It's been a cleaning sort of day...thought it might be more efficient to clean Ruby with a load of laundry. "Ya right, Mom!"
Why does it seem there is always so much to do but so little time. I have all these little projects in my mind that I want to complete, but by the time the house gets cleaned, pantry stocked, and dinner made (and most days scrounged together), it is time to go to bed and do it all over again. And throw a night shift in the mix, and its all over! I've been thinking I need to get more organized. Ruby sleeps in a bit in the mornings...so most days I do too. Maybe this could be a more productive time for me? Ruby and I don't really have any sort of schedule...we just wake-up and see how the day goes. Maybe we should come up with one? All these thoughts ran through my head while I was blow-drying my hair, when they were interrupted by Ruby yelling, "mommy, mommy, mommy" from the other room. She needed me right then to sit next to her and play with her. And then I realized, it really doesn't matter what I get done in a day...it really only matters that I spend quality time with my little Ruby who won't be little for much longer.

I feel the same way Megan. I want to feel like I accomplish the things I feel I need to.....but really, come on, what is more important than teaching, loving, chilling and eating up every moment with these little creatures? It is the best!
Ruby is beautiful! I love her baldness. Esther finally had some hair come in recently. I miss her bald little noggin, but I am liking her curls.
She is so cute! Some days it is nice to get "things" done, others it is just nice to play with the kiddos and help them..make forts, play games, have a picnic...those are the things they'll remember.
there's a time and place for everything! your kids get bigger and you then realize how needy they were as toddlers, and what a hands-on job it was!! and you wonder why you were beating yourself up for not getting things done. enjoy the sleep! it's been fun reading and catching up on your life. you're a strong lady...good luck in the upcoming months:)
