keeping him posted

I try to send texts to Daddy throughout the day, telling him of our little adventures or quick photos.  I reason that it helps him not miss out on so much.  But really, it might be so that he will miss us so much that he hurries home faster.  Anyway, just in the last 24 hours, these are some of the gems I have sent...

Ladybug came up to me, cupped my chin, smiled sweetly, whispered "come here you!", nuzzled my cheek and then kissed me on the lips.  Rather romantic really.  We might want to curb that.

Butterfly was calling to tell you about our ride tonight.  She rode her bike, I ran with the stroller, 2.5 miles.  But we did stop for ice cream.

*a picture of Ladybug sound asleep on the couch, captioned "movie time, not so much."

We are playing Christmas morning.  We got our very own house.  And books.  And shoes. (priorities, rights?)

...And then we captured Santa Clause.

Ladybug wrote me a Valentine's card today.  She read it to me, "dear mom and dad, I would like to go camping because I love camping.  Please take us camping in the trailer and I love camping."

I was pretending to eat Butterfly.  Ladybug freaked out, "Please don't eat my sister! She's my sister! and I call her sister.  And she calls me sister back.  And I can't lose her because I love my sister."

*a picture of a beaming Lovely drinking from a cup in her high chair, captioned "no more bottles for me dad!"

Just before bed, Ladybug asked me, "can I keep you? cause we're a forever family yknow."
