MIA

 

This is from week 24 but I think it depicts my absense the past few months.  As the days get warmer and longer, we seem to find ourselves busy, busy.  Since the girls are in year round school, we are still in full on school mode, at least for a few more weeks.  My office work has been crazy, hectic the past few months so when I get home at the end of the day I'm pooped but there is still dinner, homework, baths, and housework left to do.  At the end of the month we're looking to slow the pace down a bit and head to the beach for a little fun and relaxation.  We CAN'T wait!!
Until then we'll spend our free time enjoying the pool at Tootsie and Pop's house!

Week 14

They are so cute and so precious but so exhausting.  Love them dearly and try to treaure all the moments, good and bad, but thank you Lord for school tomorrow!!

Week 13 - Sisterhood

These two spunky little girls just don't seem to get tired of one another!  They spent several days on a spring break adventure to Little Rock with their grandparents while me and my boys spent some time at home.  In my experience, when I share long car rides, meals, awake time, asleep time and every other time in between with someone, anyone, the one(s) I love, etc., I need some me alone time!  I am now 7 years into this twin thing...it was around the end of March in 2005 when I found out I was pregnant and by April we were adjusting to the news of two hearbeats!  Even after all that time, I still don't fully comprehend the connection our girls, as twins, have.  I'd say 99.9% of the time, they completely love being around one another.  It's heartwarming while confounding at the same time to me!  Even if I never "get it", they've got it and I pray they maintain it for their entire lives!

Catching Up! Week 10, 11, 12

Week 10:
On a beautiful Sunday morning in New Orleans, I ran in my 2nd 1/2 marathon with Candace, her sister, her brother, her sister and law and Korrie.  It was a great day and fun way to spend a weekend with a really great group of people.  Per CDC, Lisbon in 2013!

Week 11:
We had some really great Spring weather here in Shreveport prior to the first day of spring.  Trees have been budding and flowers have been blooming since early March.  I caught these beauties bursting forth outside of my office building.  I love the spring season...rebirth, renewal!

Week 12:
Sam celebrated St. Patrick's day as a pirate.  That's totally Irish right?!  Arrrr...
