with his hands and Noah's hands? That would be really cute to show that difference when he was first born.

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...

Germany

Noah and I are having a great time out in Germany with Josh. The house we're sharing is amazing and the people are also amazing. The only thing we don't have is our own kitchen, but like I said, the people who live here (Josh's friends) are amazing so it's not even an issue. I've been cooking for everyone to try to thank them in some way. We haven't been to many places yet. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby who has a naptime and a husband who has a job. However!! We managed to make it out to Heidelberg to see the castle. It was awesome. the walk up to the castle mmmm castle Heidelberg down below Christmas is huge here. They've even got Christmas markets out in the parking lot in front of WalMart. We've been to Luisenplatz a few times in downtown Darmstadt to visit all the Christmas shops they have set up. It's like a Christmas flea market. Thus far all I've blown money on is candy... mmmm German candy is so delicious. It's...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

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...
