Well, it's official...

...There is a brother and sister in the house. This morning Athan was repeatedly tugging on one of Ellie's pigtails and laughing. Ellie was enthralled in the captivating Spot Goes to School, and finally screeched out, Alphie, stop! Being almost 10 months old, he does not know what that means yet.


And Mommy is wondering where has the sunshine gone? :) I think I need like ten more house plants and fresh coats of paint in every room. Honey, are you reading this from work?? :) I know I am going to be the crazy old lady that has the 30 year old fern which is included in her will.
Well, we will persevere with hide and seek inside, dance time after lunch (this is our new favorite dancing song!) Ellie loves it, I just put it on repeat and we dance as long as Mommy can make it! I think Ellie has this incredible, unearthly energy and desire to spin, a lot.

Well, if the sun in shining where you are please send it the Midwest way. Mrs. Pearlstein would really appreciate it! :) Enjoy your day and Christ!


Oh, I almost forgot...have any of you mothers received your baby's birth certificate and they misspelled his name? We did! But I guess that is what get for naming him Athanasius. That problem has been fixed and then I called the SS office to inform them of the change, they never received a request for AthanasiNs....mmmmm...after being on hold for a long time I was told I have to fill out a form, come into the office and present two forms of id for him. Even though the office of health and senior services said I did select to have a SS # for him. And as soon as you mention you had your baby at home no one knows what is going on. What patriotism I had is on the line here. :)
