Well it has almost been over a month since my last blog. Time flies when you are at the beckon call of two kids. Audrey been having a tough time lately with teething and has even bit me a couple times. I was quick to let out a loud 'eeee ouccch!' and give her a firm 'No'... Well Audrey has already mastered her drama skills. She is quick to turn on the serious tears whenever I scold her. There have been only a couple of times in the last couple days, but with how hard she cries I felt so guilty ;) That 'guilt' brought me to this post. I thought I should write down the Top 10 things I love about each of my kids (we'll leave my husband off the list for now until I yell at him and feel guilty) so they are sure to know!
