I just feel like updating.

These pics were taken 2 years apart almost to the day.
Yes those are the same sweaters. Mine and theirs.

Today was a good day and a horrible day. I walked 1.5 miles with my fitnessfriend and our kids, jogged a mile on her treadmill whilst gossiping about our hubbies. Made dinner and lunch at the same time. Declared it officially summer because I ate an artichoke for lunch. Cleaned the kitchen AND the floor. Babysat fitnessfriend's 2 kiddos(3 & 6) for 3.5 hours. Made cookies with ALL the kids. Acquired another child so her tired (PREGNANT!) momma could put away groceries and make dinner. Sent fitnessfriend's kids home to her hubby. Fed Mina, fed Caetlin. Stopped a Mina meltdown and took acquired child home. Bathed babies. Threw duvet, duvet cover and blanket in the wash. (Mina peed in my bed last night. Luckily on daddy's side. hehehe) Read 5 bedtime stories. Put babies to bed. Was bitten by a rabid 2 year old. Put said 2 year old on time-out and then sent her (back) to bed. PEACE & QUIET! Read everyone's blogs. Typed this. Yeah, I'm tired. I'm just waiting for the hubby to get home from school so we can talk. Yep. Ummmm. Yeah.

MTM + a neat MTM project

Apple wedges, lollipop
peanut butter for dipping (fingers of course), Annie's homegrown organic white cheddar bunny crackers
fish and a homemade egg roll.
And we did the little flaggy project from another mom. It's pretty cute. I think our tin was fancy today.

She ate almost everything. There were a few apple wedges and bunny crackers left. So once again MTM (& mommy) win. Yay us!

And even the baby enjoyed lunch. She chowed down on egg roll filling.

Green things

Our little container garden is doing good. I'm so excited about it. Mina like to help water.

Our big Roma tomato

Everything! (lettuce, basil, carrots, radish, green onion, tomato & zinnia)

Green Onions & radishes

New summer clothes.

So I'm not a huge fan of matchy-matchy clothes for kids but Mina is dying for matching outfits. So I give. If it makes her happy (& Caet doesn't care at all) why not? Plus they do look kinda cute. They now have matching dresses, matching ice cream shorts and a matching outfit. And Caet snagged some pink shorts just for her. I paid $1.25 for each pair of shorts, $2.80 a piece for the shirts and $5.60 each for their dresses. Got love Target's clearance rack.
