Things I Wish I Could Un-see!

May 6

File this under, "Things I wish I could un-see": Today was the first time (that I know of) that one of my kids ate their own poop. Oh MiMo. The girls were mortified as well.

Woohoo, parenthood.

Planting Time!

April 27

We didn't plant or mulch the past two years (I believe). So we were LONNNNGGGG over due. We waited to due the bulk of the work while MiMo was sleeping. The girls helped me earlier in the day to purchase some flowers. They rock. Moses came and inspected our work after he woke up.

Grandma and Grandpa Visit in April

April (the week before Easter)

Grandma and Grandpa Parry came to visit. We had lots of plans. But, unfortunately, I got sick with the flu - and then passed it to everyone else. It was a pretty miserable week. Grandma was the only one who escaped unscathed (thank goodness since she would have suffered the worst).

Here are some pics from before we were all bed ridden...

Auntie Lulu, Uncle Nick and Baby Ava (aka bun in the oven)

April 12

Enjoyed a visit from my wonderful and dear college friend, Lulu, who was visiting from Virginia. And looking very preggers! :-) It was so nice catching up with her and Nick. And Nick brought some fabulous home brews. We BBQ'd and enjoyed the afternoon together. I was able to pass on the "Wells pump" that was handed from Bo to me, and now, to Lulu. Can't wait to meet the little one when she decides to enter the world!!

This is the infamous baby bump door (I took all my bump photos here)
Nice to have one of Lulu's bump!!

Look at that cute mama!

Grace, me, Lulu, Frances, and Nick

Look Ma! Twins!

April 6

I remind the girls that they are twins, but they never really understood what that meant before. Today was the first time I had one of them acknowledge another set of twins - unprompted. Frances pointed at a set of twin boys and said, "Look mommy, twins! Like me and Grace!" Awesome!

Park and Farm - Spring has Arrived?

Weekend of April 1st at the park and opening weekend for Clark's Elioak Farm! Is it really Spring?!?!?!

MiMo's First Pizza!

March 20th

MiMo had his first pizza EVER. It was gluten and milk free, of course. He loved it!


MiMo's First Selfie!

March 3rd.

The ubiquitous "duck face":


Where Do Markers Go?

This is from March 1st (sorry I'm just catching up now on past posts).

Mommy: Grace, where do markers go?
Grace: In my nose.

Yep, bright pink marker up both nostrils. And I'm pretty sure MiMo sucked on the marker right afterwords. Delish!
