Trifecta of development in a short 30 seconds tonight!  We had just finished weighing and measuring Jonah for his 9 month stats and I was plugging them in to an app on my phone.  Ty and I were sitting there talking and Jonah got on all 4’s.  I quickly called Jase and he came running.  Right after he came in the room Jonah started crawling on all 4s.  He’s been arming crawling (he’s so fast) for several months but has had zero motivation to use his knees.  He then pushed himself up and in to a sitting position and proceeded to clap for himself when he was done!  3 new tricks in 30 seconds, it was THRILLING!  So, so exciting!  […]

I haven’t been picking up my good camera very much at home lately.  Instagram and the ease of it has taken over in our busy lives.  I miss my 365 project and all the beautiful moments my big camera hasn’t captured.  Time if flying and I’ll only regret the moments I don’t capture.  I’ve tried to do better the last few days.  I think I need a photo project to motivate me.  One photo per hour at the top of the hour maybe?  To capture our typical busy, crazy, chaotic days?  I think that’s what I need.  Even if I just shoot now and edit later when I have more […]

My sweet, lego loving, boy.  Right now, he loves “ice cold water”, being up in Jonah’s mug constantly, talking, pestering his sister, snuggles with mommy, talking, all things ninja, spontaneous dance breaks, talking, using his binoculars to look for dragons in the sky, math and reading, volcanoes.  I look at him and think “how is he 5?!”  He steals my heart daily.

1. Ty recently turned 16.  16 y’all.  He’s so grown up now.  Pictures forthcoming….as soon as I get around to taking them!  I have to twist his arm and bribe him these days.  The teenage years y’all…..I’m a big mix of proud and panic.  His time here at home with us is going by way too fast.  3 years….I have 3 years left with him at home.  I just want to say that’s not long enough, I need more time, why does it have to go so fast?!  Hey universe, that’s not fair.  This feels like yesterday.

2.  Ty isn’t the only one who turned 16 this month….this old girl turned 16 too.  I swear she has the fountain […]

This is so her.  Tucked away with a book in her messy room, inside a box she swiped from Ty’s birthday gifts once opened.  Boxes are endless entertainment around here.  And the mess is never ending.
