DO TURTLES PICK THEIR NOSE?

Here starts my morning:

Me: Tatiana what are u eating?

Tati: My nose.

This whole morning I have wished I was a turtle. They have it so easy. They swim, eat and take it slow and when things get stressful they retreat into their shell. Where the hell is my shell? This whole buying a house thing has been a deathly terrifying, emotional rush roller coaster. We thought we would be closed yesterday and now it looks more like Tuesday. There has been one problem after another. The funds we had to redo the house have dwindled into unexpected problems. *Sigh* All the fun ideas I had to redo the house will have to wait..and wait..and wait.

BUT....we are getting a house. AND....I do have a great family. AND...there are still things to smile about. AND...even if it is with construction paper we are going to move in just in time to decorate for Christmas. AND...thank goodness I'm not a turtle because if they find themselves on their back they can't flip back over. HERE'S TO FLIPPING OVER!!

Peace

I am so in love with my little family right now. I feel like my heart could just explode I am so happy! My little girls are so much fun. Tatiana is saying the funniest stuff right now. I love her personality and spunk. I love that no matter how independent she is only I can kiss her "owwiees" away. I love that she asks me to cuddle with her every night before bed. If only I could get her stop picking her nose (yuck!) she might just be perfect. I could get lost in her big brown eyes. Alilia has become so alert. She loves to play and she will break your eardrum, she screams so loud. She has gotten so big. I put in 6-12 month clothes today and I wanted to cry because they fit. She is only four months and she commands the family. Her smile makes up most of her sweet little face and she is the most ticklish little chub chub. She is definitely her mommy's little girl and would be thrilled if I could just cuddle her all day. Her eyes have stayed that dark grey green and I love them. George has been so wonderful as always. He has worked so hard so we can get into our house. I love that his family is always number one to him. He has been working out everyday and he is smokin right now! I am so grateful for my little family.
