A Great Day

Mother's Day: It was the perfect day with my own mom, but also with my own kids and husband! I feel so overwhelmed with joy to get to be a mom to the world's most beautiful and wonderful kids (and thanks honey for making me a mom!). I am one lucky chica! Here I am with my kiddos outside of the hospital on Mother's Day....

My dad: he had another 6 day stint in the hospital. He developed bacterial pneumonia. He is back home now but has to return to the hospital daily for IV antibiotics as his new stomach didn't tolerate the oral antibiotics.

Lola: FUN! FUN! FUN! She claps and waves bye/hi (with both hands), wrestles a lot with Teague (I referee), she thinks Teague is hilarious and she just smiles at everything/everyone. Such a precious little goo goo (as Teague calls her).

Teague: On Friday I am taking Teague on a bus with 35 other preschoolers and their parents to the Como Zoo and Children's Museum. In the words of Teague "You're not going daddy. You are going to work. Yoya is going to Tina's. Just me and Mama. We're riding a bus. We need to wear seatbelts. I am gonna bring my manoculars (binoculars) to look at the giraffes." It should be fun, yet interesting considering there is nothing on the agenda about "nap time" and he still takes a 2-3 hour nap daily. I will keep you posted!

Ryan and I: we had a nice night away last week for Ryan's birthday. We went to a Twins game and I got to sleep all night! WOO HOO! Lola woke my mom approximately 20 times and drank 24 ounces in a 4 hour period. No wonder she's so ooey gooey. Ok, and no - she didn't get up 20 times, but there are nights when it feels like it!! I also had a garage sale last weekend to get rid of all baby and maternity clothes and I wasn't sad to see one bit of it go. I made a nice chunk of change to make it worth my time, but I am sure glad that is over!


Happy little "Goo Goo/Yoya/Lizard" - all her names!



Not so happy about me trying to take his picture!


Happy little Lola and distracted little Teague with Daddy!



Yep - he is "sitting in Yoya's yap"



Here he forced her to lay down to "take a nap" with him. I do believe she may be in a headlock here.


Check out the super cool hat in the toy section and Walmart. Oh, and what do you think of his uber-chic rain boots that he can put on himself - the outfit is GREAT!



Here Teague is pushing Lola up an down the driveway.



It's dangerous play time at the Dusha home. Teague apparently needs a helmet - I really think it should be Lola in a helmet at all times while her brother is around!



And this is what happens when Mommy goes out for the evening with her friends. Teague found two PERMANENT markers and while Ryan went downstairs for less than a minute he wrote all over Lola's face with hot pink and lime green markers. She is mortified. Poor second child!

Sam did the marker thing to Grace too! Except they weren't PERMANENT! How did you ever get it off??
