exactly what we needed....

thats what today was. i worked this morning but was out by 930, ran to target for a few things and stopped at kohl's, where i found the cutest and most perfect gift for the newest future member of the conorozzo family!! i'll be happy to share what it is as soon as i know dave and enna have received it, cant blow the surprise!! and then i was home, for an amazing day with my family.
i was able to get a few small things done this morning that i had been thinking about for the last few weeks. my project around the house has been eliminating excess clutter and slowly but surely it seems to be working itself out. little by little i am finally finding better ways to organize things.
after that it was off for a nap, for everyone!! frank and i included (i had laid down about 35 mins before the kids went down)...an afternoon nap is something he and i have not been able to enjoy in years, i think since well before there were ever kids. but thankfully we were able to get everyone down at the same time today and i was pleasantly surprised to roll over and see that frank was cuddling up next to me. we got probably close to two hours of much needed sleep to before cenzo decided to wake up and then we were able to spend some fun snuggle time in our bed with him. he was so cute, looking around our room, taking it all in - making it very clear to us that he certainly doesnt get to spend much time in there!
we enjoyed a delicious dinner together, cleaned up the kitchen as a family and played a game of memory with tuscan while the twins played legos at our feet. then it was off to the tub...3 clean babies later, the twins drank their bottles (1/4 formula, 3/4 whole milk!) and headed to bed so that frank and i could end the night with tuscan and a family game of mario cart. me and tuscan were a team against frank, who beat us the first round, but we beat the second round!! tons of fun, lots of laughs.
now im just gonna get a few things together for tomorrow and curl up on the couch with frank to watch the rest of the movie we started the other day...i wish life could always be this good, nothing compares to actually being a family!! i told frank he should talk to his boss about opening a breakfast place, i think i could handle being a stay at home mom if i was able to have dinner and a family routine in the afternoon! it really was amazing!

ok...first off....even knowing about dave and enna's baby (and the fact that you were shopping for them today), my heart sort of jumpped when i read the part about the newest addition. just an fyi...don't scare me like that again. :)

so glad to hear that you guys had a good day together. i know you miss them so much, but am glad that you treasure the ones you get. love you guys!

Thats funny! I'm doing the same thing with trying to better organize and eliminate/hide clutter! It feels so good when it's done! I love the way my house looks without all the "crap piles" all over the place! Have fun!
