Some Very Random Thoughts

A couple months ago the Baskin Robbins right by our house reopened. LOVE IT! So does Dylan. He asks several times a week to go there after dinner. We used to go every time he asked! Sometimes we would even offer to take him even if he didn't ask. Yum. I would get Mint Chocolate Chip or World Class Chocolate. Seth always gets Pralines and Cream. Dylan...he picks by color, not taste!! Well, this week he asked and guess what...we took him but only Dylan had ice cream! That's right, Seth and I passed it up. Man, that was tough! This is SOOOO fake! Seth is NOT sleeping here! When Dylan was a baby this scene happened almost daily (but real sleeping going on by Seth). I have the pictures to prove it. But when you have 2, there isn't as much time to snuggle and take naps. Because when she's sleeping there is almost always something that can be done! Still, so cute though!

These are my new favorite breakfast item!! They are Thomas Bagel Thins. They are bagels, just thinner! I love them and they have fewer calories than regular bagels. I need to get some pizza sauce, pepperoni, and cheese to make pizza bagels on them..so good! This picture cracks me up. She looks bald. She doesn't have a lot of hair up front but she does have some! This was Saylor's first trip to the zoo. She wasn't thrilled. Dylan doesn't want to take her back until she gets bigger!! I guess he didn't enjoy the crying baby as he was trying to enjoy the animals! Poor guy.

Last week I wouldn't have thought twice about stopping and getting a large Dr. Pepper. I LOVE Dr. Pepper. Especially from Wendys. This week, I have had one. And it was a small. So proud! Come Monday though I will enjoy a large one from Sonic. It's my first day back to work and a super duper friend I work with is bringing me one. It's a little tradition we have, I took her one on her first day back from maternity leave. The tradition stops here though. No more babies for us!!
This is what happen to my table when I need to change out pictures in my frames that the great Ken Doll takes. He has now done 4 shoots for us and I love all the pictures. It is so hard to take down the old ones to put up the new ones. I keep a few up from each session and just add lots of new ones.

It cracks me up when Dylan sings this song. He keeps up with it pretty good. Not as good as daddy though! Not really what a 3 year old should sing, but oh well! This one isn't any better. But to hear Dylan yell "she thinks my tractors SEXAY" is the funniest thing ever!

We rode the train yesterday. So much fun. For Dylan that is! I am still kind of ticked that I have to pay $1.25 for my 7 week old to ride!!

And the last one...I hear people say all the time that having a girl and getting to dress her up must be so much fun. Yeah, fun for me. Not so much for her!!!
People also tell me that I now have the "perfect family", that I have a "million dollar family", that I must be so happy to have a girl and boy...well yes I am. I do think my family is perfect, we are more than a million dollar family, in my opnion we are a trillion dollar family, and I am more than happy...I am beyond thrilled. But, I would have felt just the same about my family if we would have been blessed with another boy. I LOVE my boy. I just can't believe some people think having all boys or all girls is anything less than perfect. Having the honor to be a mommy to any child is a true blessing.

Have a Happy Weekend! I am going to enjoy my babies before I head back to school Monday. Which I am actually excited about!! I love Dylan and Saylor more than anything in the world, but being a teacher by day is what I need to do...it is the best thing for our little family of 4!
