That’s where I am. 

Here’s the quick version:

Last Friday: Mother of Twins Club sale in the evening.  I bought 3 bags of clothes for both kids across 3 sizes for under $150.  And I still liked everything when I sorted it out at home.  Nice!

Saturday: A long day at CU for Homecoming, seeing old friends, having a special reunion with my closest college friends at my parents’ house.  Burgers/dogs, lots of little kids, no rain, good talks.  It came off SO beautifully (thanks to Jesus and my wonderful mom – Thanks MOM!), but I was exhausted by the end of the day.  As were the babies.  And Eric.  He’s such a great husband!

Sunday: Church, babies’ nap, lunch, play with babies, babies’ nap, enlarged the ‘baby pasture’ to give them more room to play, back to church/work in Talker nursery room (I think I pulled a muscle in my back), home to crash

Monday: drove back to C-ville to watch my youngest 2 nieces while my SIL prepped the new house for tomorrow’s big moving day activities.  Me + 4 yo + 2 10 mo + 6 mo = long, tiring day. 

The rest of this week:
Tomorrow: morning Bible study
Wednesday: no plans
Thursday: doctor’s appointment
Friday: Moms group meeting (at church)
Saturday: Parents’ meeting for Baby Dedication Sunday (on the 18th) from 9-11 in the morning.

One of these days maybe I’ll get a break and maybe Alex will sleep all the way through the night and I won’t feel like I’m barely staying on top of the basics.  I hope.

But on a better note, Alex climbed the stairs tonight by himself (with Eric behind him to keep him from falling).  He’s definitely going to be my climber.  And Erin has started clapping along when you cheer.  Both are too cute!

And I have the best-est babies in the world…in all the craziness of the last few days, we’ve had maybe 2 meltdowns.  Thank you Jesus!

And now I’m going to bed.
