Crazy week

I haven't updated in a week, I know. I apologize. It's been a little insane around here. I spent the week trying to make some pretty important phone calls (did you know it's nearly impossible to get through to any kind of military administrative offices during their insanely short business hours?), registering the kids for childcare on this side of town (because sometimes Mommy needs a break and can't drive 30 minutes one way for 4 hours of daycare), working on my table, playing with the duo, and birthing a baby. Well, I didn't birth a baby obviously, but I helped BFF.

Here is my beautiful dining room table, all sanded down and stained. All it needs now is a coat or two of satin wood sealer, and for me to find the time and energy to get out there and apply it.

I think this might be my favorite picture that I've taken in a very long time. There is nothing better than the look on a mom's face when she meets her child for the first time. Needless to say everyone in the room was crying at this point. This is my best friend, and her newest daughter, taken just seconds after she was born.
