Five weeks……

Has it really been a little over five weeks since Escher and Grey were born?  I can’t believe it.  How time flies!  Especially when one is sleep deprived……Things around here have been a bit crazy..but it is all worth it….

Trying to get anything done..like writing a blog post, laundry, cleaning or cooking..isn’t easy………I have to remember to be satisfied if I accomplish little things during the day.  Like getting a shower, sewing for five minutes and all the other things that I took for granted before the babies were here.  I also need to remind myself that is is alright not to finish everything in one day…it will all be there the next day and the next and the next.   The dust and the laundry can wait….babies are more important.

And of course, taking photographs is even more important!  Everyone always says the time goes so quickly….and it really does..I just can’t believe it has already been five weeks…so unbelievable…you wait for so long for your due date and before you know it…five weeks has flown by!

First Day of School……


Today was the first day of school for my children.  Quinn is entering middle school, 6th grade.  Tuesday is entering her last year of middle school, 8th grade….so they are in the same school together and riding the bus together.  Which is very nice..to have them both at the same school, at least for one year!

Hopefully soon, I can get a post together about the little babies entering the world…I just haven’t had much time!!

Happy Tuesday!!

Embrace The Camera….. Introducing Grey Frances and Escher Poe…..

Here they are…..Grey Frances and her brother, Escher Poe….born on Saturday, August 27th at 7:15 and 7:22 pm…in the middle of the hurricane!  Little Escher was born first and weighted 6 pounds, 5 ounces and his sister Grey Frances was born at 7:22 pm and weighed 6 pounds, 9 ounces!  More photos to come soon..when I’ve gotten more sleep!!

Happy Thursday and Go Embrace the Camera!!

This is it…..

Okay..this is it…..my last day of being pregnant!  Tomorrow I am going to be induced and hopefully have a “natural” birth…if you can have a natural birth after being induced.   I am nervous and excited….all at the same time.  I have been keeping myself so busy that I haven’t given tomorrow much thought.  I was having contractions all day yesterday…but I’m feeling much better today!  And I finished ALL 60 DIAPERS!!  I am so excited that I was able to finish them all!!

Today, I want to finish up a few more things..and then relax….just enjoy the last moments of being pregnant..maybe take some video and some photos…of my giant belly!!

Have a great weekend………I know I will………

Diapers…..and to the finish line…..

I’m got 60 diapers to finish in four days!  I’m 37 weeks and things are nearing the end at this point.  I’m getting a bit nervous, but trying to stay focused.  I’ve never been induced before, so it is a little strange knowing the exact date that I’ll be going into labor.  I think it is a good thing that I have all these diapers to keep me busy!!
