Show and Tell Tuesday- Resolutions and such

How is it already 5 days into 2016? I don't even know where 2015 went.


Today I'm linking up with Andrea for an introduction and some Resolutions



I'm Katlin

I write about being a wife and Mom and all the crazy in between

I'm married to my best friend 
Seriously he's amazing
We have been married for almost 7 years and I love every second of it. We are both strong willed and give each other a piece of our mind whenever necessary. We both have OCD but in different areas so that works out great. He take care of my heart and I take care of his. He makes me laugh on the daily and I fill his belly with food. We have very limited time together because of work schedules but we soak up what we can. Our marriage is work but in the best kind of way, and I would trade it for anything in the world.



I have the best (I'm biased) 2.5 year old son Grayson. He is a spit fire and already has signs of OCD (he gets that from his dad haha) He knows what he wants when he wants it but he has the most sensitive heart. He knows if he was being naughty and is quick to apologize. If he sees someone upset he is quick with a hug. He is advanced in his language and can rattle off something that happened 3 months ago in full detail that child does not forget.




And I'm 20 weeks pregnant with twins! Completely spontaneous ( no drugs used) and completely a surprise we found out that we were growing our family by two. After the shock and my uncontrollable laughing we are over joyed and so thankful that we get to precious gifts.


I have a pretty amazing family too that does nothing but support and help us anyway they can. I'm so so thankful that we have such a great support system to help us in this crazy life.


Our life is full of crazy, hard times, and a ton of fun, we lean on our faith in good and bad times and we just love hard and crazy


So that's us. 


Now for 2016 I have a few resolutions



One- Enjoy the moment

Our family is about to get rocked when we bring home two babies and so I want to soak up this time and make the most of all the moments I can. I want to focus on the happy and the great things we have going on instead of worrying about the laundry or dishes.



Two-Organize my house

We need to be extra extra organized with having twins. I have a list of all the rooms that need to be organized and I'm excited to get this done ASAP


Three- Grow my relationship with God. 

I love going to church, and I know this sounds like an excuse but with my husbands work schedule it's hard for me to get there every week. I'm hoping to start an at home bible study with my husband so we can lean into our faith together. Any couples bible studies I should check out?





I can't wait to see what everyone else has planned for the new year!

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 ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
