last week

I don't know where to start when it comes to blogging about last week.

It is filled with mixed feelings.

So much good.

Surrounded by so much terrifying.

We are all Okay.

Tap shoes, soccer games, doctors visits, surgery scheduled, crutches, mini breakdowns, missed naps, home searching, offer writing, tears, aebleskivers, running, prayer, baby showers, play-dates, Ben needs a new ACL, making cookies, playing at the park, ballet shoes, vacuuming, lipstick, testimony strengthening, ants, laughter dishes and laundry, toe nail painting, prayer, new pink boots, not running, time outs, early mornings, late nights, laundry piles, pumpkin, braids, did I mention aebleskivers?, Cannonball Run II, prayer.

It was a busy week. Some parts I would do again in a heart beat. Some I hope I never have to go through again. (Cannonball Run II)

This was the first batch that actually looked like balls and not little Ms. Pacmen.

Lets hope this week is much better :)

good grief

All day the professor and I have felt like this.

... which is totally crazy, we have a million things to be thankful for.

Sometimes it's easier to see the bad ones.

Tomorrow is a new day.

A day that will start in Maryland and end in Oregon.

...which is exciting

...very exciting.

We are looking for a new place to a call our own.

So far everyone we have spoken to has had nothing but wonderful things to say about it.

I am just nervous about the plane ride (two littles ones are coming with us)

Wish us Luck!

and if you are lucky we will bring you back a doughnut from here.

or at least eat one in your honor.

stuff...

things I have figured out today...

brownie + protein shake does not equal a nutritious lunch

just because Jocelyn can't get out of her room doesn't mean she is taking a nap

Brooke needs to be swaddled in order to go to sleep

The Little Mermaid two is freaky but for entirely different reasons than the original

Serena Williams is embarrassing

running up the two flights of stairs in my house today does not mean that I have worked out

I miss Ben when he is at work

I am really excited about this
