Simple

Simple........... that's how I like my nights during the week


I like coming home and eating left overs or grilled cheese and soup or let's be real cereal. I like when I walk in the door and there it is my world standing there smiling at me. My boys ahhhh be still my heart they make my world go round.

Someone (me like 3 years ago) could look at my life and scream BORING!!!! Yes my pre baby pre family self would have thought that too but now? Now I relish in the fact that I know what I'm coming home to.

On Monday and Tuesday's I come home to smiling boys, I hear stories of how they spent their day and that G helped daddy change is guitar strings. I get to sit on the floor and just breath for what feels like for the first time that day, all while my baby drools on me and grabs my face. I'm at peace, I'm whole again, I'm happy and I'm in love. I'm in love with the way G looks at us and scrunches up his nose and smiles. I'm in love with the way Michael talks to him and the love and friendship that the two of them already have. I'm in love with my dog I mean he is the bomb.com when it comes to Grayson. He lets him pull his fur and tail and he knows that licking his feet gets giggles so he will do it everyone in a while. He loves G and G loves him they are quite the pair the two of them.

The rest of the week well that's pretty amazing too. I love picking up Grayson from daycare. He can be anywhere in that room and once our eyes meet and I shriek   say HIIIIII Bubbie Lou!!!! His smile could light up the room he is so happy and my heart just bursts with love. We talk the whole way home to Daddy and when we pull in the driveway and get in the house we have our family hug. It's the best he touches our faces and just smiles or spits on us either way it's all good.

I like that at 6:30 him and Daddy head into the bath and I start my routine of getting jimmy jams and making is cereal and doing my little things in the kitchen like making the coffee and packing lunches. I love all this. I crave it. When we don't get to do our routine my heart feels a little sad, I feel off. I love my time with those boys.

So call me boring, predictable, or whatever else you want if that's what you think I am. I think I'm blessed, in love, and well just plain surrounded by amazingness (if it's not a word sorry).

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
