weekend whirlwind (a picture marathon)

Our weekend whirlwind included some really special blog-a-lish moments...



Like Trevy enjoying his very first popsicle!



It took a little work helping him figure out that it was easier to eat when holding the stick as opposed to the icy part!




But once he got the hang of it...




summer became a whole new experience for him!





If you ask me...



I could skip the icy pop and just eat the delicious little kiddos up instead!




Bristel learned how to swing all by herself!




which is totally great for her...




and ME!




And how adorable is she sporting the sun kissed face and the Look At Me Mommy smile!










And Toby...our little athlete...made the Tiverton All Star team again this year!



I love to see him sporting his uniform...and game face...



And he loves to see me sporting his team's ball cap...and glowing proud mommy face!





It felt like Friday had just settled on the horizon...


when suddenly Monday was glowing over the shore. The start of a new week. Filled to the brim with the busy-ness that is our life.


::sigh::


The good thing about busy...


it doesn't leave much time for melancholy mulling.


::smile::

The pictures are great!! Looks like they got the popsicles from the ice cream truck. Tell them that Bibi is coming in August and we will eat some together on the porch. Love the swing pictures! Tell Toby that I hope to see him play something when I am there. Are all the seasons done by then? Love and kisses all around, Bibi

PS I like busy too, so the thoughts and memories are not too strong.

I just love looking at pictures of your little ones. Is it me or have they all seemed to age overnight?? *sigh*

Love the pics of Trevy enjoying his popsicle with big sis. Love the pictures of Bristel swinging. Love the game-faced baseball player. Your children are beautiful!

Bibi...the kids are looking forward to hugging you!

Adesta...I KNOW! They have all matured a lot this year!

Sharon...I'm such a sucker for kiddie feet! My kids never wear shoes! We should totally live in FL. :)

Barbara...getting Trevy to hold his popsicle right was such a trip! He immediately grabbed it by the icee part flipped it upside down and start chewing the stick! Then started crying because his little hand was freezing! But once he got the hang of it...Cuteness! He ate another one yesterday - perfectly right the first time!

Kelly...awww thanks. Your kiddos are pretty darn cute too!

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.
