Just the girls
My mom and her fiancé are getting married in just a few short weeks, and last night she was surprised with a bachelorette party.

104 Days of Summer Vacation…
Can anyone (other than Ray and Noah) finish the lyrics for me?!? If you can then you your children are as hooked on Phineas and Ferb as we are Noah is. I had seen an episode back before we got rid of cable (almost a year ago), but Noah was too young, so it didn’t catch on here in the Krause house… until last week that is.

Mama’s little helper
I decided to tackle the clothes in my closet and dresser last week. I have fallen behind in my cleaning schedule over the past few weeks, thanks in part to both kids getting sick and then Abby’s birthday. Since all of that is behind us now, I decided to take back my house and start reorganizing again.

Abby’s Pizza Party
One of the problems with living in a townhouse is that there isn’t much room to celebrate in the colder months, especially when the immediate family is as large as ours is. Because of this, Abby’s first birthday ended up being a pizza party at one of our favorite local pizzeria’s… not what you may expect of a first birthday, but it turned out great!

Happy Birthday Abigail!
Dear little Abby,
One year ago you let us know that you were a strong willed little girl… you were so determined to come out and meet us even though you were supposed to wait until April 2nd (give or take ). You were a tiny little peanut… not the big baby we were expecting and your “drive thru” delivery had the whole maternity ward talking about you.

My name in lights
I’d love to see my name in lights… well maybe not… but I have been featured over at Frosted Fingers in Paula’s new Chicago Blogger series.
Jump, Jump, Jumping
Mr Noah has learned how to jump! He finally figured it out about a month ago and has been jumping and hopping all over the house since. It’s too cute – at first he barely got any air under his feet, but it was completely new to him and he loved it and squealed in delight whenever he jumped (while saying “jump” at the same time, because you can’t jump if you don’t say it).

11 days
11 days until Abby turns 1. I can’t even tell you what I was doing a year ago at this time… probably studying for my Psych class or preparing for another check up with my OB. I know that I wasn’t expecting my second born to be gracing us with her presence in such a short amount of time… both in days and the length of time it actually took to birth her.
Snow scooting
Now that most of the snow has been melting and there are only a few inches left of what once used to be 3 foot high drifts next to the house, I thought I would remember the blizzard of 2011 with a little video of Noah scooting down one of the snow “mountains” by the house… by the way… those snow mountains still exist and will probably still be here in April since they were well over 6 feet high!
Just a spoon full of sugar..
I really wanted to write about something fresh, new and well… earth shattering (yeah right!!), but there will be none of that today. No instead I’m taking a teeny tiny break from what I’ve been doing since late last Thursday… which is to say that for the few minutes it’s going to take me to write this I will not be wiping any noses… or putting Vaseline under said noses… or looking for a new “bwoogie cwoff” (Noah translation: boogie cloth).
