Day at the Farm

We spent the morning at Peach Crest Farms in Stratford, OK with friends. Imagine 9 kids under the age of 3 (three sets of twins!!) and 5 adults amidst tractors, chickens, pumpkins, and lots of beautiful organically grown produce! George had the most fun watching the tractors, chasing the chickens, and throwing dirt clods. Pretty fitting since the meaning of the name George is "farmer!" Abigail had a blast picking beans, beets, and arugula and observing. We came home with a bushel of fresh veggies and exhausted toddlers! Thank you Susan for the personal tour!

To parents who cook...

How exactly does one do this task with one, let alone two, crazy toddlers tornado-ing around the house when you are the only parent at home?
What strategies have you found effective? I would like to cook again someday soon. Please share....

Happy Birthday Georgie and Aberdoodle!


Yes, we still exist. Life with two-year-old twins has been more nuts than usual. Fall is in full swing...I'm back to working at least 4 days per week, which means no more naps at home and g&a are full speed ahead when they hit the door until they crash at bedtime. No more relaxed contemplative computer time for me. Crazy busy after their bedtime and early to bed for me each night so I can make it to the Y at 5:45am. Yikes, makes me tired just writing it. Here's our sweet toddlers blowing out their candles prior to the sugar high...more pics another day.
