My Ordinary Miracles

   So Today, I (begrudgingly) decided to take a small break from posting until next week. As many of you already know, I will be going back to work tomorrow and I’ll have to be getting used to an entirely new schedule. (Thank you by the way to all who had loving words of encouragement! [...]

    I mean to do this post yesterday but it got a little hectic! Sorry!!
   Another favorite book of my daughter’s is I Like Myself by Karen Beaumont. It is an adorable book about a little girl who likes herself no matter what (even with warts, spikes and purple lips). I think it’s an awesome [...]

   So, today’s the last weekday I will have to myself until I get a vacation day. Monday, I will be going back to work. While my schedule on here is a bit ambitious (to blog every day) I am going to TRY to keep up with my posts. We’ll see how it goes. 
   My thoughts [...]

 
   So, I’m full of thoughts about my start next week (EEK! Only a couple more days!). And, I’m really feeling like the “new kid in school.” You know the one…the one that everyone stares at, the one everyone judges before they really get to know. Yeah, that’s me in a new building with a [...]

    So Ella decides she’s going  to climb into the pack-n-play, get comfortable with her brother and sister’s baby toy propped up by the Boppy and lay comfortably with a blanket. Umm…is she regressing? I would say, just a tad! 
   What’s surprising is that even though she is almost 3, she still fits in it! [...]

   Today on Two, Too Tuesday, here are my thoughts:

  
I am so grateful that Ella hasn’t had TOO many accidents with potty training! In the last few days, she has been doing so much better with getting to the potty on time since basically removing pull-ups (a.k.a. “diapers”) from the equation! I am so proud of [...]

    Today, after meeting with my prinicpal to set up my return for next week, I went to the  mall to much needed clothes. Not clothes for my toddler, not clothes for my twins, but clothes for me! And not maternity clothes either which was the last things I actually bought for myself several months [...]

   So, I know, I know…my twins are individuals and YES, I believe that there is no reason to compare them constantly, but sometimes there is such a remarkable difference, I am paused for a moment to reflect.

   Yesterday, at their 4 month check-up, Logan weighed in at 16 lbs., 3 oz. (in the 80th percentile) [...]

  
   One of my daughter’s faves (that she actually asks for at bed) is “Ten Apples Up On Top” by Dr. Seuss. It’s a really cute book about a tiger, lion and dog that try to out do eachother by counting apples on top of their heads while bears try to thwart their plan. The [...]

 
     OK, It’s that time of week again for Kailani’s Aloha Fridays (where we relax and get ready for the weekend and relax with posting just a question) and I decided to combine it with my Try, Buy Fridays with a twist! And I have a good question this week that I really need help [...]
