I read this really great post yesterday about Motherhood & I've been thinking about it since. Sometimes being a stay-at-home mom can be really mundane. Schedule wise, that is. It's the same thing. And now John is throwing tantrums like I've never even imagined. Its really trying for me to keep a cool head. So anyway, I'm going to try harder to love & appreciate the messes, the tears & all the other hardships of having an almost 2 year old & a 9 month old. And I'm going to try not to put myself down about how messy my house can get, about the laundry that I can't ever seem to catch up on, the crushed up goldfish that seem to appear out of no where & the constantly sticky floors, etc.

| Ellie found a veggie stick chip {they taste like french fries!!!}. You can tell by all her spit that she really loved it lol. |
I wasn't going to post these living room ones because you can see the clean laundry STILL in the basket. Oh well.
 |
| Lately John refuses to eat anything unless its out of a measuring cup. His cereal? Served in a measuring cup. Snacks? That's right... his beloved measuring cup. Seriously. Any bite of food MUST be put into his measuring cup. |
 |
| Someone enjoyed eating strawberries with his lunch :) |
 |
| Playing with Nathan's old shaving brush. |
 |
| She loves how the bristles feel. |
 |
| Check out how this kid stands on the knuckles of his toes to watch movies! He always gets super close on the intense parts of his beloved Pixar movies. |
 |
| Caught in the act! I laughed so hard :) |
 |
| Ellie was thrilled that John allowed her to eat the rest of his apple today. |
 |
| Her hair is starting to curl :) Maybe she'll end up looking like me lol. |
 |
| He dove under the crib to get the ball pit balls. |
 |
| So serious... |
 |
| She's clearly very talented ;) |
 |
| Her sleepers now have grippy feet :( She's getting to be so grown up. |
 |
| her eyelashes are finally getting some length! maybe one day she'll catch up to John. |
Those two little faces make every "when will end?!" day seem not SO terrible. They are my greatest blessings!
