Yesterday was the start of the Week in the Life project by <a href="http://www.aliedwards.com/">Ali Edwards</a>. This is a project where you document a week in your life - all of the everyday moments. At first I was worried about doing the project during this week since I just got back in town from my trip to Chicago last week and Cory is leaving for Afghanistan, but then I thought what a great week to record. I am sure when the project is all done, the boys will love to look through the album and see pictures of Cory and our last few days together before he leaves for deployment.<br />
<br />
The day started out really productive. I got up with Cory at 4 AM and started on things for work - I had a contract that needed to be reviewed and sent out before everyone got to the office. Cleaned up from dinner the night before, had a cup of coffee and just spent some time with Cory before he left for work... all before I even heard a peep from any of the little ones. It was really nice having a few hours to myself to get ready for the day.<br />
<br />
Here are a few pictures from the day.<br />

Once the boys were up, the quiet morning came to an end. Milly was off for the day and so I knew it would be a crazy day trying to keep up with the boys, design work and everything at Yates... little did I know how crazy it would be. After breakfast, Chase and Knox immediately wanted to play on the patio with their toys. I sat outside with them and checked email on the ipad. I think they enjoy just following each other and Chase loves how Knox follows him everywhere. It is almost a game of tag. Knox then decided to sit in one of the children's patio chairs and he was waving to me. He constantly gets out of the chair and then sits back down... its a never ending cycle. For some reason he lost his balance getting out of the chair and he fell down. Poor little guy had a huge bump on his forehead and a scuffed nose. I felt so bad for him. I hate it when he gets hurt because he can't really communicate to you other than crying. So I held him for a while with ice until he felt better.<br />

Riley was so excited to play on the Nintendo DS for an hour. We have really been limiting this toy this summer and trying to play outside more. Wills colored for a while and Chase watched Mickey Mouse. For lunch we kept it simple with a frozen pizza. Cory came home for the day after lunch. We needed to finish up the yard work from the weekend so while Cory mowed the backyard, I took the boys to the pool. They love it! Chase has finally learned how to keep his feet underneath his body and dog paddle around the pool. I think he enjoys the freedom of not having to sit on the steps anymore. Knox on the other hand was just content walking around the pool with a pair of goggles.<br />

I noticed Chase wasn't acting normal, so I pulled him out of the pool (thank goodness for the handles on the back of the life jackets) and he started to have a seizure. At first I thought it was going to be ok, just like the previous ones we have been having, but this one lasted more than 5 minutes. After about three minutes I called 911 and the ambulance came and took him to the hospital. So Chase and I spent the rest of the day in the emergency room. He was fine after a few hours. It just took him a little longer to recover this time since the seizure was longer.<br />

Cory and the boys picked us up around 6 and we picked up KFC on the way home. After dinner the boys went to bed. It was definitely a long day. I was ready to get into PJ's and crawl into bed.<br />

The boys absolutely loved it! Matt and Rachel went out of their way to make it a memorable trip. They set up a private meeting with Mickey Mouse, the boys were picked out of the crowd for Jedi training, and we had reserved seats for the Fantasmic show.<br />

Riley and Wills loved riding the rides, especially Star Wars Tours. Chase and Knox had fun watching the parade on Main Street and waving to all of the Disney Parade characters. Goofy ran up to Chase and at first Chase was startled but then he laughed and squeezed his nose. WHile we were watching, Knox walked away and when I turned around, he was sitting on the ground behind me eating popcorn that someone had dropped.<br />

When Riley and Wills were waiting for the Jedi Training Show to start, they were so excited. They were hoping to get picked to participate in the training. It was so cute. Wills was so serious. You could tell he was listening very carefully and could not wait for his turn to fight Darth Maul.<br />

We then went over to the La Brea Tar Pits and looked around the museum. Riley and Wills loved it. They could not believe that the fossils belongs to real animals at one point in time. They had fun walking around the atrium. It was open to the roof and you were allowed to go up to the roof and look down on the atrium. There was a family of turtles and we must of watched them for 10 minutes. Riley didn't want to leave them.<br />

