Does anyone else do this?

Tell me I'm not the only one who choses what to make for dinner... based on what dishes are clean. *hides*

It's just been a crazy weekend. We had a wedding to go to on Saturday, which ended up being an ALL day affair. And the past two days have been spent putting together a custom order of wipes and a lovey gift set. Ollie's been constantly nursing. Abbie and Isaiah have been mischeivious little monkeys, both refusing to nap. Yes, very long weekend, indeed.

But the wedding turned out great. Since Thomas was one of the groomsmen, we knew there would be a lot of waiting while he got dressed, did pictures, etc. so we decided to leave Abbie and Isaiah with his parents. It was the longest I had ever been away from the kids, but it was a nice break from the usual chaos. Ollie was an absolute doll. He fell asleep a few minutes before the ceremony started, and slept all the way through! (He didn't even have an explosive-sounding poo like I was terrified would happen). He did nurse pretty much the entire time during the reception, which was fine, expecially since no one said a word about it!

Here's a cute picture I got of Daddy and Ollie:

We have to do the whole wedding-thing again in 3 weeks, as another one of Thomas' friends is getting married. I'm happy to see others so happy and in love, though!

Wow, over a month, uh?

I can't believe it's been over a month since I last blogged. It seems every time I sat down, I was interrupted, and just told myself I would post later. And then later came, but with more interruptions. I was doing so well with keeping this semi-regular, too. Ah well. Forgive me? Everything has been going great. I have a few exciting updates I'd rather do as separate posts, so I'll hang on to those thoughts for the time being. In general, though, we've just been busy, mostly enjoying the gorgeous weather. The kids are the ecstatic new owners of a swingset and sandbox. The garden is all planted and starting to grow. We're almost done with enclosing the bottom of the house. Inside the house, I've been bit by the nesting bug, as cabinets are being reorganized, baby clothes are being sorted, ceiling fans are being scrubbed. The kitchen is being used for both cooking freezer meals, as well as dying diapers. I've taught myself to crochet in between finishing up some custom sewing orders. And time for an interruption. Abbie is telling me how huuuuungry she is, so I guess I'm off to fix lunch. I promise I'll be back around in the next couple days with some more detailed posts.
