We went to the park this afternoon to play. Brodie and Lucas had a great time, while I chased after them. They both always went in opposite directions of each other. I tried to position myself an equal distance between the two of them in order to keep a watchful eye on...

Just before leaving to do afternoon errands, I noticed Lucas' cheek was slightly red and irritated. It reminded me of when Brodie had an allergic reaction to, I believe, raspberry soy yogurt. But I didn't think that was happening to Lucas, so I put some hydro-cortisone ointment on,...

Sunday morning we walked over to the Oki Park playground to meet our friend Mr. S. and his two kids (ages 18 mo and 4 1/2 years). All was calm until we arrived. Lucas immediately walked over to the swings, picked up wet bark and put it into his mouth. He then smeared the dirt...

Thursday morning Brodie, Lucas, and I ran around Lake Natoma with my friend and her son. It couldn't have been a more perfect day with sun, blue skies and nice Autumn temperatures. The trees were vibrant hues of yellows, oranges, and reds as many of them have already started dropping their...

As I was rocking Brodie to sleep tonight, my mind was wandering, jumping from one random kid related thought to another. Lucas is finally breathing quietly. He is finally getting over his cold. Maybe I don't need to use the humidifier at night anymore. He still has a...

My husband was home late last night. So I didn't have any help with the bath and bedtime routine. Lucas and Brodie were not happy. Luckily, they still fell asleep without much of a fuss.
Brodie woke up once at 1AM. In the craziness of getting Lucas and Brodie ready for...

As I ran pushing Lucas and Brodie up and over the Occidental freeway overpass on Wednesday morning, I couldn't help but notice the graffiti written on the concrete wall. It says, "Find Beauty Everywhere." This graffiti has been there for several weeks. Every time I see...

Night #2 was even better than the first. I had my doubts, but was gladly proven wrong. Brodie woke up again around 8:45 PM, just like the night before, crying at full volume. I went into his room to check on him. He of course was just fine. As I laid him down in his...

What I thought was going to be a horrible night, turned out fantastic. Lucas and Brodie were both asleep by 6:45 PM. They both drank their milk, and within minutes were in their cribs fast asleep.
I went to bed early around 8 PM, so when I awoke to at 8:45 PM to...

Lucas and Brodie are both asleep. Lucas will most likely sleep through the night. Brodie will wake up in about 3 hours expecting 4 oz of milk. On a typical night, Brodie wakes up crying around 11 PM and 3 AM expecting 4 oz of milk. His crying quickly escalates to screaming...

Yesterday Brodie woke up at 3:30 AM. I tried repeatedly to get him to go back to sleep in his crib, with no luck. Finally at 4:30 AM, Lucas woke up from all of Brodie's fussing. So my day started bright and early, or rather dark and early. There is nothing bright about...

How could I have a bad day at work? I'm a stay at home Mom.
It all started Monday of this week. The pilot light on our hot water heater went out. My husband and I didn't figure it out until we were both home together that evening. Its still under warranty, so he...

This morning while I was running pushing Lucas and Brodie in their running stroller, I heard another runner's foot steps behind me. Occasionally the sound of the footsteps would disappear, and then they would be back again. The sound of the footsteps getting closer motivated me to run...

Yes, a Flea Afflair. I hadn't heard of it until recently, when my Mom told me about the event. It's a cross between a garage sale, craft fair, and antique boutique. Since my Mom had a booth at the 1st Annual Flea Afflair last weekend in Auburn, I drove up to check it out with...

Having twins, keeps me busy. This is a understatement. Time flies by. I hardly have any time to stop and take it all in. Now that they are both walking, they are constantly on the go.
As we were all getting ready for bed last night, I watched Lucas walk the...
