Today



So today the children have been running crazy around the house. It seems that it what kids are best at doing... running crazy. I can't quite understand how they can handle the stiffling heat. I sit in the house sweating!

We've been routinely going to the gym for nearly 2 months now. I'm enjoying it since I'm guarenteed at least 1 hour or more of solid me time. The children love the babysitters at the gym and I love that it is free! Who can beat that!? It is great to have time to focus on my own goals and thoughts while they are tended to.

Another favorite thing, of course, is our pool time. Since the weather here is in the 100's we just lather up with sunscreen and head on out. We spend about 1 hour in the pool before I make the children get out. By that point I'm wrinkled like a prune. Plus Jade is still at the "bobbing" stage and prefers to not wear her floaties or swimvest. So I am constantly keeping my eye on her in case she misjudges her footing. Jordan is a fish in the water. He is trying new ways to swim lately... sideways, like a dolphin, like a shark... haha. He's so creative and so addicted to his fish!

It is so much fun with these two. Never a boring moment from wake to sleep - and even in the night at times!

We'll be updating you all more regularly ! Enjoy!

The beginning.

As more and more time passes I just can't get past the blog cycle! I have no idea how long these things will be a "hot" way to update and keep connected but, atlas, I have fallen to their constant call!

So, here it is. The McFadden Family blog. Yikes, that is scary!

Since I'm just getting it together today I don't plan on posting a ton of anything really, just organizing my game plan-so to speak!

So, this is the beginning. The first of the blog posts from me. Be affraid... oh yes.... be very very affraid!
