Once Sasha got up this morning, she got to help Mommy a little in the kitchen. I made French Toast and Scrambled Eggs. Daddy made Sausage. Sasha started with an appetizer of cantaloupe, which she also rubbed on her toes! lol She actually got a glass plate for her own breakfast! She did pretty well with the plate until she was done eating. Daddy ( Read more... )

Tyler is becoming a little woman. She is trying to wear makeup now, but needs more practice. We got her some makeup, brushes, and a little bag for it all for her birthday. She also got my old phone. She was thrilled! Her old phone had NOTHING, just really no features at all. What she doesn't know yet is that her limits have been raised (possibly ( Read more... )

Sasha turns one tomorrow. At this time exactly 1 year ago, I was timing contractions, trying to decide if I was really, really in labor.Anyway, tomorrow my father will give Sasha chocolate for the first time.

Both my girls have birthdays next month (a couple days apart). When Tyler had her 1st Birthday, I took her for lunch at my mom's. We also took her to Joe's mom's to celebrate that evening. Then we had a huge party for Joe's dad's side of the family and my dad's side of the family, plus his mom I think. I am just not "feeling it" for Sasha. I mean ( Read more... )

Tyler and Sasha will both have birthdays next month! So... for reference, here are some of the things that interest them (read: gift ideas)

Tyler is turning 12 and is now very interested in vampire books (including Twilight stuff). She likes goth fashion, though she is not at all dark (emotionally speaking). So black / goth clothing / accessories ( Read more... )