The water was warm so there were no complaints. Chase learned to swim by himself with a life jacket on instead of flopping around. He was able to keep his feet underneath him and dog paddle around. It was so cute and he was excited to be able to be in the water without holding on to someone.<br />

Riley and Wills actually spent more time in the pool than sunbathing... they were so excited to have warm water. They jumped in the deep end and played games to see who could hold their breath the longest or swim the fastest.<br />

Knox on the other hand really didn't want to get in. He just wanted to sit in his beach chair and eat Froot Loops. It is no wonder that he weighs 26 lbs. and he is in the 75th percentile for weight.<br />

Cindy also bought them each a pair of goggles and they had a fun wearing them. I was surprised that Chase would put them on, but he loved them!<br />

They had a great time playing on the ship in the control room, sitting in the captain's chair, and seeing Uncle Ervin's room. They didn't want to leave to go to dinner.<br />
<br />
We went over to California Pizza Kitchen and the boys had pizza of course. We had a great time and they are still talking about how big the ship was and going to back to visit. I was glad we were able to see Uncle Ervin especially since the boys have not seen him since we went to Maine for their baptism 3 years ago. It was a great visit!<br />

He left on Sunday for a two week trip to Afghanistan and we are ready for him to come home. He has called twice and unfortunately we have missed his call both times. Tonight the boys kept asking me to replay the voicemail he left so they could hear him. It was so sweet. He should be back on July 1... we can't wait!<br />
<br />
This week has been pretty quiet... Knox has not been feeling well. He has a sore throat and an awful cough that has kept him up the last few nights. Today Chase kept poking him and squishing his face. He kept pushing Chase away and he just did not get the hint. So finally Chase poked him again and this time Knox bit his finger. It is the first time that Knox has bitten so hopefully it will not be a trend, but Chase did leave him alone after that. Here is a picture of Knox playing with one of his favorite toys. It lights up and makes noise.<br />

Chase had to have blood work done on Monday for his appointment tomorrow. He always does really well, but poor thing has bruises on one of his arms since the nurse could not get it done the first time. She had to keep fishing in his arm to get it. I felt horrible. Finally I asked her to try the other arm or let someone else try. He was a little trooper though it did great! Here are a few photos from the waiting room.<br />

I haven't done a mini album in a long time, but last night I was looking over these pictures and I wanted to put them in a book. I really love how it turned out. We had such a great time Memorial Day weekend and I definitely want to share those moments. I am so glad that Dad and Aunt Georgia were able to spend the week with us.<br />

They are so excited about summer starting however they will miss their teachers and friends!<br />
<br />
Wills had his Kindergarten Promotion this morning... He was so cute. I cannot believe how fast time goes by. I feel like he was just a baby and now we is moving on to first grade. They sang two songs in the cafeteria for everyone. Here is their school song, "I Want To Be an Eagle" and it was written by their music teacher, Mr. Lawhead.<br />

Riley and Wills helped me make these cute teacher planners for the end of the year gifts. Both Ms. Davis and Mrs. Fisher loved them. We also got them cute borders for the bulletin boards and a small clutch from my favorite store, Coach.<br />

I can still remember how excited I would be when we opened a new box of crayons. Now with technology they don't even need crayons to color pictures. Check out the lemon tree that Wills drew today.<br />

Last month we bought a Wacom Intuos 4 Wireless tablet. I thought it would be great to use for scrapbooking. It didn't even cross my mind that the kids would be using it all of the time. Wills and Riley ask almost everyday if they can use it to color on the computer using a program called Adobe Illustrator.<br />
<br />

They love to use it to draw pictures and if they make a mistake they just click undo. Since you use a pen instead of a mouse, it is just like drawing with a crayon. Then I just turn the file into a jpg and we are able to email it out to everyone or print it to hang on the fridge.<br />

I am amazed at how quickly they learn to use the program. It is almost intuitive for them. Absolutely AMAZING! I wish it would have come to me as quickly. I guess that is the difference between generations. I wonder what technology they will come up with next.<br />

