Blogging...another thing to fit into my crazy schedule

Man, I miss having all the free time I had before to just sit around and update my blog and read all my favorite blogs of family and friends. Thank goodness for Google Reader that helps me keep on top of who updates their blogs, but I still find it hard to catch more than 10 minutes to try to read them all. Anyway, I apologize for my lack of comments on your blogs lately...I do care and I do read them, but there isn't time yet to comment on them. I will do better, I promise!

Anyway, on to the pictures, (which I'm sure is the real reason you have visited my blog today)...you want to see the baby right!

So Amelia is 1 month old already...holy canolli, where does the time go. Anyway, I've already trained her to pose for the camera...just look at those lips...Work it girl!


See the examples she has:

My two sweet little girls...I'm so lucky!


I've been really good at taking the kids to the pool....4 times this week to be exact! We've had such unusually beautiful and cool weather, that I had no excuses to take my kids out.




Amelia even enjoys hanging out by the pool in her stroller:


It makes me laugh sometimes when babies start to cross their eyes a bit: Perhaps all the camera flashes are to blame..."Mom, all I see are bright stars and flashes."



Hanging out with Daddy: you would not believe how much Bella has John wrapped around her little finger. Every Saturday and Sunday morning, if John and I are cuddling in bed, she will sit on my face and push us apart with her feet, and then will practically take my place and cuddle with Daddy.

If there is something I have said NO to that she has asked for, she will immediately go over to Daddy and in the sweetest voice (and one time she even stroked his cheek) and will ask him for what she wants....she always gets her way!

I told him hands off of this one then. I supervise their "bonding" time to make sure that this one is mommy's girl! :)

This is one of the first smiles she has been giving us this week and I barely caught it on camera. Don't worry about her eye, she has a clogged tear duct...do you call it clogged when it actually is always tearing up and producing "eye boogies?"


Anyway, I will do better at taking pictures and updating my blog more. Happy Reading!
