so fun i can't even stand it

socks on his head...because that is the silliest thing he could do

i am the worst blogger! i keep thinking that i need to post about cool stuff we do, places we go, awesome achievements of the kids...but really i just need to post about us. we rarely do "cool stuff" or "go places" or have "awesome achievements" (ok, not that my kids don't do great stuff, but you know what i mean...)...so i'm just gonna bore you to death and talk about our terribly ordinary life...

ellie and spence are cuter than anything ever. i love love love these two little monkeys!! maybe i'm just better at appreciating the preschool years now that i know i'm at the end of it? i don't know...but i really have so much fun with them. they love to quote movies and talk in silly voices...where in the world did that come from?! dave is proud...:) they are both very snuggly and affectionate, too, which is my absolute most favorite thing. ellie tells me i'm her best friend...i hope that lasts! and spencer wants my help to do most everything because, as he says, "you are just magical, mom!" :)

i feel really blessed with spence and ellie...they are a little closer in age than joe and aubrey (17 months vs. 20 months) but really remind me so much of the older two. i know that i was a little more uptight earlier in my mom years :) and i dealt with some really awful depression junk the first year of aubrey's life--making it so that i have very little memory at all of that period of time. i just feel like, in some ways, i'm getting a chance to do it again...to have my little boy and little girl and be a little more chilled out and enjoy the things i hurried through before.

what a lucky mom i am...the most funnest (yes, mari, i know it's not a real word) kids are MINE!!!!! :)
