The Beginning

Well, everything has to have a beginning.......so starts this blog. The main players....Craig (32), Kristin (27), CJ (5), Kaylee (2), and Drake (9 mos). There is always something silly going on at our house......a few minutes ago it was Miss Kay (Kaylee) dancing around on one foot another story) and singing while watching Little Mermaid. Today began like any other day waking up to two kids in the bed.....the number always varies between one, two, and three. Craig was at work......his boss is in town and with that and the high gas prices he has been working a lot. I hope that he is able to get a day off soon.....just goes to show how much he cares about the kids and I, to work so hard to support us. As we were getting ready to go over to grandma's (my mom's) for our usual walk Miss Kay kicked the side of a mirror and cut the bottom of her foot. I put a gauze pad on it and taped it up with blue painter's tape (so much for my nursing skills, huh?) until we could get some other tape. I think she get's the no fear attitude from her dad and the accident proness (is that a word?) from me. Other than that it has been a pretty normal day. At the moment CJ is playing Indiana Jones on the computer, Miss Kay is watching Little Mermaid, and Drake is sleeping......he spent the whole afternoon on mommy in the Becco carrier happy as a lark. He fell asleep in it early though and I fear he will be up earlier tonight to nurse.

Positive thought for today: cuddles from a two year old princess are some of the sweetest there are, seeing the huge grin on your nine month old's face as he charges you and tries to bite your nose with his two teeth lifts your heart, and listening to your five year old son work through game obstacles on his own instead of complaing that the game is too hard gives you hope that you really are doing something right :)
