*an early morning snuggle with an under-wear only clad, warm little body. (that would be E as N would never, ever go to bed without pj's from head to toe!) he was very, very snuggly. i wish i could bottle those moments. i had to pull myself away to start the day. ahhhh....but what a great way to start.

*whoa. i'm looking at my planner and how did this happen? crazy-busy summer? that was not suppose to be part of the equation? within the next 3 weeks only: 13 more baseball games, a week of baseball camp, two-three weeks of swim lessons, a week of VBS, an invitation to another week of VBS, art camp, a Fun Day, an out-of-state family reunion, a wedding (to photograph), 12 more photography sessions, a summer reading program at the library and then the regular stuff....md appts, haircuts, church, etc, etc......i need to re-evaluate to re-vamp. i'm tired already. i just want sprinklers and sno-cones. :) where is my eraser?

*evan walked in with his hair split down the middle of his forehead. i thought, 80's? he quickly informed me that when he parts his hair like that.....he looks like a jonas brother??

*my noah has become a sleepy, sleepy head. welcome summer!

*noah is also eating me out of house and home. is this what they meant about having boys? i never thought it would hit my picky, little eater.

*i unpacked my new sewing machine this morning. the one i purchased in december. i'm very, very intimidated. why in the world did i not take home ec? SD - do you do tutorials? my first undertaking will be napkins. simple, simple cloth napkins. they may be finished by thanksgiving?

*noise: this is what i am currently hearing - 6 puppies barking like mad, a mama dog barking occasionally, an unwatched television playing, a washer, a dryer, a dishwasher, mom and evan playing a very loud stompin-spider game with a bonus of giggles from both, a steve wiggins (my bil's sweet brother - great music guys!) cd playing in my office.....overload maybe? and, no scott is not at home. and, the blinds are open. :)

*playing on the swingset.

*yummy chocolate ice cream and a low-flow (??) sprinkler.

*evan stumbled in my office today collasping on the floor. he told me he was very sick because he had not "got enough snuggles today." emergency treatment was rendered. :)

*a meal of mac & cheese in mismatched bowls with noah as evan slept in the floor. the true definition of fine dining! :)

*are anyone else's kiddos fighting like tigers and bears. we have surpassed cats and dogs. i remember from past years, that the transition to summer will.get.better.
right?

*off to get slushie's. i mean play baseball!
