Mixed Berries

Our bestest friends from Indiana just left.
They DROVE to Idaho to visit family, sled (snowmobile) and hang out in their cabin for a week. We are but a rest stop on their way home.
We will take ANYTHING.

Such memories, so many top secret life altering things have happened between us. as roommates, as friends, as young and crazy alcoholic newlyweds.
(no office equipment was harmed during the process of these secrets ;)

We absolutely ADORE them and their family. I wish we were able to see more of them.
And Mike, I promise that in a few years when the kids are grown a little more and we find that young animal side we once had...we are TOTALLY hitting the gay bars.

13 weeks people. check it out. I am O-fficially in my 2nd trimester.
ok. lets go. let the party begin. let the morning/ ALL DAY LONG sickness end. wooo.
okaaaay GO !
(pausing for a moment....aaaaaaaaand nothing)
Well, I'm giving it a few more days and then I'm kicking some ass and taking names.
I don't know why...but it will make me feel better if everyone else feels worse :) ha ha

My political career is slowly coming to an end and San Diego is a mere 2 weeks away. NO KIDS !
Though a rough go lately my outlook is beginning to look up !

I leave you with a picture of my little rat bastards :) said with all of the motherly love I could muster the other day. ha ha

Oh my goodness, look at how gorgeous those kids are. And soon, there will be five...eep!

Are you going to San Diego on vacation then, diva? When are you going? Perhaps me and the hubster can take a drive out to see you?

Keri said...

I'm jealous about San Diego but you certainly deserve a nice trip (alone) away.
The kids are the most adorable rat bastard children I've ever seen! btw, what does that even mean?
:)

Jo said...

Syd, as, always a character. I can't believe you actually got those critters to SIT down. What did ya do, drug them?

Rainbow Momma said...

Adorable kids!! Love the pic. Happy 13 weeks! Hope the sickies leave soon.

DM & C said...

Stop calling those children of yours rat bastards, after all they are related to my rat bastard,,,but Oh my!!! How damn cute are they? I want to squeeze their little faces,,,miss you all

Cris said...

Sweet little RB's! Dontcha just luv em?
I sure do hope your sick's go away faster than Jen's...she was still puking in delivery. Hope she doesn't read this, I hate helping her remember how much fun it was!

Amy said...

Now that is a Christmas card photo!! I LOVE IT!! It totally shows that your kids have personalities all their own.

I assume you meant your political career is on a break, it can't be over. You have been the kind of representative we need. You have more fights to fight and your support team is going to continue to grow (I don't just mean at home either). Again, I am so proud of you and your voice. You've got mad skills!

That picture is SO them. You felt well enough to coordinate the outfits? That's a start. I really hope it gets easier from here, sister. You need a break.
My special little prayer is that the all-day sickness will end by the day you leave for SD - or a least go on hold for a few days. In the meantime, lie around and eat bon-bons - and anything else your little heart desires - and let the little angels do as they please. J can pick up, clean up, fix holes in walls, etc. when she gets home from work (-;

Carey said...

Yeah for the second trimester!!!! Whoo-hoo!! Yipee!!! Looking good :) Keep it up!

Now then... how's that for cheering? Seriously... congrats. It's always nice to be out of the first trimester.

Ahem - where's your belly shot???

Jen said...

Great pics of the RBs! You always have the nicest pics and I LOVE the monochromatic look. Very classy looking!

Stacie said...

Yeah for the 13 weeks! I do hope you start feeling better soon--how long did it last with the last pregnancy?

Love the picture. Can't wait until the babies are here too (in another 27 weeks of course)! :-)

Jen said...

Where are you going in San Diego? You know that's my home so if you need any tips let me know. How are the prenates doing for you? I just read your 3 wk. old email (never check the yahoo acct.). I'm so sorry you're still sick- there isn't much worse than "that" feeling. Ugh, I feel for you. I'm excited to hear Brit had her baby. Thanks for keeping me in the loop! Hang in there sista.

Kim said...

YAY for 13 weeks!!

The kids are adorable as always!

Cindibe said...

Thanks for having us!! We ADORE you guys too. Those kids are not as bad as you make them out to be. Yes, 10 years is a loooong way from those early days!!

Jennica said...

I, too am excited for San Diego. CAN"T WAIT FOR THE SUN (or at least NO SNOW)! See you there.

Happy 13 weeks!!!

Sara said...

The kids are gorgeous!! I, too, am jealous of SD. I might just pack my bags and jump on board with you!
