Lord, help me to imitate Mary's
deep humility,
lively faith,
blind obedience,
unceasing prayer,
constant self-denial,
surpassing purity,
ardent love,
heroic patience,
angelic kindness,
and heavenly wisdom.
Amen.

Terrible terrible two

Isabella has recently begun this screaming thing when she doesn't get her way.Here she wanted the camera I was holding. I was trying to film her dancing, but when she saw the camera she wanted to see herself on the little camera screen, so I showed her but that wasn't enough she wanted the camera. Warning: you may want to turn down the volume.



But women shall be preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint. -- New American Standard Bible

purses

Isabella has just gotten into my purse.
She pulled out my Rosebud Strawberry lip balm, and opened it, stuck her little finger in it and stuck her finger back into her mouth and says, "Mmmm...good."

I'm still here (kind of)

I know I haven't wrote in awhile, but I have a good excuse.
Last night was bad. Madeleine woke up at 12:00 so I fed her, and then the long night begun she did not want me to sit down or when I thought she was asleep she would instantly wake up when I laid her down in he bed or next to me. So I walked around the house for 2 hours. I finally went to bed at 2:00 and at 3:00 Isabella woke up. I'm not going to go into the rest of night or early morning for that matter. These sleepless night aren't really helping my sanity. I feel so bad at times for Isabella. I'm more short with her. Kelly I don't know how you did it, I guess you just did what I'm doing and just did it. I feel like a bad mom at times because I'll get so frustrated with Isabella when really all she wants is more attention and play time with me. It's not until I'm resting my head on the pillow at night that I think about that story I read, "I kiss the hands that open the gates of heaven for me." I think I'll tattoo it to my own hand so I'll remember, along with "No more sugar!" Parker noticed yesterday that some one has been dipping into his candy, oops.
I must be more positive, I must be more thankful to have such beautiful funny children, and thankful to even bear children. Thankful my husbands cooks dinner every night.
Must go baby crying.

I was going to write something, but baby has begun to cry.

little update

Oh so tired. I think I've surpassed tired and gone to sleep deprivation crazy.
I'm actually on my way to go take a nap. My mother in law came over to take Isabella so I could nap. Maybe then I won't be so crazy. Then maybe latter after I nap and have some coffee I'll write what I've been up to. I just reread what I wrote, and I do sound crazy.
