Hello, sun?

Not that the sun helps anything (and for car rides is probably a worse choice) but seriously, this raining for a week straight thing with colder than average temps, enough. Hubby needs to cut the grass, probably twice. Give it a break.

Okay new week. A pretty up and down week last week which culminated on Saturday - had a great day planned and a really good friend dropped the ball and I pretty much got way too mad. Just had been looking forward to it and then nothing. So I was crabby, the girls probably feeding off me were crabby, sigh...... Sunday went a lot better so we'll move on. She's "redeeming" herself this weekend which, if the weather perks up, means hubby and I can go to the winery. (Sigh, if he feels like it, ugh, seriously)

A slight "issue" with the girls is differentiating commands. If you say no to one, both of them sort of stop what they're doing and the one who isn't doing something wrong seems confused. Even if you say "No, Allie" Audrey still contemplates the whole scenario. Or say "go get the ball" and they both race off. Even better was Sunday morning. We're slowly failing at trying to get Allie off the pacifier. With both girls in the general area, I asked "Allie, can you give mommy the pacifier?" And like a train-wreck unfolding, I already knew what was going to happen. Audrey perked up, went over to Allie, took it right out of her mouth and proudly handed it to me. Meanwhile Allie, um, total meltdown. So I had to give it back to her while Audrey stared at me as if to say "Um, what the heck? You just wanted it."

Random pic time.

  1. I totally know how you feel when you make plans with someone and they have to cancel. I get all hyped up about whatever it may be, and the let down is so much worse. I hope it all follows through this weekend for you.

    I had to giggle about the paci incident, only because mine have done similar things.

  3. They are adorable! sorry your plans fell through - that makes me so angry when it happens. Good luck on differentiating commands...I have that issue with the dog and Micah sometimes (I yell "NO" at the dog and Micah cries, or I tell Micah NO and the dog looks hurt that I'm yelling at her and hides) so I can imagine it is even harder with twins. - Tkeys
