I need to get back into the swing. We’ve been out of town for the last two weekends. A series of events has made those trips VERY stressful! We are all ready to have a weekend at home, chilled out and having some nice family time. It is supposed to be hot and sunny, so I am seeing some swimming fun in our near future. Here are some quick updates from my absence:
- Zoey is starting to RUN. Well, “baby run” that is. In the last 24 hours, she has become WAY TOO CONFIDENT FOR HER OWN GOOD. It stresses this Mama out beyond belief. She is everywhere!
- Grandma taught Zoey to say “uh oh” over the weekend and she says it in the proper context now. It is adorable when she drops something, falls down or purposely throws something and then says “Uh oh!”.. Melts my heart!
- She mimics you when you sneeze by making a “shhppfffhggfffshhhh” sound from her mouth. It is adorable too. Did I mention that I think every single thing she does is adorable? Even pooping, yes!
- My right foot is acting up bad. It is tingly and achey. I’m guessing a pinched nerve in my leg or spine. Sucks! I need to see a doctor but I keep putting it off.
- Summer is here! It is consistently 90-95 degrees here every day. Yowza. My body is still trying to adjust to sweating every time I step a foot outside.
- Zoey LOVES red grapes. I am scared to DEATH of choking, so I cut each grape into TWELVTHS. No, I am not even kidding! I cut a grape in half and then cut each half into sixths. Yes, I am overly paranoid. So what! Grapes are on the top list of choking hazards for kids/babies. Don’t judge me!
Well, my little peanut should be waking from her nap soon. Better go get her lunch ready. After lunch I think we are gonna throw a suit on and go outside for some pool fun.

Andrew is 2 and a half and still TERRIBLE at taking bites of food. He much prefers small pieces, so I still cut up almost all of his food. He won’t eat grapes, but I think my mom just cuts them in half when she serves them.

Yick, I wish summer was over and it hasn’t even started yet! I hate sweating. I hate feeling hot and tired and red faced. YUCK. Zoey sounds adorable!

Zoey is going to keep you on the go, ma’am and you’re going to love how active she will become. When Ethan & Addison started running around, I absolutely freaked out, but came to love it as it was a good source of exercise for me. ;)
Hoping y’all stay cool and enjoy the summer weather!

Little kids are funny…they have so much energy to run and run and run! I wish I had that much energy.