Last night I did a little scrapbooking and created this fun layout with one of my favorite pictures from last week. THe boys had such a great time with Dad. They can't wait for him to come back out.<br />
<br />
Journaling: Dad had a great time with Knox at the beach. I wish we lived closer so they could see him more. THey love spending time with him. It's amazing... it feels like yesterday he was playing with Charisse and I on the beach and now have children of our own.Follow My Hearthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01960449360843578189noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8592190704988588517.post-76537676371462909642011-06-09T11:28:00.000-07:002011-06-09T11:28:01.177-07:00Albanian Cooking - GjelleToday is a cloudy, cool day in southern California. I thought it would be perfect for a stew to warm things up. Nana used to make this for Charisse and I all the time when we were growing up. When Aunt Georgia was here last week, she gave me the recipe. I thought I would share it with you.<br />

AWESOME!So the day finally arrived for us to go to the Star Wars in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl. The boys were so excited and could not wait! Dad, Auntie, Cory, and I took Riley and Wills into LA earlier in the afternoon so that we could catch up with Matt and Rachel. We met at the Grove in the farmer's market. The food was great!<br />
<br />
This was the first time I had seen Matt and Rachel since the boys' baptism three summers ago. Rachel brought the pictures from their wedding this past fall and we had a great time with them. We are hoping they will come out and visit more this summer!<br />

After dinner, we headed over to the concert and it was amazing. The Hollywood Bowl is an open amphitheater that seats about 18,400 people and the event was sold out. I have not seen so many people in one place since football games at Virginia Tech!<br />

The concert was nothing short of extraordinary! The music was flawless and the light show was amazing. They had the actor who played C3PO narrate the show. Everyone was surprised to see John Williams there and he conducted the last song!<br />
<br />
There were quite a few people dressed up in costumes and they looked so realistic.<br />

I will be sad to see them go tomorrow. However we really enjoyed the time we had. We went to Geoffrey's in Malibu on Thursday night... what a great experience! The view was gorgeous and food was excellent. I am not the biggest fan of mussels however the appetizer that they prepared were delicious. The drive along the Pacific Coast Highway was just beautiful.<br />

</div>On Friday, we spent the evening with Brian and Joanie Malley... We were excited to see them. Brian was my Uncle Paul's best friend growing up and Aunt Georgia was over joyed to see them. Dad hadn't seen them since Aunt Georgia's 80th birthday. It was great for us to connect with close family friends so that we will have support and friends in the area. Today we went over and for a barbecue and to go swimming. The boys had a great time in their pool and hot tub! We can't wait to catch up with them again in the next few weeks!<br />

Riley and Wills have been asking everyday for a week when they would arrive. We have been spending most of our time at the house however we have made several trips to the beach, Santa Barbara, and tonight we are planning on having dinner in Malibu overlooking the water.<br />

Here are a few pictures from the Farmer's Market.<br />

I can't believe it! His birthday is on Tuesday... it doesn't feel like it has been a year. I feel like he is growing up so fast. I took this video yesterday morning. Yea Knox! We are so proud of you...<br />

I came across a layout by <a href="http://aliedwards.com/2011/05/studio-ae-blog-hop-may.html">Ali Edwards</a> and I absolutely loved it. The circles were such a cute idea. So I thought I could adapt this idea and create a layout that highlighted circles too.<br />
<br />
I made this layout for Charisse for Mother's Day... I am going to frame it in a black high gloss frame and I think she will love it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-p6xq54V25lA/Tcq2pWNvaKI/AAAAAAAAAPw/tCx-ejx-vU4/s1600/You+Are+Anything+But+Ordinary.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-p6xq54V25lA/Tcq2pWNvaKI/AAAAAAAAAPw/tCx-ejx-vU4/s320/You+Are+Anything+But+Ordinary.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
Journaling: It is hard to believe that we have grown up and have children of our own. It seems like yesterday that we were playing at the cottage on the beach collecting sea glass. Now here we are. You have grown into a strong young woman and a great mother. I am so proud of you and how you have raised your two beautiful girls. I always knew you would do great things. Charisse you are anything but ordinary... I love you.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-540afGCuKp0/Tcq2jIkbJsI/AAAAAAAAAPo/qyaQ1BB6jzQ/s1600/You+Are+Anything+But+Ordinary+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-540afGCuKp0/Tcq2jIkbJsI/AAAAAAAAAPo/qyaQ1BB6jzQ/s320/You+Are+Anything+But+Ordinary+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
While I wasn't brave enough to use paint, I did use the Cricut Cartridge Mother's Day Bouquet to cut out perfect 2" circles from various patterned paper and I even used the negative in the layout as well. I also love the wings and the iridescent circle paper that I put just below the picture. It gives the layout such a playful look...<br />

