I can't come up with a snazzy title to this post. How do I title my first post in four months. Four months that have been filled with busy and quiet times, stressful and blissful times, kids who won't stop growing, first and lasts. It has been a busy time at Casa TwoHandsFull.

D2 is growing like a weed. This child does not slow down. He barely stops moving, even in his sleep. He is my happy, playful, musical child. He sings to himself constantly. I keep trying to get it on video but he stops as soon as he notices I am recording.

M has learned how to swim and love water. At the beginning of the summer we had trouble getting him into a pool. Just this past weekend at our annual cottage visit he spent the better part of Sunday in the lake. The LAKE for goodness sake. He loved it and the weeds didn't bother him at all.

D is still my D. Aptly described by some class mates, D is our Gentle Giant. He decided that he wanted to return to Hockey this year and had a week of Power Skating camp in July. I haven't seem him so happy in a long time. If only he was able to focus that much determination on math and English he would ace school :)

I started to run again. I found a willing running buddy at work and then lost her 3 weeks later. Unfortunately for both of us her work schedule this summer won't allow for running over lunch (or any lunch at all). We will regroup again in the fall but it has been hard for me to motivate myself to run alone. Today I plan on going out. My first time in almost 3 weeks.

I plan on checking in here more often now. I hope all is well with you guys. Drop me a comment and let me know what is new in your worlds.
