hint of fall (picture marathon)



It was SO lovely outside yesterday that I had the brilliant idea to go pack up & head to the best (ie. closest) park around!


Although...about halfway through the bundle & buckle routine I was ready to change my mind!


::smile::




Hey Mommy...can we have THIS Christmas tree?


Wow...those eyes...





Brothers keepers






Toby enjoying some much needed (and craved) alone time...





It was my goal to caputre as many Trevy smiles & eyes as I could














Bristel's chilly grin...



















Toby is becoming rather useful. I sent him to chase & retrieve Trevy about a thousand times!
Trevy's face cracks me up. He's ovbiously loving the Catch me if you Can game!





Ahhhh...
I've had some seriously cranky days lately. Mommy thing?
But somehow just hanging out with my kiddos...watching their little faces glow with fun...
it's really nice. And sometimes the crankies even melt away.














Bonus Pics...


This is the view...



from the top of our street...




where our new house lives! I'll post pics of our place once we're moved in & settled-ish.


We're set to close on the 18th!

How exciting about your new home...what a great view!!
There's something to be said for getting out of theh house and just "being" isn't there? We don't do it often enough....takes alot of effort....but once we're there it's so worth it...especially when the Littles are tired after all that fresh air!
Beautiful shots. Love all three of your babies smiles. They're full of light!

Wonderful pics! Looks like everyone enjoyed the time out in ths sunshine. And sounds like Mom enjoyed it just as much.

Was gonna take the girls out to play in the snow at the park up the street yesterday, but then the high winds kicked in...poor kids were so depressed. Nothing like some Noggin watching to cure those moods though!

Love the new view...can't wait to see the new house pictures!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

I was talking about you today

That's right. You. Sitting there glued. To the computer screen. Getting your Trevy fix. You who hasn't been able to tear your eyes away. The one who checks back here gobs of times a day. Hanging on every post. Especially the dripping with drama or funny posts. Because you need to either laugh or cry alternately. Just like me. And somewhere...sometime...somehow...over the course of these past couple years... ...you found yourself here. Reading about me. About my family. About my Trevy. And slowly you were drawn in. Until you couldn't help yourself. You were head over heels. Unashamedly addicted. Maybe we connected in a support forum. Perhaps we're old college friends. I know we have family following. Hi guys! Some teachers and therapists. Maybe even a medical professional or two. Perhaps our kids play ball together. We might be FaceBook friends. Or you could be a friend of a friend. Even a complete stranger. But to us... you each have a very special pla...

runaway

I tend to be a live out loud kinda girl. But sometimes... well...sometimes life is just so heavy. So intense. So overwhemling. That it brings out the recluse in me. Like lately. The thing is...I know it'll pass. It always does. And I'll learn something. Grow. Hopefully. Survive. Certainly. Because I have to. It's just right now. In this particular heavy moment. I would much rather run away to some tropical paradise and sip martinis until Jonathan calls to tell me Trevy's back at home. Happy. And seizure free. With a new head of curls covering the scar and bouncing around the house. I am a coward after all. I've never denied that. And I really don't want to live through this next month. Which is probably why my posts will be random. At best.
