friday five

On a lurch this week Jilly switched her favorite color to yellow.  I realize two-year-olds are notoriously fickle but I really didn't see this one coming; I thought pink was around to stay.  

My bestie Lisa and her friend Lauren started a new blog called Money Hip Mamas.  They're both accountant extraordinaires and they post family finance tips, diy projects, and other goodies. Check it out!

Baby girl got her first shots this week- boo hoo
This week Bryan figured out how to speed up a dvd to double time.  I have mixed feelings- while it does make Dora go faster, it also makes it quite a bit more annoying.  Imagine hearing "we did it, we did it, we did it, yeah" twice as fast as normal.

 For the past month we've been with family and I've had a lot of help with these girlies of mine.  I started to think "psh, two kids is no big deal."  Let me tell you- two kids is so not easy.  After a 25 minute screamfest coming from the two children in the backseat of my car I came home and declared there was absolutely definitely positively no way we were ever having another child.  Check back with me in approximately 5 years
Happy Weekend!

Loved this post:) ScreamFests, I know them well and often end those days thinking, are we going to make it, am I sane, usually I want to answer "NO" to those questions:) Anyway, I totally feel you, everyday that I think we are doing good, a minute later something happens and I think, how does anyone have more than 3 children;) we will definitely be having a longer break between miss Jovie and our future children! Good Luck, it isn't easy but oh so worth it and it does get better. When it was just the boys, it got better around 7 months I remember and it was so fun when he started the one nap days. You'll get there, even though I know it feels like a L-O-N-G road! Your girlies are sooo cute!

Maybe I will keep baby where he's at after all...you are supposed to lie to me and tell me two kids are easy

Uh oh. If you, supermom, are having a hard time with two kids, I am officially toast in a couple months. Any chance you'll have it all figured out by then and can distill your wisdom?
Thanks so much for the shout-out! My favorite part is when you called me a bestie. :) p.s. when we do the giveaway a week from Monday, doing a link from your blog counts as an extra entry so you'll have to do the Rafflecopter widget so it gives you credit for that.
