I KNOW... I know...
It has been FOREVER since my last post.
The littles are just about to return to school... SO.... .hopefully I will have some updates coming soon. Goodness I still have a lot of Disney pictures to post.... not to mention the endless amounts of summer pictures.
We've had a great but LONG summer!!! It is definitely time for school to start (for all of us).
I have enjoyed this time with the littles so much but my patience is wearing thin and fresh ideas to keep us busy are running out.
Not only have the littles kept me busy... I hurt my back (actually my bum... as the littles call it) about a month ago. Lots of fun summer activities (water parks, 4 wheel rides, hammocks that snapped, roller coasters etc) might have been the cause. Needless to say.....it made sitting, standing, and lying down all uncomfortable. After 4 weeks of physical therapy (and grouchiness) I am very thankful to say that I can finally sit at my desk without hurting like mad. Jeff was beyond patient and the littles were wonderful little helpers around the house... which I sure appreciated and needed!!!
During that time we have a new addition to our family... He is a teddy bear Persian named Hershey (because he is chocolate in color).
We brought him home about 3 weeks ago and he is super busy but the sweetest little guy. We all love him to pieces!!!
Hershey weighing in at 3lbs.
I woke him up.... which explains why his eyes look a little funny here.
MANY times this summer I have wondered (silently of course) if I am doing a good job at being MOM. I mean we have had A LOT of time together and I am sure I haven't been the sweetest mom in the world. One day... out of the blue... Lily walks up to me and hands me a penny.
I was unloading the dishwasher (for about the 1000th time this summer) and she said....
Mom, this is for doing such a good job this summer!!!! You've been such a good mom!
The next day she gave me 2 pennies.

How Sweet! I think we could all use a few pennies of encouragement throughout our journey of motherhood. What a precious moment:)
Well, I guess Lily answered your question about how good you were doing!! :)
Congrats on your adorable new addition! Good luck getting the kids ready for back to school! Can't wait to see pictures!
Aww, Lily! that is simply adorable. And your new cat is ever cute! Sounds like a super busy summer, hope you continue to mend, you poor Mama.

You made my day! Hershey is too cute for words. I love his face & personality! You are a wonderful mom and Lily proved it by her one & two-cents worth. How precious and sweet. Love you all so much!
Mom
From the mouth of babes! You had to just feel top-of-the-world!!!
I've never seen a chocolate Persian - so unique and totally adorable!
So sorry to hear about your back troubles, Tiffany; glad that you have recovered. Take care.
What a cute kitty! Hope he brings joy and happiness to your family, and doesn't eat bows and ribbon.
If your kid can do something as thoughtful as telling you she appreciates you out of the blue, then you've been a good parent.
YOUR GIRL IS JUST A SWEETY! HOPE YOU GET BETTER SOON....BACKACHE IS AWFUL.
Tiffany, We miss seeing you. Glad to hear all's well. I check your blog from time to time just to catch up. The children are adorable, and so is your new kitty! Enjoy the Fall! Love, Sarah S.
Of course your are a great mom, Tiffany!!! That was so sweet that Lily brought you pennies...awww... that penny had to worth millions to you! :)
Hershey has such a beautiful color to his coat!
I hope you are enjoying your mommy time now that school is back. Before we know it we will be wondering how another school year has passed...huh?
Luv ya!
