Reasons I haven't been blogging

7. I have a four month old who still is not consistently sleeping through the night.

I do not like to start my day at 3 am.
Or 4 am.
Or 5am.
One night.
He will sleep.
All.
Night.
Long.
And so
will I.


6. Nate's Naked Nap time.
There is no diaper there.
There is no diaper anywhere.
I threw the diaper. Yes, I did.
I peed upon it.
While on the floor.
Now could you, would you, please close the door?
Close it firmly, leave the room.
I need more time to get this right.
If I try and try with all my might.
I might just hit the cup in mid flight.

Duct tape, DUCT TAPE you say?
I laugh in the face of duct tape. I will rip open my diaper.
I will escape. Duct tape is no match for Super Nate!
~
A special treat? You will give me a special treat? Only if I keep my clothes on? Special treat now? SPECIAL TREAT! I love special treat.
(So far it has worked. I love special treat too.)

5. We traveled. I got to see one of my best friends from college. Oh, how I miss her. Can we shrink the distance between TN and TX? Please?

4. Oh the cuteness! How can you not spend all your time taking pictures of these two little guys? (And then editing them on Picnik.com!)














3. Nate likes to help cook!
And really. Who wouldn't find salt and dish soap delicious?
















2. Nate likes to help with Caleb!
He likes to help him play with his toys.
Caleb does not always find this particularly helpful.






1. Really, I have no excuse. The one that can run is now going to a mom's day out program at our church. Oh the freedom!

I like this blog - as you would notice if you checked our blog, I probably need to do this as well.... or we could just keep our wonderful friends as our last blog so everytime people check they see your beautiful faces :)

I'm trying to do all my blogging now, before this little one comes. I know my days of "free" time are coming to an end very very soon! Definitely dreading the middle of the night stuff...
