My little artist....
















So as I was ironing my clothes for work this morning and about to leave for the day.......I just so happened to look down and find Josie in a huge puddle of black paint! Can you even imagine the panic that came over me?!? She was already dressed for school and was playing with some paint cans that she occasionally plays with while I iron in the laundry room. I have just been lazy enough not to take them to the garage in 2 months. I know that with a 1 year old this is a huge no no, but i don't exactly live by the "first time mom" rules anyway. She somehow managed to get that lid off and dumped that quart of black paint everywhere....I mean everywhere. It is now on the door frame, the side of my washing machine, my broom, and she is covered from head to toe. I threw her in the bathtub and wondered around for a seconded trying to figure out what to do. Anyway, as I somewhat cleaned both of us up and she splashed our in the black water, we were clean again and dressed for work and school. I still have a huge mess to clean up when I get home. Or at least what Josie looked like. I guess she decided she wanted to be something black for Halloween. Her belly was still black when I dropped her off at school. I looked like I had been working on a car and I had polka dots on my feet. All in all this is a pretty funny story....a great one for the baby book!

Overwhelmed...


I am still trying to figure the blogging thing out...And as I think of all the many things I start and never finish like this, I only hope that I can keep this up to date. I hope that one day I can finish Josie's "First Year" scrap book. When do we have time as moms? There are some many things that I want to with and for her......I just wonder when I am going to accomplish them all. By the way Meg, you are doing a fabulous job with Cole. You have already taken him to the zoo and to many other places that are on my list.

Busy Bee.....

Is life too busy, or do we choose to make it too busy??? I know I should really slow down sometimes, but do I have that choice? Or do I make myself to busy? Why does JJ always look so calm and relaxed.....? And I am always running around trying to get everyting done and he just kinda floats around on a cloud.
