A glimpse of the last couple months. I am sorry I have been gone folks. It has not been an easy month or so. You see I'm pregnant (ya!) and this first trimester has been one big beast. Mix that in with a couple bouts with the stomach flu and you have one lousy month. I hope I am almost in the clear and really hoping spring brings good health too! Here's to hoping, right?<br />

I can't get enough of these too. They are little buddies now and it is so fun to watch the way they share space in our home. The way Addie can sense when Dexter is about to do something bad or swipe(Dora anyone?) something of hers, is quite impressive. Yet, at other moments she is so quick to care for him and cheer him up! Dexter thinks Addie is just about as good as it gets. He is anxious for her to wake up and doesn't seem to mind how she dictates most of what he plays with. They are quite the pair!</div>

We just celebrated Addie's 3rd birthday. I can't believe we have a 3 year old! How did that happen? We are so blessed by our caring, spunky, fun loving girl. She is truly a gift from God! Happy Birthday sweet Adeline!</div>

I am blessed, but it is so easy to loose sight of that. 24/7 I spend with this little babes and my world is completely involved in their needs and wants. It is thick with highs and lows. They can be experiencing giggles with the cousins one moment and then feeling sick as a dog the next moment. They can be playing with our new wagon and then slip and get a huge goose egg. I think it is hard to stay focused in those moments. It is easy to get swept up in the extremes of emotions these little ones go through and as a stay at home mom, it is very hard work to stay balanced through it all.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Motherhood has shown me such joy and such sadness. Surprisingly though, I am not as emotional as I use to be. I am one of four sisters and I was always coined the "worrier" for the family. I could cry at the drop of a hat and always carried such anxiety and worry on my shoulders. Don't get me wrong, I still am great </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
at worrying about my babies and having a good cry fest once and awhile, but overall I feel motherhood as trained me to be more balanced. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
My days are long and often lacking in adult interaction. I know that if I let myself ride the roller coaster of emotions that my kids go through, I will not make it through the day. I find myself striving to create a calm in our lives. To breathe in an out and not let all those crazy moments get the best of me. I know the power I have in these children's lives and I don't take that lightly. The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down (Prov 14:1). It is a daily choice and I don't always choose it daily, but that's life, right? Oh, that we would continue to crave growth and change!</div>

We got a sweet hour with Alex before he left on a work trip.<br />
Dex ate his whole bowl of oatmeal, his banana, and half of my oatmeal.<br />
Addie actually ate cereal instead of her normal request, peanut butter toast.<br />
Alex stuck to peanut butter toast. They both can't live with out it.<br />
Dex headed back to bed to sneak in a quick nap before heading out.<br />
I managed to shower, but left the house with wet hair. Again.<br />
Addie got in some Diego TV while I showered.<br />
Addie then gave me a mini lesson on Humpback whales. Good ole Diego the animal rescuer.<br />
Experienced some great fellowship at church.<br />
Addie made sure to look out for her favorite Long Tree (aka Willow) to and from church.<br />
Gobbled up leftovers after we made it home.<br />
Waited for Addie & Dex to fall asleep, then dashed downstairs to get in a run.<br />
Promptly dashed back upstairs after my run, as I heard a chipmunk get stuck in our dryer vent.<br />
Put a hold request at the library for a new book. Left to Tell by Immaculee Ilibagiza.<br />
Packed some more for a visit to my Mom's this weekend.<br />
Struggled all day to get a bottle of Kombucha open. Finally got it open at 3 o'clock.<br />
Dex pulled ever single puzzle down off the shelf. Mess.<br />
Addie put all the puzzles back together. Teamwork.<br />
We finished our second gallon of whole milk this week. That's another love our kids get from their father.<br />
Addie put a pair of socks over her tights. Time to get some bigger slipper socks.<br />
Dex walked all over the house with his new little walker wagon.<br />
Addie put about 10 things on Dexter's head today. Only one of which was actually a hat.<br />
Wrapped cousin Beano's birthday presents, while playing with stamps.<br />
Read My Lucky Day to Addie for about the 100th time.<br />
Filled Alex in on our day over the phone.<br />
Popped some popcorn.<br />
Watched Survivor & Modern family without Alex. Not half as good without him to watch with me.<br />
Finished a bid for a new bride.<br />
Finished knitting a squishy ball for a dear friend of mine. So excited she is going to be a mom super soon!<br />
Showered and this time I actually dried my hair.<br />
<br />
I want to capture these moments. My days are long, but these years are going fast. Sweet little Dexter is one and my baby girl will be three in November. Time is escaping us. Oh how I love my little ones and I want to be present for each and every moment.<br />
<br />

