After hanging around on facebook and the blog world a little bit... it seems to be like there are a lot of super happy, perfect families out there. You get the smiling holiday card pictures or the facebook snippet where everyone is smiling with their arms around each other. And then you talk to the people and get the real story behind the picture. Oh, sister was pinching brother's butt so that's really more of an ow than a smile. Or the rosy cheeks aren't from touchup or makeup but from the screaming fight that we had getting everybody in to the car on the way to the photo session.
This blog is trying to be a capture of some of our life- the good and the bad. Sometimes (OK, lots of times) I whine; sometimes I brag. But I try and keep it real.
We were on the Cape for February vacation. Although the pictures look like we're having so much fun on the beach in February, it was really cold and Jack whined the whole time about sand in his boots. The 2nd beach of the day that day, Jack finally smiled (when the huge wave came and got me soaking wet up to my knees and, of course, I only brought changes of clothes for the kids). Oh, and the emotion captured in the absolute love of the whoopie pies is 100% real.
