Bad Blogger

UGH! I've been terrible at blogging! It's been a while since I've posted and there have been lots of new things going on, but basically I just don't have the time to sit and type, and it's very rare that I have both of my hands available at any given time to to type.

Some quick little updates: Gabby has 4 more teeth, all on the top, all found at the same time, although we are still waiting for 2 of them to actually come out a bit more.

Yesterday we had a wonderful playdate and Gabby had her first experience of being in a pool and I am so glad to say she loved it. The girls did wonderful also, I thought they were going to be afraid of it being a 4 foot pool but they had a ball, Kailee had on swimmies and was letting go, and Emma felt perfectly safe enough to "swim" with her swim jacket on. It was a great afternoon.

We are moving in 6 days so of course that is where most of my time is going. PACKING!! I really can't stand it, and I'm looking forward to that part being behind us, I'm looking forward to the unpacking, but I am not looking forward to the "where should I put this" dilema. It took me a long time to get this house the way I wanted it and I am hoping that this is not the case again, but I'm sure it's going to be. There really isn't a deadline to have it all done, I'm not trying to be superwoman, nor am I trying to impress anyone, I want to do it right the first time, and my biggest goal is get rid of more stuff when I unpack, we just have way too much stuff.

My main goal is to make sure Emma & Kailee are the most comfortable and that their room is as homey as possible from the start, so that being said, when we move in on Saturday the first thing I will be working on is their room. We move on Saturday and then Lou works on Sunday so it's going to be a little difficult but I will make the best of it, and am determined to get it done, even though I know it may take a day or two.

We christened the twins last Sunday and had a great time! I love watching my girls enjoy themselves and interact with their family. It makes me so incredibly happy to watch them play with Nick and talk to Denise & Tony and snuggle up to Aunt Mary & Uncle Ralph, and joke around with Christina & Louie & Cousin Sister, and follow Alexandra, Lou Lou & Adrianna all around, they look up to them and it reminds me of when Michelle & I were younger. It's all so amazing and still after all these years of being a mom, it ovewhelms me at how they enjoy the simplest things. I wish I could remember that all the time.

Well it's time to feed my crew and start the packing for the day. The girls and I are head to NJ to clean and organize the boxes that are there already, the girls are going to be so excited when they find out that the TV is working in their new room today!

Lots of pictures to come in the next week or so!
