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!

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
