Chillin'

I have now adopted the idea of staying at home all weekend and relaxing with my family. I used to run erranrds, go shopping and clean house all weekend... what was I thinking?? It's so much fun to just eat a yummy breakfast, stay in our PJ's all morning and do nothing but spend time with one another.

After finishing out movie, Kamryn decided to jump around on the bed and Owen found this hysterical! Usually, I don't allow jumping on beds, but I'm letting loose a little. Here's a little clip...

Warning: Please forgive the messy hair, no makeup and PJ Mommy in this clip! I was relaxin with my family!

Dinner Hour

Dinner tine is always the busiest time of the day!

Kamryn comes home from school, Owen wants ALL of his sister's attention, and I am getting ready to start dinner.
Kamryn and I gave Owen a sippy cup of ice water so he'd stop drinking ours and getting soaked. Since he won't suck, we had to remove the stopper in the sippy cup and he just shook water ALL over the place instead.

Then Kamryn decided she was having her "FAVORITE" dinner tonight... Refried Beans! She'll eat em' right out of the can! Hey... it's protein, carbs and fat all in one little can. At least we don't have to sleep with her!! ;)
With Kamryn full of beans, Owen full of yucky formula, Daddy went to a work outing tonight... looks like I am OFF work tonight... no cooking.. which means no dishes...and no sweeping up the crumbs!!

Quiet Days

I'm the type of girl that has always been ON THE GO! I've always had work, school, dance or other things that keep me so busy I don't have time to sit down and relax. Since I quit working... things have changed! Kamryn is off to school, Carson is at work, Owen is in dreamland and I'm sitting in the office at the computer thinking I really should be doing SOMETHING more productive with my day... but what??? I know that others would embrace this free time to read, exercise, watch tv ... but I can't help but feel guilty if I indulge in my own free time!! What is wrong with me??? I know these quiet days won't last forever so I just need to enjoy them while I've got them!

Even when Kamryn is home from school, she sits down on the sofa with Owen in her lap to watch cartoons while I cook dinner. I don't have to ask her to do her homework, as she just gets it done. I couldn't have asked for more calm, relaxed and sweet natured babes!
