I had another long post written but I'm putting that on hold for a bit. Sometimes it seems holiday weekends are more stressful in a sense but moving on........... hit up the rarely ever used Ramblings blog for a run-down (and again if you need an invite let me know but if I know you IRL :P sorry, no dice!)
So hubby still isn't feeling better and while I feel badly and wish that wasn't the case, I did get on him a bit about having to "play" hurt and the world can't come to a halt. Not sure how well that went over but he's been in a better mood for the most part. And even feeling ick he got the girls up and they all ran out to bring back breakfast Sunday so I can't complain.
On to the girls -
First off, do they ever love to sleep. Both hubby and I were up way too early this morning with major storms in the area. We didn't hear a peep from their room and this is while thunder is just shaking the house. I'm not too happy when they blow a nap (yes we mean you, Audrey) but I can trade that for how well they tend to do at night.
For all the pictures and videos we have of them, you really just don't get some of the best moments on camera. Tonight Allie decided to do "laps" on the landing - no idea but she'd crawl 4-5 feet, turn around and crawl back, and then repeat. She finally stopped probably wondering what I found so funny. Or how Audrey will clap after she's done something she thinks is worthy of such applause.
Off topic - do you think it's better to take potential risks that could turn out badly or risk never changing things in hopes of making things better? (Random, aren't I?) And no has nothing to do with hubby and I or the girls...... More just a thought process.
Nothing wrong with having your day - because you deserved it.
ReplyDeleteIt is near impossible to catch the best moments on camera.
I weigh the risks before making a decision. I never have a cut and dry reaction, just really depends on the individual situation (probably not much help, sorry).
Depends on how badly things could turn out. Generally, I try to take risks as long as they're reversible. Can I undo this if it doesn't work for me? That's the way I look at it.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I wish I had a holster for my camera/video camera. They always do things when you least expect it and then stop as soon as you get your camera.
I am not a big risk taker, but my husband is. We usually manage to balance each other out. I think that sometimes things have to completely fall apart FIRST so that they can be put back together again correctly.
ReplyDeleteI think those moments are the best - I love when Micah claps for himself, too. Sometimes, I wonder what they are thinking when they do things!
ReplyDeleteAs for taking risks...I am a pragmatist. I weigh risks v. benefits. If the risk could end up badly...but you could recover from that, it might be worth it if the potential reward is great. It also depends on if it is a longshot. I think part of life is taking risks, and you never get anywhere without taking some risks. I just don't take foolish risks, or risks that would risk the health/safety/security of my family. - Tkeys
