A week (or two) of firsts! We’ve been busy!

October 18th, 2008

 

First of all I’d like to say that I’m actually very much on top of it, and the reason I left the previous post up for two weeks with no update was intentional so that all my readers would be able to see the pics from Race for the Cure.  (grin) You’re not buying it are you?

I’ve had a stomach bug that put me out for a week.  Pray the rest of my family doesn’t get it.  It was baaaad.

So let me get you caught up to speed on what’s happening with the crazy Moroz family:

Gracie has her first loose tooth.  She asks me every day if it’s going to fall out.   Honestly, I am not dealing well with this.  As a former dental assistant, nothing bothers me more than missing or crooked teeth.  Not that I am completely shallow, I would like to think you all know me better than that–it’s just Gracie has always had such pretty baby teeth.  And from the time she grew in those beautiful, white, straight teeth she has now, I knew this was coming.  It also means that Gracie is really not a toddler anymore. It is bittersweet.

Trinity got a bike!  So now both of the girls have Princess bikes, and Chris and I have bikes too.  We have enjoyed riding in this wonderful cooler weather.  When we want to go for rides around the block, we put Trinity in the bike trailer.  She likes that just as much as having to peddle herself, and we get some great exercise. 

Oh–and Trinity has outgrown her crib!  She’s so tall and she was climbing out.  I thought she was going to hurt herself one of these days, so we decided it was time.  She loves her new toddler bed.  We’re also working on getting rid of the “stinky binky”– but it’s a process.  Apparently a very slow process.  She only has it for naps and night time right now.  

What else?  Hmmm…  Well, this Tuesday I am speaking at the American Cancer Society.   Gracie is doing well at school, she is learning to read.  The girls are funnier and cuter every day.  We are pretty much out of the baby stage with Trinity, which means we officially have two little girls.  I looooove the way the two of them interact and play and not having to worry about all the stuff that goes along with babies–the diaper bag, formula, sippy cup, special food, an extra outfit, special car seat attachments, baby teething tablets, binkies (uhhh…) and special toys.  Oh the stress of it is just too much!!  I can’t imagine having another baby!  Most women I know want more, but NOT ME.  God knew I could only handle two.  And two perfect little ones is exactly what we needed!  We are enjoying being a family with two kids. 

That’s not to say I don’t enjoy babies.  I just enjoy other people’s babies. Which makes my job at the Mother’s Day Out that much more perfect for me!   

That’s all I’ve got.  The girls and Chris are all going crazy and I need to go join in the fun!

Race for the Cure! Woooo! Pictures finally!

October 6th, 2008

Don’t hate, I’ve been busy.  First off, the race was super early on Saturday morning so by the time we all got home, we were exhausted.  I slept the rest of the day!  It was awesome! The girls are still trying to catch up on sleep…it’s been a crazy week. 

We exceeded our goal and I feel like we really did our part this year.  My goal will be $750 next year, I think!  I’m so hopeful that there will be a cure in my lifetime.  My girls…they won’t have to worry about breast cancer!  And once again, THANK YOU for all your generous donations!  I’m so excited that you guys rallied around us to help us raise money for a cause that I am so passionate about.  My family and friends are the BEST!!

Chris was not smiling becuase he didn’t have any coffee and it was REALLY early.  Gracie made goofy faces in all the pics, not sure why…oh, and Gracie started Crack for the Cure.  Not sure if it will catch on or not, but she seemed to be pretty happy with herself.  I’ll let the pictures show you the day.
