So this is one of those rare mornings when I didn't shower until 10:30am. Yes, I am one of those people that sets their alarm clock to get up before her children in order to get in a shower and get dressed (and, on a good day, make coffee, check email, etc. BEFORE kiddos wake up). But, not this morning. Alarm went off, and, rather than hitting snooze, I turned it off. Pavlos woke me up at 8:30 (Mom, may I please have some oatmeal and hot chocolate? My carrots are still there (referring to his pull up... if the carrots disappear, that means he peepeed in his pull up... we are working on having him not pee at night... the reward: hot chocolate with breakfast... but I digress). Petros woke up soon after that. By the time I had breakfast ready, Pavlos and Petros dressed, and had done a few things around the kitchen it was 10:30am and I was unshowered. Today is an easy day for us... no school, just Pavlos' speech for one hour this afternoon. OH, and I am going out to dinner tonight, minus kiddos, with one of my very best friends (she's my other sister). Very happy!!! OK, the above pictures (which I totally suck at posting pics on blogger, by the way) were taken this morning... sorry, no pics of me in my pink flannel:) Have a happy Tuesday!!!
Finished reading: The Historian and Hannibal Rising (which I just realized they have already made into a movie to release this month or next month)

Beautiful photos! Beautiful children. Congratulations on the carrots being there, whohooooo!
What did you think of The Historian? Dh and I both read it, and discussed it this weekend with my Goddaughter and her husband.
Wow! You actually set an alarm and wake up earlier than your children?! Of course, my kid doesn't wake up at
8:30 like yours. I'd have to be up at 6 am to get a shower and dressed before he wakes. That wil never happen. Hope you enjoy your dinner with a friend. Sounds fun!
Your boys are so cute!
had a great time last night with Maria!
Cute pictures, and I love that the "carrots are still here." I'm afraid to say 10:30 am showers are a regular occurance for me. Good for you, getting up early routinely...I know several women who swear by that. The day probably runs more smoothly. :) Ah well, baby steps for me.
It took a while for me to get to this point... it helps that Pavlos has always been an excellent sleeper. I forgot to add that when Pavlos came in to wake me up, he brought my apron with him. I wear an apron, sometime, while making dinner only. My dad would be so proud of him:)
Mimi... i'll try to write about the historian at a later date. interesting book. we are reading it for a myspace book club (my mom, sister, two second cousins, and I'm not sure who else is going to read it...)
