Time...or lack there of
Since being home full time with my kids I have been reflecting on time or the lack there of. It is amazing how taking care of two little ones can take up all of your time, free time, extra time, nap time, etc. I am so grateful to be with my kids and focus on them as much as possible, but I always thought that I would have time to do all the things I never got to do while I worked full time. I have this big list and it just doesn't seem like I will be able to get anywhere with crossing some of those things off. I find myself in a whole new world of balancing kids, cleaning, social, church, and me. Does anyone have an suggestions on how they feel like they get through the day, week, or month accomplishing at least something other than weekly laundry, doing dishes, picking up toys, playing with your kids, paying bills, etc.? This is all new to me and I'm open to any suggestions.

Olypmic two cents...
I guess I need to give my two cents on the Olypmics. Well, I have been watching at least every evening. It has been fun to watch and root for the American athletes. We love the gymnastics in our home, yeah for Nastia & Shawn! But we have been kind of disappointed with the new scoring and come on China those girls just aren't 16. Michael Phelps has amazed me and I have loved watching the swimming. I love those close races! Hand ball?!?!? What is this olympic sport, never heard of it. We love olypmics and look forward to watching each day.

Growing up too fast...
It is amazing how quickly your kids getting older. With Reese it really didn't seem that quick. Wyatt is getting so big now, he is over 16 pounds and is the sweetest little boy ever. He is sitting up on his own now and he broke his first tooth last week. He loves to use his voice and click his tongue. Vince and I say all the time that we will always be happy when Wyatt is around because he is always smiling!:) We love this little one and are enjoying watching him learn and grown even if it does seem to go by too quickly.

Happy Bday Vince...
Today was my wonderful loving husband's 32nd birthday. We decided to have a big bbq with a bunch of family friends. We had amazing food and great company. Everyone had a great time and Vince had an enjoyable birthday celebration. I just want the birthday boy to know that I am so grateful for him in my life and I'm very lucky. He is so helpfully with our children and he does a wonderful job of taking care of me and our kids. Happy Birthday Vince!
swimming lessons...
We decided that Reese needed to take swimming lessons since we've been here because she is so affraid of the water. At first it went really well and then the more she learned she got scared again. At the end of the two week class she was loving the pool and now talks about it all the time and can't wait to go back to the pool. We are so glad that she love the pool now, it is amazing how with some effort she has changed her view of swimming.
