Dinner


Scott is now in Austin and I have survived the day.  I'm becoming a pro at this single mom thing.  Both kids were asleep by 7:15 and my house is relatively clean.  And I'll go ahead and brag and let you know that I have sweet potatoes baking in the oven for Greta's lunch and dinner tomorrow.  
Yeah.  I'm THAT kind of awesome. 


Jones was really chipper at dinner tonight.  It might be due to the fact that he doesn't know that he has really weird hair most days because I am a) too lazy to fix it and b) unsure how to tame it.  




Jones and Greta are both sick with colds and a cough.  So wonderful.  Jones sneezed right before this picture and said, "I been sneezing all day long."  I just about died. 




And then there's this little bundle of broccoli.  She always prefers to feed herself and and will store everything she possibly can in her cheeks for as long as she can.  If I dare try to spoon feed her something that doesn't appeal to her tastes, she'll squeeze her mouth closed, shut her eyes and snort repeatedly.  She's a real charmer.

I just prepped some sweet potatoes today too! I'm loving sweet potato fries - cut, roast, freeze, bag. Perfect, especially for on-the-go.

Whitney,
I look back at those early years in the lives of our four kids and realize how busy it kept me when Denny traveled three days a week every week. They were so much fun even though I cried sometimes out of sheer fatigue. These photos will be helpful to you when you decide to publish your book, "Memoirs of a Young, Creative Mom" I surely do love you all a oodles! JuJu
