Hello new week!
Confession: I stayed up reading about various homeopathic remedies and finding out who the latest pregnant celebrity is. Odd mix I know. In general I try not to get caught up in the whole celebrity gossip thing (uh, unless I’m in a long shopping line or waiting room), but when it comes to celebrity mommy’s my curiosity gets the better of me.
Anyways, I find I need to aim for balance in my downtime, even though I don’t always find it. If I read or look at too much mindless fluff then I really don’t feel refreshed or inspired afterwards, but if I read something educational, inspirational, funny or creative and artistic it’s a great pick-me-up and I think it’s time well spent — if my priorities are in line. Plus I usually feel inspired to want to exhibit some of those same qualities to the best of my ability.
What about you? Is there something you enjoy that you also feel like you need to be moderate about?

Have a great week and here’s to moderation!
I loved seeing pictures of the kids. Devin looks like he’s gotten quite tall. And I love the way Wesley and Preston show their every emotion, reaction and personality in their handsome little faces. So cute!
Thanks Feli! They sure got a lot of attitude…I’m currently reading “Have A New Kid By Friday” to try to get some pointers. How’s Dean liking school? Devin still talks about needing to eat more because he wants to weigh more than Dean…seems Dean’s his benchmark, isn’t that funny? Miss you guys!
Haha! How cute. Well, you can tell Devin that Dean is now a whopping 63 pounds.
I don’t know where he puts it all and he’s not even an extra chubby kid. Anyway, it’s a big number to live up to. Ha! 
I’m not sure if I should tell Devin or not…I could just see him running to the fridge to try to catch up, ha! I think Devin’s in the higher 50′s so he isn’t that far behind.
