Our weekend

We had a nice low key weekend. I need those now my body is just so tired and I'm only at 20 weeks makes me a little nervous for the next 17 but I'm hopeful that I can keep on trucking along.


Friday- We got baby donuts and then went home and just relaxed. I was exhausted from pushing myself a little to hard the day before so I relaxed after dinner and just put my feet up.


Saturday- We had a super fun activity planned with Aunt Halli. We went to a new ceramics studio in Medina and let Grayson paint some stuff. He chose a train bank and a doggie like Riley. He painted to the dog black and then got bored so I had to finish that ha! He then moved onto the train and had the best time. I let him just go crazy and do what he wanted. We got home just in time for lunch and nap (which he has been fighting but then will pass out 10 mins after I bring him back down stairs). I caught a quick nap too and work on some laundry.



Then we had bath time and Grayson is really into cooking so I gave him an old whisk and bowl and he made me chocolate bubble pie in the bath tub that night. He was so very proud!

Sunday- We headed to church and Grayson was looking like a stud. He wanted his hair like daddy so we threw in some gel and headed out the door. We picked up Gigi and Libby and B and headed to church. The kids are pretty good for the first part of service. They are there for opening prayer, and opening song and then they do a children's moment up front where Pastor Beth talks to the kids about Jesus and the power of prayer and where Grayson proceeded to wave to me the whole time then all the kids go down stairs to the nursery and have snacks and play or watch veggie tales. The sermon was really powerful on Sunday and she talked about how if there is a gap between us and God is because we put it there not because God did and wow I needed to hear that yesterday. Once church was over we dropped everyone off and went home for lunch and naps and more laundry. I got some more rooms cleaned out of garbage. I have been trying to get a garbage bag out once a week of just stuff that we don't need.


This week is pretty busy. And this weekend we find out the gender of out two little babes! I'm so excited!!!

Happy Monday!

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

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 ...

Update...

Things have been…..how do I say this different lately. We have been struggling to find our footing for months now. It feels like the hits just keep on coming. On February 10 th my parents were in a very serious (awful, horrible, scary) car accident. My father suffered a stroke (we found this out later) while driving the car. My mother was the passenger and they hit a telephone pole and then flipped (it’s an estimate because no one saw the accident happen) 6-8 times and landed on the drivers side of the car 100 feet off the road. I was still at work when I got a call from an unknown number and for only reasons that God knows I answered it and it was a young girl who had pulled up on the accident and had gotten my mom out of the car and was there with them while they waited for Mercy Flight for my dad as he was unresponsive. It was gut wrenching and horrible and I felt paralyzed. My mother was taken by ambulance to the same hospital they were Mercy Flighting my father to. We got...
