Nicknames and a the Honeymoon Phase

I'm really enjoying the babies as they are starting to be more alert and checking things out. I love talking to them and watching their reactions. They both have the biggest blue eyes. I wonder if they will stay that way. I keep coming up with new nicknames for the boys. It seems to be easier coming up with nicknames for Liam than Tommy. The nicknames for Tommy I come up with usually refer to his stature or his head. I call Tommy "Mr. Round Head", "my little brick wall" and sometimes just "Brick". Liam I call "Spike", "my little love bug", "Mr. Cozy" and his street name "L.I.Am" (LOL!).

I have a great story by the way. The other day, I heard Tommy crying and I was surprised as it wasn't time for him to eat yet - which is his usual reason to cry like he was. I ran in to see what was up and Liam was sucking on the back of his brother's head. Seriously. There was sucking noises and a huge wet spot on the back of Tommy's head. I think I'd cry like that too if someone took a vacuum to the back of my head. I wish I had a camera. There are lots of moments like that where I just wish I had a camera.

That's too funny.... Liam sucking on his brother's head. Even without the picture, the description is quite vivid.

My, how much they've grown. Been a while since I've been able to check in. They're looking so healthy and well... I thank God.
The nicknames are funny.

All the best,
Anna

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni
