Living in a Gulf coast state brings getting familiar with certain terms. We get our share of hurricanes around here and a common term  is “the eye of the storm.” It’s the center of the hurricane where the rain stops and the winds die for a short time and you can see right through to the top of it straight to the blue skies and the sun. It’s small and only lasts for a bit but it’s the calm in the middle of the storm. I feel like my evenings this week are the calm in my otherwise stormy week. I feel like I’m barely staying afloat. I’ve barely taken pictures this week. I’ve barely blogged this week. I’ve barely looked at my reader and I miss reading my favorite blogs. I’m dying for the routine that I know will come eventually. Last night I took these and desperately grasped for my old life that was just here last week.

And once again my silly girl made her appearance. Livie was none too pleased.

And since she just sat in Hannah’s arms screaming because it’s oh so horrible to have your big sister carry you, Hannah shot her this look which I’m SO glad I caught on my camera.

This was a genuine, you’re making me sick, kind of look and it cracked me up that I got it captured forever. Bad. Ass.

This little stinker has gotten in the habit of stealing Daddy’s Playstation remote. This is a huge no no in our house and yet she continues to smirk at us and snatch it and then run off with it. Since Daddy was in another room and hadn’t noticed yet, I decided to document this event because she KNEW she was being sneaky. She just didn’t care.

And yes, I’m still in love with her profile.

The eye is passing by and the storm is about to pick back up. I’ll be taking a mini blogging break since I’ll be out of town FINALLY til Tuesday and then probably drowning at work again for the rest of the week next week. But stay tuned because when I DO come back here hopefully by the end of the week next week I’ll have stories and pictures galore from my trip and of my girls after I get back home.

Next week is gonna be a good week. I’m going to make sure of it.
