It’s been so long since I’ve done this…I don’t even want to
look back to see my last “fab” post.
Grrr!!! I suppose there’s no time
like the present to try to kick-start myself again. So here ‘goes!
1)
After what seems to be running full speed these
last few weeks, we took the entire day off on Sunday for some centered family
time. Hubby and I got up and dressed
before the girls, and we hurried their clothes on when they got up at 6:30. A couple of minutes after 7am, we were in the
car, headed to Nashville. We drove to
the Pancake Pantry, a storied establishment, and waited in line (not too long)
for our much-anticipated pancakes. After
eating way too much, we went to the zoo.
It had been way too long since we saw all our animal friends, and it was
blissful to walk around in the cool sunshine.
After the zoo, we had a yummy lunch, and we rounded out the day with
some shopping. The day was exactly what
we needed…an escape from work and home…and a focus on family and fun. Love-love-love!!!

On Monday, Baby A was so excited to go shopping
for her new bead to celebrate losing her second tooth. She and B waited like such big kids in the
jewelry store, and A loved gazing at her new bead the rest of the day. After the jewelry store, we went to the
grocery store. It was RAINING…HARD!...when
we came out. Thank goodness we had our
hooded jackets, and we made a run for it.
Although it was kinda icky, it was also kinda fun to be splashing
towards the car. To the girls, it was
one big adventure!

The girls got new sunglasses as their Valentine’s
Day treat. They L-O-V-E them, and they
are so stinkin’ cute! I can’t get enough
of seeing them in their cool new shades.

On Thursday after I picked the girls up from
school, I needed to run by the grocery store for a couple of items. I knew they wouldn’t be overjoyed at that
prospect, so I told them what I knew would pep them up…”We’re going to get some
asparagus!” They squealed with
delight. We haven’t had asparagus in
ages now, because it’s been so high, but one grocery store had it on sale this
week. It cracks me up sometimes to see
what excites my babies.
5)
I told the girls a couple of times how I ate
peanut butter and banana sandwiches almost every day when I was pregnant with
them. They’ve been wanting to try one
for themselves, so I made them one on Friday.
“Oh, my body recognizes this!” Baby A proclaimed. Hahaha!
Needless to say, the sandwiches were a hit! And this mama enjoyed them, too, this time
alongside her baby girls.
I love the little things...because in the end, you recognize they are the big things. :) :)

I forgot about this series!
Where's Amber these days?
Asparagus!!! Never made it before. If it makes the little ladies excited I should give it a try.
Hmmmm I ate a lot of peanut butter and banana sandwiches too! Loved it then and still love it now. My family thinks it's a weird combo
My A loooooves asparagus - she would get totally excited about the prospect too
