happy birthday to luke today and ava tomorrow!


claire wanted me to give a big shout out to her favorite boy cousin, luke! he turns 8 years old today. wow how time flies! luke is such a fantastic kiddo. he is the nicest little/big guy to claire. he is very gentle and loves to play with her. he is truly this way with all kids, but especially those younger than him. she also told me not to forget about ava who celebrates her big day tomorrow. she is turning 4 years old! again, very hard to believe. ava and claire will be great little playmates if we can get them together again. ava generally is very motherly to claire and makes sure she doesn't get into anything she shouldn't. she's got a spunky personality and is adorable, of course. we love them very much and are hoping they have a fabulous birthday. we hope that we can see them some time this summer-chicago?? ava-are you coming in a couple of weeks? HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday LUKEY DUKEY! I can't believe you are 8 today. Pretty soon you will be driving a car instead of driving your sisters crazy! Ava your big day is tommorow and I am sure Cinderella would go to your party if she wasn't so busy at the castle. I love you both and miss you! Have a great day--we will see you within the next week or so!

Love ya,
Jessica

Sweetness Overload

So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really ...

Progress

I used to be prompt about scrapbooking in Claire's album. After seeing my sister's pictures piled up three children later, I was determined not to have the same fate. I am sure it is difficult for some of you to believe, but since Claire has been born, my free time has been limited. Really, it has. So, our pictures are finding their way into piles too--5 to be exact. However, I am thrilled to say that I finished (ok, they aren't completely finished, but nearly. I only have journaling to do.) six pages. Yes, that's right, I said SIX!! It was a major accomplishment. Here they are for your viewing pleasure. Only 5 more months left to get through....any volunteers? Jessica???
