Our Corner of the World

The "Master" Bedroom! (Yes, that is Grayson in the bassinet by the bed...a temporary fixture!)
 The Hallway...
 The Bathroom...Hard to tell, but it is a lovely shade of purple, and I love all the bright colors we were able to incorporate. I'm really pleased with how this room turned out.
 Grayson's room...My uber comfy chair and favorite window of the house. It has the best view, which is great for all the time Baby Gray and I spend in there looking out at the world!
 The changing area
 The crib and the beautiful Disney prints Aunt Jenna sent us, that literally make the room!




 Brooklyn's Sanctuary. I am so pleased with how this room turned out as well!


 Does she have enough stuffed animals? I don't think so!!

All in all, we are quite comfy in our little corner of the world!

    I am so glad you are all comfortable! Why didn't you show your "living" area? It's pretty nice too...watch tv/play video games/escape the craziness of Dad and Mom!

In Which We Are Three Weeks In

Wow. Three weeks old. Hard to believe. After my fluid pockets were drained, I felt a thousand times better and I sort of forgot exactly how bruised and battered my body still is. I may be feeling better, but I still hurt and need to take it easy. I actually think I'm doing pretty good finding that balance between resting and getting things done. Today I'm getting laundry done (with much help from mom and Ray!). My greatest challenge right now is eating (big surprise). I am making good choices, but I don't think I'm eating enough, considering that I am nursing and rebuilding and healing abdominal muscles. So that's me. The kids are doing well. I have to remember that they are still adjusting too. Grayson had a short night terror last night. I sat downstairs holding the monitor and cried right along with him. Brooklyn is sleeping with my mom while dad is out of town. I know we're going to pay for that later! Madi has decided she would prefer to sleep in someon...

In Which I See Myself in Brooklyn

Last Monday night I had to do a terrible thing to Brooklyn.  It's so terrible, both Brooklyn and I avoid it for as long as we possibly can. I had to cut her finger and toe nails.  I don't like cutting nails ever, under any circumstances, but Brooklyn loathes it entirely! She is terrified that I'm going to cut her finger off or hurt somehow. She used to have to be held down so she couldn't jerk away. Now that she's older she has a bit more self-control, but she still whimpers and whines throughout the whole procedure. Miserable!   I have never cut her too deep. I am extremely careful and gentle with her. She has never experienced even the slightest pain with my behind the clippers. I finally said to her one day, "Brooklyn, I have never hurt you! Don't you trust me?"  She said, crying, "No!" Well, last night, she managed to keep her hands still but talked the entire time about how she was nervous and kept squinting her eyes, just in ca...

In Which I Am Inspired

Two things really stand out to me at the end of this jam packed weekend.  First, my mom came into town to watch my kiddos while I attended a two day homeschool convention.  That act alone is not what inspires me, though I am so grateful for her willingness to help when I need her!  In the days leading up to the convention, she took us to the park to walk. We walked and rode bikes around Stoner and Overlook parks every day, sometimes twice! (we are all exhausted!)  When it comes to exercise, I have a million and one reasons not to do it. But walking around with my mom this last week I realized that it doesn't have to be complicated. I don't have to make any big commitments, or walk the track in a certain time frame, or wait for perfect weather conditions.  I just need to get out and move.  I DO need to remember to bring a first aid kit and to SHUT the doors of my car...but that's another set of issues all together. The second thing that inspired me was s...
