A Funny

picture Jared took at Starbucks of KA sitting across from him

So, Jared likes to take Kati Ann on "trips." These trips usually just involve a little getting out the house for 30 minutes or so to give me a little relief. Today, Jared told Kati Ann they were going on a "trip." She was quite excited (as usual). They headed to Starbuck's and had a little date together.
They got back in the car and
KA asked Jared: "Where are we going on our trip, Daddy?"
Jared: "Our trip was to Starbuck's"
KA: "Daddy, coffee is NOT a trip!"

Something Absolutely New




“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.”

I read this quote today and realized just how true it was. I knew my life would change when I had children but I don't think I realized how much I would change. Things that were important before just don't matter and things that I didn't think mattered that much are the most important things! I absolutely LOVE being a mother and can't believe how blessed I am with two amazing children. I love the "new" me that was born on May 1, 2007 and again on April 27, 2010.

Sweetness

On the way home from some friends,
Kati Ann asked me, "Mom, can I go see...Jesus?"
I asked her, "Where is Jesus, Kati Ann?"
Kati Ann responded with "At His house!" (In a "duh" tone of voice)

Jared & I looked at each other and really had nothing to say, that was a good answer!

Bobi Ann's Turtle Frosty


So, at VBS last week we got coupons for a free Frosty at Wendy's and so today KA and I went to get one on our way home for lunch to have for dessert. I decided to create my own Turtle Frosty with mine (Turtle Ice Cream is one of my favorites). I took my Frosty & added caramel syrup and pecans & enjoyed my own Turtle Frosty Creation. Quite frankly, it was just too good not to share!

7 Weeks of Adorableness



I don't know just how it happens so fast but my teeny tiny baby is growing. I look at him and try to envision the size he was when they handed him to me at the hospital and I just can't believe how much bigger he is! He's now in 3-6 month clothes. Kati Ann didn't move up sizes quite as fast and I can't believe just how quickly he is growing.
