For weeks now I know I've needed to update the blog, but I sit, and try to think, and intermittently check Facebook and email, and then go back to the blog, and I sit and try to think, and I now surrender. I got nothin'. My brain feels like the size of a pea. I chalk it up to the cold January months, but then look at my iPhone temperature app and it says 61 degrees.
My 2nd excuse is that my kids are always doing something new and silly that I can't pick just one to blog brag about. Like turning around at a freshman basketball game that we were attending and catching Lilly with her pants and diaper down and her shirt up around her neck strutting across the court. She apparently failed to tell me that she was the half-time entertainment.
My 3rd excuse is that the incidences that were typically blog-worthy before are just a part of my everyday. Like last week when Di woke up 2 mornings in a row with a diarrhea-soaked diaper which she had managed to get off in the middle of the night resulting in early morning baths, throwing away pajamas, washing sheets, scrubbing her crib, then scrubbing the bathtub in which I accidentally turned the wrong knob in this new tub of ours and got showered on head to toe.
But my real excuse is that my mind is so consumed with this thought that I have no more room to spare for anything else: I am soon to have TWO TWO-YEAR-OLDS! TWO kids entering the 'terrible two's." TWO kids who have to be potty-trained. TWO kids who need to be transferred to big girl beds. And worst of all...TWO kids who have to get rid of their beloved pacifiers!! I am in mourning before the tragedy occurs.
In case you missed this video from well over a year ago, here is the sad proof that my girls' true love is their pacifier! I think I will seek comfort in the 83,500 people who have viewed this video!
