Lately, our days have been pretty much all work (me at home and John at the studio trying to get caught up from his time off with me) and any “me time” John and I used to have is clearly going to be “WE time” for quite a while. The days are full of me learning how to juggle two kiddos and the evenings are John and I working as a team to get everybody down so we can all SLEEEEEP! (Ahhhhh, sleep, you wonderful thing!) Even though we are exhausted by the end of the day, the evenings really are the sweetest time. Here’s a little peek into our evening routine from last night, once we came inside from playing.

Here’s Miles, soaking in his bath. You have to give that guy plenty of time for his bath because does this look like a kid who wants to get out anytime soon?

Meanwhile, while Miles is having story time with John, Jocelyn gets her bath and once on the towel, I couldn’t believe what I saw. Look at this little punkin, not even a month old and holding that head up high! Had to grab the camera, even if she was in the dark.

I kept my camera close by that evening, hoping to capture some elusive Miles/Jocelyn time, but Miles is WAY too fast (and was too close) for me to catch it. He didn’t want to give her kisses for the camera, he was too busy trying to show her a toy.

Just as Miles was giving up on showing her the toy, she was ready to check it out.

She certainly has eyes for whatever Miles is doing, and I guess that is only the beginning. It’s going to be so amazing to see how much she learns from Miles. Miles was raised in this totally adult environment. I mean, heck, he watches CBS Sunday Morning with us and gets REALLY excited about it. (Yes, he’s a 3 year old that loves watching the NEWS.) However, Jocelyn is going to be raised in a world with another child in it. That alone is going to make her world so much different than the world Miles started out in. So much more noise, more mess (A LOT more mess) and all the whimsy that Miles’ imagination and energy brings to his surroundings. So it’s just interesting to me to imagine how that will create two different little souls, with different outlooks and personality.

Ok, I really probably don’t have enough sleep to be writing this much and expecting it to make sense. (Though honestly, Jocelyn is pretty much sleeping through the night now, so I can’t use sleep deprivation as an excuse much longer for air-headedness.) I’ll shush. Gotta go work on dinner while the kiddos are napping! Thanks for stopping by.
