A post full of randomness

The Weekend
This weekend was pretty nice all the way around. Gabe wanted to go for a walk Saturday so we put Sorsha and Gabrielle in strollers, Stasia on her bike, Anakin on his scooter, Gabe and I on foot and set out for our walk. We walked to Mom and Dad's house. I probably won't be making such an adventurous trip again any time soon. I am not in the best shape (which probably means I should do it more)and that just about tortured me. Not too mention the stress of watching the kids along some pretty busy streets :) The kids did great, I was very proud of Anakin and Stasia!! Sorsha and Gabrielle didn't get fussy or restless once.

I went to Penny's baby shower and it was so cute. I am so very excited to see how God has blessed them. It is just so awesome to see her glowing with her pregnancy :)


A Mouthful Of Problems
Anakin and Stasia both have a rough week awaiting them next week. Anakin has to have 4 of his bottom teeth pulled out. His permanent teeth are coming in and his baby teeth aren't loose at all. Stasia has to have a baby root canal and a crown on one tooth and a filling on another.

Other news
My baby said Mama for the first time last week! I am so thrilled. Anakin and Stasia both said Dada first but Sorsha and Gabrielle both have said Mama first. I feel so special :)
Gabrielle is growing up too fast. She has discovered her hands and feet and plays with them all the time. She bonks herself in the head with toys, coos, squeals and blows raspberries. She also gives kisses and holds up her arms when you walk by her.
Sorsha is also growing up too fast. I can't keep up with all the things she does and says. She is such a joy to our family. She is still giving me a rough time at night though.
And as seems to be the theme lately...Gabe is gone for the week again. He left this morning and will be home Thursday night.

And that sums up my random post of news & happiness :)
