The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. Too Close to Call. Here are my two SweetPeas, right around 3 months. Looks like we got our formula down pat! Are we gonna have one of those families where everyone looks like a carbon copy of everyone else? You can definitely tell a difference in personality from these pictures, tho. Carson was way more mellow than Cora has turned out to be so far. Both good, just different.). Thoughts and Theories of a Housewife. Austin: I'm ...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. There are lots of crows in this city. We have a crow's nest outside our bedroom window. (The babies just hatched today, actually.) There are crows on the beaches. And last week after we moved in, a crow took up post on our trailer in the parking garage. I've seen the Hitchcock movie. I know what birds are capable of. Naturally, I JUMPED, ran back to the car, threw my door open and hopped in! Moments ago, I posted a story about...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. Happy Birthday, Rory! Last Sunday was my brother Rory's 25th birthday. (The white candles say "25".). Yes, he's 25. Much to my delight, Rory requested a German Chocolate cake. (So I could practice for my. Birthday cake next month! While preparing the frosting for the cake, I was relating the story about how I had ruined my own cake for my.20th? It was the cake pan I had placed on the. Next month will be better!

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. The Dog and the Eye. This actually happened several weeks ago, but I just found a picture of the damage. Seemed worth sharing. See the mischievious look in that kid's eye? It all happened when, one afternoon, my tightly wound Border Collie was playing Indoor Fetch (not encouraged) with my equally tightly wound 2 1/2 year old. For some reason, I thought it would be.what, funny? Somehow a good idea? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. Carson is playing soccer this year. He's in a 3-4 year olds league, run by the MBA Spouse Association. It is awesome. Carson is having the time of his life. He has new cleats (thanks, Destiny! That he LOVES and wants to wear everywhere. And on Wednesdays, when he plays, I can actually convince him to take an afternoon nap so he will have lots of energy for his game. Carson's usually pretty good at paying attention. But he ...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch: The Triumphant Arrival
http://twicefortnightly.blogspot.com/2012/05/triumphant-arrival.html
The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. THEN my Mother survived 2 weeks of babysitting our children while Austin and I went gallivanting around Ecuador (more on that later). And finally, we all survived the final day's drive out to Maryland. We spent a day with Austin's parents and a day house hunting, and since then we've crashed at his older brother's house deciding, applying, and getting approved for our own house in Towson. So we get to move in this week! With a...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. This is the story of how I ended up with nearly 200 cupcakes. I planned a cupcake party for my birthday, and Carson was more than happy to help me out with the preparation. He was even willing to help me clean the beaters when we were done mixing the batter. He placed all the cupcake papers in the pan for me and then watched eagerly as I poured the batter. But this was the first pan. Yes, I am pregnant, and you can actually te...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. My First 5K (from the archive). Another noteworthy event I neglected to write about was my first 5K. Yes, I ran a 5K race. Back in November, 2 months before Cora was due. Well, I didn't exactly run. At least not the whole way. Sorry, but I think I'm awesome. And even if I was. Dead last for the first 2/3 of the course, I still think I'm awesome. Falling behind- at a pace that, for you, seems fast. But that's what happened&...

The Twice Fortnightly Dispatch. I Love A Home Full of Music, Food, and Smiles. And Now, a Word.from Carson. After church one Sunday while Carson was still in Nursery, he came home and told me this story:. C: One time, at church, there was a burned up bush on top of a mountain. And there was a voice! It was Heavenly Father! Me: Who was he talking to? He had to climb up. He moved his hands in front of him to signify "climbing up."). Me: What did he say? C: Take off your shoes. Soldiers don't go pee-pee!
