I love this picture
Mia and Daddy went to Turtle park and he took some really amazing photos of her.
Lots of family time
We had a great weekend. Just going for long walks to the park and the coffee shop. They are at a very trying age but also an adorable age. Especially when they play together. Too cute.

I'm going to live no matter what the technician thinks
Does anyone else feel like the way your technician asks you to take a seat after your mammogram is an excellent indication of how much longer you have to live? I could of sworn she was crying when she told me to get dressed and take a seat while they review the films and I thought I heard her whisper to me that she was so very sorry for my current predicament of only having 20 seconds left to live.
Thankfully, I misread her and after a wait of about 10 minutes I was released with a clean bill of health.

Doesn't everyone do this?
Laurie: “Dennis, can you sign this?”
Dennis: “What is it?”
Laurie: “You can read it if you need to but basically it says if our plane goes down we want the girls in grief counseling twice a week, and we want a celebration of life instead of a funeral and that we would want the girls to know we are all around them as energy in their life so they will never be alone and we would want XX and XX as guardians as long as they promise to never introduce them to organized religion.”
Dennis: “Are you serious? Should we even go?”
Laurie: “Of course, it’s our anniversary. Aren’t you excited?”
Dennis: “Well, now that I know all of this…not really.”
(The will is in the works)

While the kiddies are away the parents will play
Dennis and I had the BEST anniversary weekend in Minneapolis. We ate too much, drank too much, laughed just enough and spent time with friends. The city was beautiful and we both cried the whole way home (not really--I thought it would add a dramatic essence to the story)
This is our anniversary self-portrait. This is the 10th picture we tried.
Happy Anniversary--You are still the kindest person I've ever met!

The best daddy
How lucky are the girls to have a daddy that takes time out of his very very very important all night business meetings in a sleepy little town known as Vegas to buy these little fashion gems.

The ebb and flow of parenting
I'm starting to realize parenting has the same ebb and flow as all relationships. The husband/wife you can't get enough of one day and two days later you are daydreaming about how wonderful it would be if they couldn't talk for an extended period of time...or the friend you think knows you like no other and then offers you a burger..or the sister that makes you laugh harder than anyone you know but also makes you crazy when she calls you on things you can't hide from because she DOES know you like no other. I digress.
Your children are no different. Some days I literally could be arrested because I can't get enough of them and am probably borderline inappropriate (not to mention-illegal) in trying to kiss them as many times as they will allow yet two days later hear Mozart playing when the nanny arrives and then start daydreaming that she tells me she loves this job so much that she would love to stay longer and feed and bathe them if I didn't mind.
Right now, I'm in my yummy stage. How could you not-look at these two little loveys!

How sweet is this?
The girls (with the help of Felisha) made these little birds and potted planters for Mothers Day. They will definitely go in the big box of mommy keepsakes.
Thanks also to daddy for making breakfast in bed and letting me sleep in (no pictures of that event-trust me, you wouldn't want to see it)