Buddy Boy is on the move. Two weeks ago you could leave him in the middle of the living room, dash to the kitchen to refresh your cup of coffee (I won't address how many times I do that), and come back to find him in the same spot. Long gone are those days! Dexter is crawling all over the place and also pulling himself up on anything he can grab onto. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This new development makes me sad for two reasons.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. So much more work! He gets into everything and manages to put every speck of anything in his mouth. I have to be right by his side making sure he doesn't choke on something or fall over and hit his head.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Now that Dexter is constantly on the go, it makes me realize just how fast he is growing up! He is no longer my cuddly baby, but a kiddo on the go! I am really in denial about the fact that he turns one in a month!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have about a million projects going on right now. Hopefully, I can not only get some of them completed, but also post about them!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
PS Anyone else LOVING this cooler weather?! I sure am.</div>

<div>
August has been fun...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These two are really starting to play together. Dexter has much more patience for his sister, than Addie does for him. He continues to scoot around backwards and lunge forwards, but no crawling yet!</div>

I can barely contain my excitement! Yes folks, my new iphone (early birthday gift from the Hubs) arrived on my doorstep yesterday!! I have always been a bit behind on the phone updates. I remember back in college begging my mom to get a cell phone because I was the only one (in my opinion) that didn't have one. Slowly I went from flip phone, to slide phone, and finally to a text phone. I am super excited to finally have a smart phone. I am slowly making an apps list and eyeing some gorgeous cases (how do you just choose one?). </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Do you have any favorite apps? or case? Also, any Words With Friends players out there??</div>

I lost my Dad at the age of 9. He was everything a kid could ask for. He loved us dearly and made life FUN. From building the biggest backyard of fun, to forts in the living room, to covert trips to get ice cream in his paint trailer. He created this great adventure for me and my sisters. His great faith and love for his family was evident to all. Losing him left a big gap in our lives.<br />
<br />
Thankfully, I had the best Grandpa in the world. Seriously. He stepped up in so many ways to help try and patch up that hole in our lives. He was so supportive of my Mom and so loving to us girls. I loved getting pie with him at Baker's Square, seeing him in the stands at EVERY summer softball game of mine, and cheering on the the Illini (or scolding them for a poor game). He was a man of such strong faith and devotion, while having the greatest sense of humor ever. I miss my Grandpa dearly.<br />
<br />
Father's Day took on a whole new light when Adeline entered our life. Before my eyes, I saw my husband turn into a Father. It was one of my favorite memories of that day. Seeing Alex in awe over this little life that forever changed our lives. Immediately he changed into this amazing Dad. His love for Addie and Dexter makes my heart so full. Alex embodies so much of what I loved about my Dad and Grandpa. His strong faith, his compassion, his jokes, his love of adventure, and his love for us make him one sweet Dada.<br />
<br />
Father's Day has new life these days. While I still miss the men who taught be about what a great father meant, I know that they would be so happy to see Alex leading our family with the same love and devotion.<br />

This is the second year of home made jam. I love it. Last year I gave most of it away, thinking we wouldn't use all of it. Boy was I wrong! We flew through those jars by fall! So this year, these jars will be staying put. Sorry for those who thought they might get another jar this year!<br />
<br />
Last year my buddy showed me her canning secrets and lent me her tools. I borrowed her tools again this year. I am thinking I should probably get some of my own tools and maybe my canning will branch out from just strawberry jam? It's quite the process (and took all of my 3 hours at night), but it is well worth it to have home made jam all year long!<br />

I picked up this Maxi dress two years ago from Old Navy. I wasn't thrilled with the top, but it was $10, so I got it anyway. I've only talked myself into wearing it a few times because it fits so poorly up top. It is super low cut and I find myself either wearing a tank top under it or a cardigan over it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So naturally when I pinned <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/226728162460813826/">this</a>, it didn't take long to cut this sucker up!! Now, I am not a super star when it comes to the sewing machine, but I thought I'd give shirring a try. I used this great <a href="http://www.makeit-loveit.com/2011/11/sewing-tip-shirringsmocking-with-elastic-thread.html">tutorial</a>. Try it folks. You won't regret it. I literally finished this project while the third (yes, third) cable guy was trying to figure out why our Internet has been on the fritz lately. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

What will my next shirring project be? Perhaps a skirt for Addie?</div>
