The dialogue: which one do you want to feed? do we have milk made for Beckham? I'll get senny, oh, turn off the light. don't let her wake up. don't let him fall asleep yet! dent found it quite humorous and needed to capture the moment.
My mom has been with us for two weeks, and while she has fully put in her time around here, I am sorry to see her go. I know we all need to move on, but she has been such an amazing help to us. She's definately done more cleaning at my house than she does at her own (she has people, you see)! Between the vacuuming, the constant laundry, keeping meals on the table and the kitchen clean, dusting all of my blinds and hauling the garbage out... well, she's gotten quite a work out and our house is in great shape! Now if only I can keep it this way after she's gone!
She has also been able to simply be grandma, feeding three children different things at different times of the day, reading endless stories, playing make-believe, giving out lots and lots of cuddles and kisses and tucking them into bed. I truly hope they don't go through severe withdrawals after she goes, and that they practice a little patience as it will take a while for me to be as efficient as she is at this! Mom, I know you sacrificed a lot to be with us for so long, and that dad and ben think they are going to die without you, but Denten and I are both so grateful you have been here. Thanks a million!

You are going to do great. We will have to come visit when you are ready for guests. I am glad your mom was able to come and help you. Mom's are the best.
Hmmmmmm. Withdrawals may be in your future. Thank goodness for telephones and hopefully husbands with paternity leave?
That is a great picture! It kind of captures the essence of things, right now, doesn't it? I hope you have a lot of helpers in the wings! BTW, love Seneca's jammies! Tessa has the same ones!
I love moms...who else would ever let clean your messy bathroom??? I'm so glad your mom was able to come for 2 weeks. That is fabulous!
Moms are the greatest and I'm sad that your is leaving. Feel free to borrow mine, she's coming on Sunday to help with my mad monkies!
When my mom leaves is when I get full blown depression. :) At least for a few days. And by the way, I was just looking at the pic of you and Denten and I am pretty sure you aren't allowed to look so good so soon. Some things in life will never be fair! :)
Very kewl.
I'm getting concerned. No posts since your mom left. I mean what, are you busy or something? Hang in there!
