Happy Haircut Day!

Well both the boys were looking mighty shaggy so I thought it'd be a good day to give them a haircut. Thunderstorms are perfect for occupying little eyes during a buzz-cut... just so everyone knows :) Noah went first as Tristan watched intently. I thought Tris would be scared for his turn, but he was all ready to go once Noah was done. He was downright excited, even. So... here are my clean-cut gentlemen (before and after). Tristan's hair is still so wispy so I don't cut it nearly as short... plus I love when it's all sticking up everywhere ;) Mommy is next to get a haircut.

Here is me yesterday. I am 33 weeks along. If I go as soon as I did with Noah I only have 3 weeks left! Tristan was only a week "early" and I think that's much more accurate. Still no name. We have enough picked out that hopefully we can just look at him and know "who" he is if we still haven't decided by his birthday. I can finally start washing baby clothes! :D I can't believe we're so close to having him. Seriously... I haven't even really thought about any changes that will have to be made. Honestly, though... what would? Noah and Tris are great sleepers, Noah is becoming even more independent and helps me SO MUCH throughout the day. I am tempted to keep him home for another year just for the extra help ;) A newborn is almost like still being pregnant for the first couple months haha... poop, cry, eat, sleep. Just hold 'em close and make sure they're happy. I don't require much sleep and I figured out a lot of breastfeeding tricks with Tristan since he was such a little piggy. I think the biggest challenge will be a jealous Tristan, but he'll get over it soon enough (we hope). I am not nervous about his arrival at all. I am ready for another baby and everything he can dish out :)

April promises to be a good month. Josh is working a 12hr shift today, but then he's home-free for all of April WOOHOO!!! We have a lot of appointments and random things to take care of before moving to Spain so it will be nice to have the time to get it all done. We're definitely going to squeeze in at least one fun family trip as well. I am dying to go back to the aquarium with my new camera. Our plan is to go with my parents when they come back up from Florida. Couple weeks!

I know its slim, but think you can make it back out there after Spain? I think I am going to move there after school. I will tell you details over the phone or something.

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...
