library mom: systematically cataloging all aspects of raising two babies at the same time

2008-11-12

------------------------------------

After a tiring trip on the blue route . . .

Life has changed in big leafy ways, so please allow me to catch you up in three short sentences.
1. We bought a new house in the burbs.
2. We sold our rowhome in south Philly.
3. I acted as the real estate agent for both deals and it was very, very stressful.
Ok, 4. And the girls turned 2 in August and have started to embody the phrase the describes their age . . . the terrible twos.


So in a nutshell (ha ha I almost wrote buttshell) that is what has Been Up. And since I am getting back on track with re-organizing my life and new house, libmom will also resume its place in updated blogdom.

Anyway, here is a not-blurry picture of the ladies on Election Day:

And this is the view from my new, official home office:

Alot of things feel a lot easier now. And greener (see above).
