reading, organizing, shopping, momming too close to the sun. Home is wherever the Army sends us.
this is pretty much an everyday event around here. or something similar to this.
first-please note the line of random items. sadie made this line and it stretched around the entire house. oh yes it did.
lucy: oh look! a magnifying glass! surely my sister won’t notice if i take just one toy out of this line!
sadie: yes, i did notice.and i’ll take that back,thank you very much.
lucy: WHAT? did you see that? ohhhh the humanity. look at my little hands. they are so empty now.
my heeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaart is broken. BROKEN. sob.
sidenote: is it just me, or does lucy totally look like she sports a baby toupee? she’s a baby bieber.
sadie:sheeesh. okay. okay. have it back. you’re breaking *my* heart. i’m sorry lucy!
lucy: ummmm…did that really just happen? and the waterworks are OFF.
heck yes. i’ve got this all figured out. the crocodile tears are KEY!
and thus concludes a normal,everyday moment in the howell household. of course the person crying is interchangeable.
but the scenario is basically the same.
happy monday!

that we are feeling better today?
a little weak…but much much better.
it was a swift and merciless bug. started wednesday night in cate and ended yesterday with me. UGH. but we survived. 🙂
today we are hoping to visit bonaventure cemetery and wormsloe plantation. i hope that all of you out there are safe…there has been some terrifying weather out there. 🙁
have a safe and beautiful weekend-

the other day i was playing with the babies. the bigs were outside with j.
harper came running in SCREAMING “MOMMMYYYYYY! COME SEEEE! YOU WON’T BELIEVE IT!!!!”.
and when i came outside i didn’t believe it. she finally learned how to ride her bike without training wheels.
i thought this day might never every come. she is very cautious and unwilling to try new things.
very scared to fall. jimmy isn’t here often and it’s a bit hard for me to take all four on bike rides. HA!
but she did it!!
with lots of encouragement from her daddy:
a few wobbles:
and lots of smiles:
and i stood there with teary eyes snapping photos.
not only because she finally hit this milestone…
but because j was here for it.
it might sound silly, but he is not here for most firsts. so to see him accomplish this with harper. gosh, i have tears in my eyes just typing this.
and speaking of bikes and tears in my eyes for other reasons…i took my first spin class last night. i can barely walk or SIT today, but i loved it. i kept up and i am really proud of myself. i have a feeling this is really going to change my body and maybe my life.
so here’s to new beginnings and accomplishments. 🙂
happy thursday sweet friends.
xoxo
