Burke was feeling a little left out on Wednesday (Marjorie had a play date and he didn’t), so I took him to lunch on Thursday – just the two of us.
My first thought was “Man, this table is so small!” LOL
My second thought was “I should SO do this one-on-one thing more often.” We had a great time 🙂

Remember that ‘tween I mentioned in the VBS post? She’s my new mother’s helper *grin*

There’s a swing in the back yard of Grandpa and Nana’s house…the twins are almost too big for it, but they still have fun.

P.S. I’m a guest poster over at Who Says Eight is Enough today!!

Okay, so I know that June 12th isn’t way back, but I was grabbing some pictures off of my Dad and Sue’s camera and came across this one…

Cheryl over at Twinfatuation is awfully busy hosting all these great things… I don’t know how often I’ll do this one, but I figured I’d at least play along today 🙂
A successful back yard camping trip with Daddy for Burke and Maggie makes my Monday!

Burke and Maggie are attending Vacation Bible School this week. It’s a community-wide event, so lots of different churches attend.
…which means that I keep running into people from our old church. I’m having a hard time with this because I REALLY liked the people from our former church. It was the minister we had a problem with…we just never really let people know why we left. And now that they see me trucking the kids to VBS, they pretty much KNOW we’ve left them for another church, but they don’t know why.
The really nice thing is that the ‘Tweens we knew at the church have come running up to give Burke and Maggie big hugs…and they even chat with me a bit. It’s the adults who are giving me the stink eye – or avoiding any eye contact at all. *sigh* I suppose I could march up to them and say “Hey!! How are you? I miss seeing you…” But I’m such a chicken 😛
Anyway … the kids are loving it so far. At least…if I can get them to let go of me. Maggie has NO problem. Runs right in and faces the world with open arms. Burke, not so much. Day 1 was a drop-off in a smaller room and there were lily pads for him to sit on, so that was cool – mommy could take off no problem. This morning they were all meeting in the BIG room … lots of noisy kids. Burke did NOT want mommy to go. Luckily, his group leader had stickers, so she distracted him while I slipped out.
On my way out, I bumped into one of the said ‘Tweens from above. I mentioned to her that Burke was having a hard time (while trying to glance in the room undetected by him). She said she’d go hang out with him for a bit. Awesome. 🙂
Wonder if her mom would have a problem if I asked her to babysit for us…
