Have I Told You:
Reichen chipped my front tooth while trying kiss me.
Reichen and Latham have a serious case of diarrhea. And I’ve been collecting stool samples for tests. And changing diapers and underwear every 30 seconds. And running never ending loads of laundry. And incessantly disinfecting our home.
I totally flaked on a friend’s play date. I thought the boys and I were supposed to be there Thursday at 11:00am, not Wednesday at 11:00am. And to make matters worse, I didn’t even realize my mistake until yesterday.
We have not sold our home even though:
- it’s been on the market 6 months.
- we’ve lowered the asking price $40,000.
- we’ve painted the entire interior.
- we’ve replaced our awesome light fixtures with boring ones.
- we’ve put in new landscaping.
How impossible it is to keep a house in ‘show’ condition while raising 2 toddlers.
David drives 6 hours a day, nearly every day, for work while we wait to sell our home.

Okay. Okay. Okay. This concludes the whining portion of this post. Here’s the part where I tell you who won The Great Give Away. Shall We? Let’s.
Andrea, you’re the winner! I’ll be e-mailing you shortly with more information, In the meantime, here’s how Andrea wants to customize her new Sigg Water Bottle from Cafe Press.
“I would definitely put a picture of my family on it so that no matter where I am or no matter where they are, I can always “see” them, especially since my oldest started Kindergarten.”
Thanks so much to everyone who entered!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have more stool samples to collect. Lots more. Have I told you the doctor wants 7 vials full of fecal.
Help. Me.
Oh sweetie! All my deepest empathy.

Obviously I do not envy your current situation, but…I’m so happy about being the winner! Wahoo!! Thank you so much. I’ve already been contacted by Cafepress. Now it’s just choosing the perfect picture. Thanks again!
I don’t know how you are doing this.
I have been thinking about you a ton – I can’t believe that you have done so much to your house, hopefully the right person will come along soon.
Poor David, 6 hours is insane and in humane and poor momma with no David.
I hope the boys feel better soons too.
Too much, too much.
Thinking about you.
Oh Girl! I have been there and feel for you…wish I was closer; I would be happy to help you in any way I could. Take a breath, grab a cup of coffee and just sit for about 5 minutes. Take a few minutes for yourself, collect and carry on.
You are such a good Momma and wife. And you rock as a person. Enough said.
