These days I'm trying to smile more and be stressed less. Not that I'm stressed out a lot or anything but I know I have an abnormal anxiety level at times. So lately, I've been trying to keep it under sontrol so I can enjoy the little things.
For instance..
Raegan is trying her darnedest to laugh and it is the sweetest sound I have heard since I heard Nicolas laugh for the first time!
Nicolas is really REALLY into trains these days. I "made" him a train table. More like I just set up the tracks with all his trains on a table we no longer use. He plays with it ALL morning! And best of all? He says "choooo choooo" and (tries) to do the "chugga chugga" before also! Pure entertainment! I see a trip to the train museum in our very near future!
Something I'm really not a big fan of but I have to appreciate is daddy has become the greatest thing since sliced bread to Nicolas. Anytime he hears a honk from someone locking their car he runs to the front window yelling daddy! Anytime we go "byebye" he always asks "daddy?" I can't be mad because it is super sweet that he already idolizes him.
Raegan's blue eyes are still here and I think they are permanent. I love love LOVE them! I'm still so astonished she came out with blue eyes and I could stare into them all day long!
This weekend we are taking a family trip to San Francisco! I am so excited! Ryan will be participating in a bow shooting tournament with his mom's boyfriend and I must say, my man looks pretty sexy with a bow in hand! We (the kids, my mother in law and I) probably won't be staying to watch but at least we get to tag along! Yay for cooler weather and a mini vacation!
The other night I decided to (finally) make Nicolas a cape. I pinned it a long time ago but haven't done it until just now. He looks adorable running around the house with his cape on. It's nothing special just made from a blue t-shirt so I think I'll spruce it up this coming week by adding a lightening bolt or something.
In a previous post I showed how I made Nicolas his chalk table and let me just say I'm so happy I finally finished it! We literally draw on it every night. Ryan and I have yet to have a tic-tack-toe tournament..he knows I'd whoop him! We (ryan and I) have so much fun drawing pictures, shapes, letters and numbers for Nicolas to learn but he has more fun scribbling over them. Oh well..
I love to cook (not super confident but I do love a good recipe) and the other day I made a casserole I found on the (yet again) wonderful Pinterest. It was amazing! Definitely going in our rotation of dinner dishes!
Yesterday I talked to my sister for a bit on the phone. (we went for a long stretch of not talking on te phone and I don't know why but we text probably everyday) we had some laughs and caught up each other with the latest in our lives. I always enjoy chatting it up with her..after all she IS my best friend!
I have so many events to look forward to..Nicolas' second birthday. Raegan's baptism. Thanksgiving. Christmas. Our wedding anniversary (3 years!!) oh I need to start planning!
No pictures this time because I'm being lazy!
