Chit Chat
The other day I was driving Kailey home from Grandma's house and heard her little voice.
"Aunt Vicki," she asked, " are you lost? And you have to say 'yes' so I can help you."
Of course I played along, but I didn't exactly take the exact turns as I was told.

Today we were driving to Ethan's birthday and Isaac inquired as to whether Aunt Michelle and Uncle Jeff were coming.
"No, Uncle Jeff is sad so he's staying home and Aunt Michelle is going to take care of him." I replied.
"Oh," Ike responded with a sad little voice. "Poor Jeff."

The other night Ike was telling me about Carl. He knows that when Carl comes to our house he makes something beautiful. Carl has given us beautiful wood floors, new countertops, and a freshly tiled bathroom floor so Ike (using hand motions along with his story) says, "Carl makes this and Carl makes that!"
"Yes, Carl makes our house beautiful," I agree.
"Hmmm," Ike thinks out loud. "Carl makes another baby!"
I chuckle a little at the thought. Carl and his wife have three beautiful little girls ages 2 and under, but I'm sure another one would be welcomed warmly! We'll have to wait and see if Ike is right:)

Oh what a day!
I was trying to write in my blog earlier, but it kept translating my writing into some unknown language. Weird.
Well, I knew today would be a great day when I went through the Starbucks drive thru and their register was down. Yes, that translates into an "on the house" order of strawberry frapachino for Ike and a latte for me. How lovely! I was going to use the gift card my wonderful sister gave me, but didn't have to. It is still loaded! Guess I'll take my little man out for another date some other time!
When Ike and I got home from our little date, my Mom called and invited us over for lunch . . . AND dinner! Whew! It must be my lucky day! Not an ounce of cooking is to be done! On to top it off, my Mom has friends in town visiting that we'll get to meet.
My sisters both have cameras for their computers so I got to view and chat with my sister in Reno. I haven't got to do that before. It was really neat because we could see her adorable little son Alex play with his beloved trains and we could hear the coos of Isabelle. How fun! What an all around fantstic day!

Just Me?
Is it just me, or do we nursing mothers eat all day long? I am pretty sure that I passed up my 2000 calorie daily allowance after second breakfast. Yep, that's right SECOND breakfast. Hmm, this may be the reason why I could barely dance my way into my jeans yesterday . . . not to mention that zipping them up wasn't even an option. Ahhh, how grateful I am for sweat pants.
Postpartum bodies are just plain commical. I was a fortunate girl. My pregnancy pounds weren't anywhere to be found a week after the births. But what kind of body did I transform into? Optimus Prime? Megatron? Certainly not! I am squishier than the Pillsbury doughboy.

Blog
I am going to be closing off our blog to open reading for privacy purposes (we've gotten virus warnings from some of the anonymous comments left but we can't see). If you would like keep reading our blog you can e-mail me at wickiwoo25@yahoo.com and I'd be more than happy to send you an invitation. I'll be changing the settings one week from today.
