"Normal" is as normal does... right?

As we try to settle back in to our life,
everything feels so similar, almost comfortable...
but somehow surprisingly different...
I guess we are still trying to find a new "normal"...
.
But this is about as 'normal' as it gets around here!
STRAPPED tightly into their highchairs,
side-by-side,
giggling at my silly lunch-making antics...
like Peanut Butter & Jelly Peek-a-Boo.
.

.
These two little stinkers are like two peas in a pod!
B follows his big bro around all day, just starstruck.
Mimicking every motion and gesture. Repeating the inflection of every phrase.
Eager to be on to the newest mischevious adventure.
D eats it up.
Loves to be the center of attention. Loves to be adored.
Such a pair.
Oh, what would I do without the TWO of them!

This Afternoon's Craving...

It may be a mouthful to SAY, but

Mmmm... Edamame... mmm..!

Lately, Baby Bronson & I just can't get enough...

...
If you haven't already discovered them, I highly recommend!

You can buy them frozen in individually packaged servings at Costco and just microwave them

for a super-quick, super-yummy, super-healthy treat!

A totally filling meal in 2 minutes and 30 seconds... can't beat that!
.

And I don't go lightly on the salt... it's all about that Kosher Salt, Baby!

Mmmm...mmmm...mmmm!

We had our monthly Neighborhood Girl's Lunch at PF Changs...
As always, good grub, good conversation and good times!

Notice who has 2 children along...

Yes, TWO...

2 very tired, grumpy, not-wanting-to-sit-still-at-a- restaurant-children, I might add...

Hmmph... I am having daytime babysitting issues... sigh!
