Okay, Christmas has come and gone and New Years has passed as well; I'M SICK OF WINTER WEATHER!!! After having a second baby, the boys and I could really use some fresh air, and I'm dying to lose my weight! Sam has hit the terrible twos now because I feel myself wanting to pull my hair out the past couple of days. Between making sure he is sitting on the couch and not standing on it, him trying to push the lamps of the side tables, being mean to the animals, and running (to close for my comfort) next to his brother while Isaac is having "tummy time" I am in need of a time out! I really look forward to 8:30 when Samuel heads to bed because Isaac is normally on his way to dream land as well....and finally....quiet. Ahhhh. I can enjoy a heaping ;-) bowl of ice cream in peace and watch TV or read my book. However, no matter how grumpy I might get by the time 8:30 rolls around, one of Sam's "Da Da shoe" phrases makes me smile. Naughty or nice I love my boys so much. Their cute little cheeks and precious eyes make up for everything.

I think Sam is trying to say, "look out mom for the roller coaster ride of a lifetime!" Good thing I'm a thriller.
