back home

 

 

 

 

WA!!!! it has been so long since i have blogged. i have to say i really enjoyed not being on the computer for 2 weeks. i am finding it hard to sit here again and edit edit edit all the photos i take. i do enjoy it, but i enjoy lake superior swims with the nicest women ever and hanging out in colby WI with the dearest friend and watching our children play a bit more.
but after an 18 hour drive (UG!) we made it back. tulsi being home sick much of the time away. she would cry and say that she "well, i cant pick apples here and see sound of music here" or "i miss my good friends".
when we arrived here after me and jon with only 1 hour sleep it was 8am. tulsi first wanted a fairy dress on, and then quickly after that she wanted to go to amits house. amit was THRILLED to see her, but wanted to come here on the jumpy bed. annalee was HAPPY too! me and jon were TIRED!!!!! amit and tusli ran from one house to the other most of the day.
then we went to the sound of music and tulsi got to climb her favorite apple tree.
the next day she got to play with her sweet marcy who had been counting down the days til tulsi came back.

i will soon(ish) post pics from our trip.

happy birthday

 

 

 

sweet loving annalee is ONE!!! we were in wisconsin for her birthday. pics to share later.

annalee is such a great walker and giggler. she has not said too many words except all done, bye, hi, mama. to me she is more quiet and subtle. she is teething up a storm again and wants to be outside all the time like her sister. she will just cry at the door. she is big into climbing on chairs right now and wants to try to feed herself with a spoon, which only means that almost all food ends up in her hair...how does that happen?

tulsi still loves her and interacts with her and i am eager to see them be able to play more. especially cause tulsi just constantly yearns to play with others.

wigwam

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

annalee needed her afternoon nap and slept happily as i smashed rocks to sturdy the sapplings for the wigwam. we all felt more primal with having a woman laboring with a babe on the back.
