Hula Hooping and Other Happenings

I know it seems that I have gone MIA since my big announcement. Part of it was intentional so that I left it up for all to see for a few days, and another part was not so intentional. I got sick. Really sick, the kind of sick that made me feel like I was on my death bed sick.

I have returned from my death bed, although I am not all better yet, but at least I can function for the most part. :) My poor kids have been bored out of their minds this week. I definitely got docked many mommy points each time I turned on the tv and said, "Mommy's just too tired."

Tonight, they decided to show me their new "talent". Hula Hooping!

Isabella is surprisingly good and can keep it up for quite some time. The only reason it drops is b/c she stops in anticipation of it falling, if she'd just keep those hips going it would stay up.

Natalie on the other hand doesn't quite get the concept yet, but don't worry, because as she says, "She's a natural." She'll get it in time. Until then, she's so fun to watch!

Oh, and I mustn't forget. SOMEONE has a birthday coming up in the next week...
