I Should Be Cleaning

Emma and Cate are napping! So why am I not up scrubbing floors, doing laundry, dusting, or some other household chore? Who knows. Maybe it’s because my head hurts and I’m lazy.

My wedding rings seemed like a silly response when she was pointing to the [...]

Morning

It’s raining today and the temperature has dropped. The weatherman is calling for floods in the area. So I’m staying here.
Emma woke up five minutes ago and is now watching Noggin and eating breakfast. The weekend flew by. However, I actually get more done Monday through Friday when Billy isn’t here.

So far she has peed through two training panties and one pull up. Ugh!!!

How Pathetic

I stole this from someone’s blog.

And the states between Virginia and New Jersey I only visited as a kid traveling through. Never been there as an adult.
So sad. . . I’m 31!!! And that’s all I’ve seen of our country?

Nonsense & Pictures

I can’t believe it but Cate is STILL sleeping and it’s after 9 a.m. I had to pump and I got six ounces in no time. I thought I heard her wake up so I stopped or I probably could have gotten more.
Emma was staring at me while I pumped. It was a little freaky. [...]
