three weeks

and three kids. wow. these last three weeks have flown by, especially when i think about having to go back to work in another three. bleh. i have actually spent a few days all alone with all three huffsters myself. it wasnt nearly as scary as i thought it was going to be.

i have discovered that it is a scientific certainty that while i am nursing arlo;
a. someone will spill something
b. someone will get hurt
c. someone wont share their toys
d. someone else will cry about it
and what can i do about it? sit on the couch with a baby attached to me and watch the newest drama unfold in front of me. apparently my voice alone doesnt carry much comfort or authority. hmm.

i have yet to try to go anywhere with all three by myself. im not sure when that is going to happen. leslie? amanda? any word on this? i thought about going to the grocery store on monday but thats about as far as it got. the thinking stage.

but enough about kids, lets talk about presents! some more goodies arrived in the mail last week! this wee bunny came to live at our house compliments of the ever talented hillary.

much too cute for arlo to handle right now, or ever maybe...

a wonderful surprise package from giao with goodies for mom and baby.


and this beautiful hand-painted canvas which will hang perfectly above the crib

so unbelievably sweet. i love the little bird!

last night arlo and i went to the airport to pick up kerry. and lucky us she found some wonderful thrift stores while visiting with her grandma in olympia. who could pass up this little friend?

yeah, i wouldnt have been able to pass it up either.

thank you so much for the wonderful gifts. it really is amazing all the love that is in this blog community!
