Bullet points kind of

I had a totally different post planned for this morning.

One where I talked about the emotionally draining morning I had with Grayson yesterday and about how hard motherhood can be.

And then I got up today and I got dressed and I looked over at the sleeping boy in my bed.

*sigh* I love him so much my heart hurts and that morning we had yesterday is wiped away.

So here are some random things......

-I went and saw my niece play in her honors band concert last night. Serious proud Aunt moment right there!

-I dream about pina coladas. Like hard core. They are delicious. And made with fruit so good for me? I know that's stretching it but I love them!

-Grayson is so smart. Every parent says this but he carries on conversations with me and when he got bit at school he told me who it was and that the teacher thought it was another little girl (who is the known biter) and that she went to time out not who really bit him.

-Michael and I are making huge changes to the house, which include moving out some furniture, bringing in some new stuff and a bathroom spruce up!

-I have one plan this weekend and that is to clean out my laundry room. It makes me itch when I go in there it is so disorganized and so that is all I want to get done

-I feel God so much more now and I think that is because I'm putting in the work. I'm praying with purpose and writing out my thoughts to God. Plus having church outside I don't know there is just something about being in nature and worshiping that moves me.

-My Grandma turns 90 in October and so we have some fun things in the works for her as a surprise! I'm all about planning a party and am so excited to see it come together. Simple but cute that is the look I'm going for.

-Thursday night in our house is going to be all about laundry and our monthly budget!

Happy Thursday!

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 ...

Friday Random

Sometimes it's nice to just write about what is going on. So here it goes....... I took Grayson to the store with me to grab a gift card. We can into Dollar General the store I have a love/hate relationship with. The isle's are so crowded and there are a million and one things for Grayson to grab. Needless to say he grabbed tic-tacs, a phone charger and certs all within the first 2 seconds of being there. Once I got him wrangled he asked for a "Dora ba-la-loon" (balloon) I agreed since he had gotten a super good report from school that day. And hey it was a dolla so why not. So we get the balloon, the gift card, and the cards I needed for father's day and head to checkout. Where he grabs to candy bars and laughs because he knows it's naughty. Anyway we get cashed out after lots of redirection and head to the car where he does not want to hold my hand in the parking lot because he wants to run! So I grab his arm and the whole time he is yelling "no m...
