*** Life As We Know It ***: February 2014
http://seattle-jen.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It * *. Sunday, February 23, 2014. These funny little people of mine. I had to get something done for work tonight, so I asked the kids to go lie down. Autumn had fallen asleep earlier and was already in bed. I was almost done and came up to check on them. The best part about all of this is the fact that none of this is out of the ordinary. Try as I might, I seriously have to wonder what a normal bedtime routine looks like. Thursday, February 20, 2014. Thursday, February 6, 2014. Kwen Gri...

http://seattle-jen.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It * *. Saturday, December 13, 2014. New Years Resolution Time. First item of business: No more excuses. Time to blog. Autumn is a firecracker. She makes us laugh. She teases the kids endlessly. She is wise beyond her years. She is bigger than life and yet teeny tiny. She runs the house and gets her way and it isn't always nice. This is our life. Everyday.

*** Life As We Know It ***: July 2015

Life As We Know It * *. Sunday, July 12, 2015. This post is really hard for me to write, but I find the more I talk about it and share about it and hear myself say things out loud, the easier it is to find a space to move forward. 6 weeks went by and I didn't speak to my dad, and when we did, I called him. I have often wondered over the last year, if I hadn't called, would we have talked again, and if so, how long would it have been? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). In the service of your fellow beings.

Life As We Know It * *. Thursday, January 30, 2014. A Light Dusting–(This post was written in part in 2013 and in part today and yesterday). THIS IS A SCATTERED POST! 160; Homemade teacher gifts of lip balm and vanilla, complete with handmade cards by the kids that will now sit in little bags until January 6th. I also wish the district would know how excited I was that we completed. Owen made me mad. Last week and I lost all ability to parent nicely. He was mean to me and wouldn’t practi...Everyday is ...

Life As We Know It * *. Friday, July 18, 2014. Owen had practice for a parade he is in on Sunday night for karate. I did what I do best. Sit around and watch. I feel like I do two things now days, sit at lessons and vacuum fruit flies, luckily not at the same time! Thank heavens when I am at lessons, there are no fruit flies. That would drive me to my breaking point.). Here we are, passing the time. Photobombed by an arm! And we wake up tomorrow for gymnastics! Time to sit and watch some more! Thank heav...

Life As We Know It * *. Tuesday, June 10, 2014. That wasn't very nice! She was right. I looked at her and saw these little sad eyes and I picked her up and told her she was exactly right, it wasn't nice at all. I apologized and she nicely responded that it was ok and that we are friends. Sigh Who is mean and treats their friends like that? I have guilt now. It didn't help much when she started calling me Mudder and Greg Fodder all night. Oh guilt and stress and regret how I hate you. Tomorrow we try again.

Life As We Know It * *. Thursday, February 5, 2015. It has been a long tiring day filled with a bit of everything. Yelling, laughing, screaming, crying, playing, swimming, bathing, crafting, schooling, pianoing, and finally resting. As I snuggled Autumn to sleep I said, "you're my super star and I love you". Her little sleepy voice said back, "you're my mom and I love you". And then it was a good day. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). In the service of your fellow beings. Does the Tooth Fairy run late?

*** Life As We Know It ***: Grav
http://seattle-jen.blogspot.com/2015/01/grav.html
Life As We Know It * *. Sunday, January 11, 2015. My girls think the word grab is pronounced grav. I told Ivy the other day that it is grab not grav. She looked at me with the most curious look and then said "grav sounds so much better". I am lying on the floor while the girls take a bath and I hear over and over, "Grav that! Auttie, you grav it first and then I will." "Hurry Ivy, grav it.". We will try to introduce grab again later, they are too cute to care. Great little family-I love reading these!

Life As We Know It * *. Sunday, January 18, 2015. Football, cousins, yummy food, and a CRAZY win for the Seattle Seahawks made for a fabulous Sunday. As we were transplants up to Washington, we haven't always been a fan of our beloved Seahawks, but never fear. WE ARE FANS now! So to sum up the day:, the kids ate too little, the adults ate too much, we gave up hope and had it restored, we laughed a lot, we played a lot and can't wait to do it all again in 2 weeks. BRING ON THE SUPER BOWL! I am lying on th...

Life As We Know It * *. Wednesday, May 28, 2014. The day she rode her bike. Today was the day Ivy rode on two wheels. She started the other day and was doing great, a little wild, but if her dad got her started she could do the rest. Well, I can do it too and I have a lose tooth.". It is true, her tooth will come out any day but honestly that had nothing to do with anything, but it was all she had. She was devastated. If I were in her head, I would have heard it saying. Phew! That was a close one! 1 Yest...
