Gone too long

I didn't plan on taking a blogging break it just kind of happened. We got super busy and time got away from me. Work went crazy too. We had a person from our office leave and rather than replace that position those duties were taken over by me. Finding my new grove has had it's learning curve. But I think I'm back on it.


Here are a few highlights from lately...


This child is 90% potty trained. I mean even when we put him in a diaper he holds it until we get to the potty. I still put him in a diaper for nap and bed time. He wakes up dry from nap but not bed time and that's ok. We went to the zoo yesterday and I put him in a diaper because I didn't want to be all " do you have to pee?" every 5 seconds. He went dry the whole time and told us when he had to go! So proud of him. Now let's see how he does at daycare.



We celebrated 6 years of marriage with a weekend getaway (post on that tomorrow) and it was wonderful and just what we needed. Love that man!



This weekend is going to be crazy we have a 50th wedding anniversary Friday, my Grandma's 90th on Saturday and then a picnic on Sunday. I'm tired just thinking about it.


We had a party for my Dad's birthday and it just remeined me blessed I am to have my family be so close. I love love them.



Plus I got to hold this nugget love this weekend (it's my cousins baby) and let me just say baby fever is so real!



Okay that's all I have for today but expect a week full of getting caught up!

Happy Tuesday!

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
