That is what we say when the kids do something they're not supposed to, and then they get "chair time." Carys is in "chair time." Who knows what she did, but I thought she looked pretty funny.

This was April 14th. Yes, I know. It's been too long! I'm getting used to life as a working mom. Blogging has been put on the back burner. But I'd like to try and catch up a little, mostly for me, since I treat this as a journal.
Enjoying the swings together.
Mouth stuffed with apple
He loves the slides
She eats anything and everything. :/
Someone is going to need a bath!

Daddy's Idea of Fun:)
I'm in the kitchen and all I hear is this giggling coming from Caedmon. I go out there to see what all the fun is and find Corey throwing a large pillow at Caedmon and Caedmon hitting the floor with the force of it. And he kept getting back up for more!
Daddy getting ready for the throw...
...he's hit! And hits the floor, but I didn't capture that on film.
And he cleverly dodges the pillow!!

Wow, my baby's growing up!
She hasn't had anymore teeth pop through - the count is still 6.
She's cruising now, along the furniture and pretty much anything. She stands on her own and has really good balance. I think walking may be around the corner, although she's not attempting to take any steps toward us when she's standing by herself.
The other day one of her toys was playing music (the angel, Aunt Christy :) ) and she was dancing to it. Pretty cute!
This morning, I wasn't able to get in the shower before she got up, so she sat in her little high chair in the bathroom, and when she started getting a little fussy, I started singing and she joined in!
She's definitely saying ma or mama and I'm still convinced she knows what she's saying. She's saying her own version of dada - she'll repeat after us, but it's not crystal clear.
She continues to exhibit major separation anxiety. She'll turn her head away when people talk to her. She's such a stinker. But last night I babysat two children, ages 1 1/2 and 3 1/2, and she was actually quite social with them, following them around and not needing me to be in sight! I was rather excited by this!
Sometimes she'll take off to one of the bedrooms and play, or get into things, all by herself. And she and Caedmon play together well when he decides not to push her around. And even then, sometimes she finds this funny. She's a tough cookie, taking it in stride when her brother body slams her to the floor! Just watch out Caedmon - her day is coming!:)
She won't sit still for her pictures anymore.

Corey's New Look
Sorry dear!Corey went to a 30th birthday party last weekend,
and the stipulation for the guys was they all had to have a mustache only.
Needless to say, Corey shaved the mustache off the next morning (Easter Sunday)
and he looked like the guy I married on our wedding day!
SPRING!
Keelie Update :)
I realized that in all my posts of the kids, I never post any life updates.
Corey and I have been looking for part time work to supplement his income. I had applied for a Census Bureau job and finally got a call and was hired for 4 weeks. I was so excited to have something...anything! Actually, I'm at my job right now as I type this - yeah, it's real difficult!:) This is the first year that the Census Bureau has set up Questionnaire Answer Centers in areas where they've had a low return rate so people can come in and get help filling out their form. My center has not gone over so well...I think I've seen about 3 people. I work two, eight hour days a week, and as boring as it is to sit in a room all day by myself, I'm getting paid and right now that matters! Plus, I'm getting lots of blogging and reading done!:)
Shortly after I was hired for this job, I saw a sign in our local coffee shop's window saying they were hiring, so I applied. I was hired 15 min after I turned in my application! I start training in a couple weeks.
I'm so thankful that my job will be right in town, flexible, and I know the owners and people that work there. I'm thankful that Corey's work is flexible so one of us can be with the kids - if not for that, an extra job wouldn't be feasible 'cause it'd cost more for childcare, and I wouldn't want to go that route anyway. And I'm very grateful for the extra income!:)
