In the Thick of Things

While browsing around the internet today during the rare but blissful synchronized twin nap, I remembered my long-neglected blog. My extended absence from the blogosphere can be attributed to my two little angels who, to protect the not-so-innocent, I will dub Bonnie and Clyde. They were born happy and healthy and currently occupy about 23.75 hours of my day. I did, however, get a little break from them today to go to the dentist. (Notice the distinct absence of angelic choirs.) Temporary filling with a 40% chance of root canal in the near future.

My quest for self-improvement has taken a turn for the... different? While I still aspire to a clean house and a hot dinner on the table, I have had to throw the to-do list out the window and cut myself some slack. As a self-proclaimed type A control freak, this has been no small feat. I have, however, managed to work part time, care for my twins, bake my own bread, make my own butter, keep the kids, The Hubs, and the (now pregnant) dog fed, and still keep the household dirt diwn to an acceptable level. I recently baked a pretty fabulous fruit tart and am currently sewing a dress to wear to my cousin's wedding in May. (Please forgive the somewhat boastful nature of this paragraph. I feel rather entitled to a little back-patting.)

Well. Pardon the abrupt ending to this post, but Clyde is starting to fuss. And there's.... wait for it.... Bonnie yowling as well. Ta Ta.
