I feel like John always sees the worst of us when we chat online. What is it about Skype that makes the sky fall? Today's scene: crying baby, broken dishes, toddler in timeout, messy house, hungry unshowered mama. By the time I pull it together John has been deep asleep for five hours on the other side of the world. So I blog the better parts of my day to give him incentive to hurry home to us;)
Who could resist these chubby cheeks:)
Rissy is wearing my mom's baby dress. I can't believe this is 50+ years old and still looks brand new. I love it and I am sad her arms are almost too chubby for the sleeves.
I change the words of The Napping House to Nana's House and use her animal's names. James loves being a character in the stories we read.
We've jogged to the grocery store almost everyday to fill up on fresh fruit and get redbox movies. It has been such a nice simple week.
Tonight we made homemade pancakes with strawberry jam.
Our Skype in the morning and my posts might not seem in accordance if a stranger put them side by side. John and I both know our life is more a mixture of the two. But I like the sunny side of the street for the blog. It makes me happy:) XOXO, Jess

I don't think I have said this before :-) My favorite blog EVER!! Well since the last favorite one--maybe I am just a little prejudice. I am a little worried though how I became the snoring grandma in the napping house--i guess if the shoe fits--hmmm! Thanks for starting my day with a smile-
P.S. There is a reason Dad and I don't Skype! That way I just have to clean and get fixed up on the day he comes home.
Honey I love our Skype sessions - the good, the bad, and the beautiful (you at all times). I don't need any incentive to come home. With that said, I love your blog while at home and away and appreciate your efforts. Please continue to blog.
P.S. This post was great!