At first with this move, I was worried about working from home... however I think that this move was a blessing. I have been able to spend every day with the boys. I have lunch with them and I am able to be there for the important and everyday moments - everything from Knox's first steps to seeing the boys get home from school and helping with homework. It is hard to believe how fast these moments go by and when I look back on their childhood, I will be happy to say I was there.<br />

Cory and the boys made breakfast this morning. Then we spent most of the day playing in the yard and watching a few movies. The boys got me the cutest card... I just had to share it with you.<br />

I have always been fascinated with London. On the cover is a picture I took of Big Ben.<br />

This is a picture of our hotel, the Langham Hilton in downtown London. We were right around the corner from all of the shopping and I felt like we were in the middle of the city. The hotel was gorgeous!<br />

I put a picture of the view from our hotel room. You could see a beautiful park just outside our window. We also went on plenty of tours of the city. My favorite was a trip to Kensington Palace where Princess Diana's lived. It was much larger than I expected. The grounds were gorgeous and there were beautiful flowers and landscape everywhere.<br />
<br />
We visited several other places as well... we had a private showing of the crown jewels, toured the Tower of London, had lunch at the Ritz and we rode the London Eye. The view was spectacular!<br />
<br />

We finished up the week with a bus ride to the theatre for a showing of Mama Mia. This was several years before the movie and it was awesome!<br />
<br />
It was a great trip and I was so grateful that my dad took me. It definitely was a trip of life time and I would love to go back.Follow My Hearthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01960449360843578189noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8592190704988588517.post-16045726611974388882011-05-01T21:05:00.000-07:002011-05-01T21:05:43.114-07:00Another Great Sunday...Today was a beautiful day... we worked in the yard all afternoon and we were able to go in the pool. It was still a little too cold for me, but the boys loved it! Knox only wanted to put his toes in. It was a little chilly for him too. Chase had a great time swimming with Cory in the pool.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So today we weeded most of the flower beds in the backyard and then we added mulch to help keep the weeds out. I sprayed ground up a week ago, so hopefully they will be weed free for at least the summer. Cory made three trips to Lowes and we bought 40 bags of mulch. Good thing they were on sale for $2.25 a bag. We still have 11 bags left, but we have a few more flower beds in the backyard and 3 in the front yard to do. After today, the yard looks 100% better. I can't wait till it is all done and we can just sit outside and enjoy it!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It has two large playground areas that are shaped like pirate ships. The boys had a great time. Chase ran around the park, climbed up and down the stairs, and slid down the slide several times. Knox spent most of his time in either the baby swing or playing on this turtle they had. Riley and Wills played tag and hide and go seek. They were constantly running around. It was so cute.<br />

Chase has this cute sock puppet. He will look around and find a random sock (so Mr. Sock Puppet changes everyday) and wears it on his hand. He then plays with it like a puppet. He talks to it and the puppet talks to both Milly and I for several minutes almost everyday. It is adorable what children are able to come up with just a little bit of imagination. This keeps him very entertained in the mornings!<br />

I just always thought I would be healthy and have a high metabolism. However now that it has been 8 years since I graduated and I have had 4 children, I feel like it is time for a change. I need to make healthy choices and start taking care of myself.<br />

So when we moved to California, I joined a gym and I am ashamed to say that I have only been a few times since August. I always find excuses not to go - work, laundry, the boys, time, yard work, or just being tired... so I decided to put aside the excuses and go out for a run tonight. It has been a long time since I put running shoes on to actually go running.<br />
<br />
While I only ran half a mile, it felt good to be running. I got my heart rate up and I could feel my muscles burning. So maybe tomorrow, I will run a mile... I guess everyone has to start somewhere.Follow My Hearthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01960449360843578189noreply@blogger.com0
