We got to head on home from the hospital yesterday afternoon as a family and the adventures began! I've never been so in love in all my life! Woke up to (okay lets be realistic..never really went to sleep lol) two sets of adoring eyes looking for mama during the night <33 best feeling in the world! Also side note: To all our parent friends, I GET it now. The sleep thing & all that..yep, we are officially a part of the club.

As I dual wield newborns aboard the Milk Cannon Express, all I can feel is utter (udder hehe) joy at how wonderfully full this life of mine is thanks to one man who has given me his everything and gone above & beyond every single day for me and the ones he loves Happy 1 Year Anniversary, my handsome husband!! And to many, many more! Love you, babes! Xoxo

Day 15 on Twin Island: Sleep deprivation has set in. We've set up camp in our common living area to keep the casualties to a minimum as the battle cries of the natives cut through the night, howling hungrily for our ample supply of white liquid gold. We will not let them wear us down. We will hold out. We will persevere! We will not mistake breast milk for real milk when eating our Frosted Flakes! For now...

Newly found mom perk #437: being able to revisit the classic rom-coms playing at 3am on Encore & TBS (ehem, Mystic Pizza & Say Anything anyone?? :)). Looking forward to catching the Breakfast Club with Miss Lily at 4am so we can talk about Emilio Estevez, his tight jeans and lessons in teenage angst lol

We made it! Babies first walk over to the store with mama!! :D one small step for mankind, one GIANT step for the Floreseses! Only thing we needed was 2 bottles, 2 binkies, 2 blankets, 1 stroller, 1 carseat, 1 Baby Bjorn, 2 costume changes, a plethora of diapers & wipes, baby sun hats, wallet, 1 hot mom in law, an iron will, keys & phone..oh and babies! No big deal! O.o

My new discovery of the day is that babies are the ultimate fat finders. No matter how fit one claims to be, a newborn's tiny fingers can and will find that lil' bit of extra lovin' left on a body by that burrito you swore you had worked off lol. In my case, both Lily & Flynn are enamored by pinching that peninsula of jiggle under the armpit that loves to muffin top outta strapless dresses on most ladies. How'd that get there??Good game, kids. Good game. Lol

This morning I greeted the birthday faerie (aka my mom in law) at the door looking super special (bday hair pic attached) after a bit of a long night with one of my favoritest of presents, Miss Lily Girl and this faerie gave me a green party dress to wear, pretty soaps to play with and an afternoon with my hubby at my favorite restaurant & a nap while she watches the kiddos. Happy birfday to me!!! Now to go put on mah party shoes!

So tired I went to the kitchen and started looking for my load of laundry in the cupboards and about 2 minutes worth of staring later I realized I wasn't in the laundry room so I made a sammich instead LOL. Good lord...someone replaced my brain with a sloppy joe! mmm sloppy Joe..*goes to laundry room to make dinner*

Hello, my name is Elissa and I'm.. *tear* a slave to my morning java fix. I neatly put my SBucks Via packet of iced coffee powder in a baggie a couple days back and each day I pour it onto a paper plate and cut in packets of Splenda to make it last longer... it's only one small step away from loitering outside of the Bucks asking if I can smell people's cups of coffee LOL *eye twitch* but you don't understand! I NEED IT!

First week at the new job (SAHM) almost in the books and I can officially say I LOVE it! My coworkers always have a sweet smile for me even on their cranky days, the cafeteria has all my favorite foods and the company car is the shizz I'm settling in great and have my first real project coming up called "Teething 101: The Wonders of Mastication x2" so we'll see how we'll do! almost Friday! Boy howdy!

I dreamt I became the ant queen (complete with fashionable scepter & sash) and sent my drones out for a log of creamy Velveeta last night.. LOL. Just marked 2 weeks of being dairy free so perhaps that had something to do with it? Mmmm processed cheese loaf..on the other hand, Lily is completely reflux free! Score one for the non-milky milk side! Mmmm milky milk side.. #lactoselover

After being up since 2:30 in the AM..my day has become somewhat of an acid trip...the walls in my house are wiggly, I have 0 equilibrium and I could've sworn the Simba head on the baby swing said "Good morning" to me. I guess if all I have to worry about is dancing drywall & cordial toys, I'm good! Now to get down to brass tax..,I have 2 gently used babies in a couple of colors for sale. Bidding starts at a grande iced coffee. Got a grande iced coffee..do I hear a venti mocha frappuccino?? Going once...

After a wacky day yesterday, my man came home, made my favorite dinner, gave me a long, luxurious nap and cleaned the whole house HAPPILY. None of this "I want you to want to do the dishes" stuff lol. Yep, I bagged myself a superhero! I got my mojo back baby! Couldn't do this crazy life without ya, babes <333!! Now to tackle the day and dem babehs!! /pounce!
September 23, 2013
...so there I was. Faced with a very important decision at the end of the day. Me time. I had it but only a fleeting moment of it so I had to decide... A cold, crisp bottle of Octoberfest? Or a hot shower to de-poopify myself (the kids poop I swear..>.>)? For the first time since college, I propped my brewski up on the shower ledge next to my luffa & leave in conditioner and had mahself a shower beer. Regrets? None. AND the kids woke up the second I turned off the water. It's now confirmed: I'm a fantastic decision maker.

Dang it!!! What is that secret cavernous spot under the very back side of your tongue where the crunchy points of chips sneak off to hide under and poke the ever living shit outta you until your forced to clumsily dig them out with your fingers and finally realizing you didn't even get the damn thing??!!!! /snort sigh... Just me?? Well then, let it be known rosemary & olive oil Triscuits are very good eats even if they do fight back! Nom nom nom ;D
