A bit of craziness..

Today was crazy.

I was up by 5:45 am to feed the baby. Alarm went off at 6:00 am. Fed both kids, and on the exercise bike by 7:30 am. Off to the bread shop. DMV. Grocery store. Home to put away groceries. Doctor's appointment for Eric. Home to teach piano. Make dinner for friend who had a baby. Take dinner. Go to pharmacy. Pick up prescription. Home to make dinner. Eat dinner. Kids to bed. Put in Scentsy order. And finally...

...my favorite part of the day...

GO TO BED.

If you see me tomorrow...this is what I WISH I could be doing...

Good. NIGHT!

Cookie Monster

Eric will eat just about anything we give him. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not, but we ventured out on a limb last sunday and gave him an oreo cookie. His first cookie ever. That is a milestone to remember, right?

Needless to say, he loved it.

And I love his messy face.

And I love Oreos.

But I love him more.

She reads....

Emily is a smart little cookie. She loves books. She also likes to play around on www.starfall.com. (awesome for teaching kids letters and their sounds!). As such, she can read and has been for about 6 months or so. And by read, I mean she can sound out all of the letters and figure out 3-4 letter words. Tonight she told me she wanted to read me the book "Are You My Mother?" She sounds out each word and I help her when the letter sound is different than the normal rule (i.e. "said" is not s a ih d). So many exceptions to the "rule" in our language. Scott came home while we were reading and took these pictures. It was a precious moment:
