Mom Life

Berkley hasn't been so happy this week (not enough sleep), but he has said a lot of funny things in his delirium, making me laugh, and making him angrier. Mike told him that he had to eat his sandwich before he could have more cheetos yesterday, and Berkley interupted yelling, "NO, NO, NO, NO, A BUNCH OF NOOOOOOOOOOS!" He is also starting to say really big words that he doesn't know the meaning to in his everyday sentences (another product of sleep deprivation, I think), that make me laugh inside - and not out loud - as not to disturb his fragile state. I think his crying and whining this week has actually entertained Maddox, because Maddox has been great!

Here's a happy picture of the grumpy man this week because I couldn't find a mad picture.

Great-Gran Came to Visit!!!

Does it get better than this??? We love you SO much Great-Gran! We loved your visit!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

The leprechaun came to our house late last night, left mischief throughout the house, kissed the kids with shamrocks, left golden coins and balloons and treats and things, and colored the milk in the fridge green... and for some reason I had to take a nap today! Happy St. Patty's Day.

"The Aristocats Kids" Play

Savanna was in a really cute play that showed on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. She had a blast doing it and did a great job. Thanks to everyone who came to watch her! It made her feel so good to have so many people come. Here are some of the pictures. She was Roquefort, the mouse who saves the Aristocats from the evil butler.


She had a really cute solo that she sang in her squeaky mouse voice.

Puppy Love

New Puppy

So I don't know what in the heck I was thinking, but I had a moment of weakness/stupidity and gave into the cutest puppy in the world. We can't agree on a name, and worse, he won't stop pottying on the carpet. Since we got him on Saturday, I think he's got in his litter box three times. I am giving him one month, and if he has shown no potty progress, I am going to have to give him the boot. If anyone has any suggestions on litter training him, I will gladly listen, as I haven't got a clue. I feel like he needs more attention than a baby. On the up side, the kids adore him, he falls asleep in Savanna's bed every night, Maddox squeals and chases him every time he catches a glimpse of him, and Berkley has finally decided he just might not be scared of ALL dogs. Mike loves him as much as the kids do, so I am praying that he gets easier, and we can keep him forever!
