Today was a hard day, like really really hard, I struggled and my two toddlers struggled. Not a good combination! I'm sitting here re evaluating my whole day trying so hard not to beat myself up as a rookie of a mother and I can't help but think of tomorrow. Oh, how very very grateful I am for Tomorrow. I make this promise now, to my two rambunctious, trouble making, sweet little boys..tomorrow will be better!! I love you Asa and Kyran.
Clearly this picture was not from today:)
I'm just thinking today of how fast these teeny tiny fingers and toes grow. There is a part of me that's sad it doesn't last forever. So for right now I'm just trying to take it ALL in. Today, I'm so grateful for my camera that makes capturing and remembering my three little men so much easier!
Mom and Dad, aka, grandma and grandpa came to visit us for the weekend. It was a quick trip, but we enjoyed every second we got to spend with them. I miss so much,being around my mom and dad all the time. They are truly amazing people and I'm so incredibly lucky to have them as parents. Thank you mom and dad for making the trip to Boise to help celebrate our new Silas!
If I had a penny for every time I randomly hear " wow, you have got your hands full" I might be eventually be a rich women. ok not rich obviously but I do get that all the time. I always just laugh and say, "ya I guess I do! " but I'm mostly really thinking of how grateful I am to have my hands and arms FULL of these boys, rather than empty! I absolutely love how much fun and hard works my job requires of me. I have never felt more fulfilled as a person, and at the same time life has never been so simple, yet extremely difficult. Makes perfect sense right? Today I am so grateful to "have my hands full" I couldn't ask for more.
I don't really know where to begin with the day Silas was born so I think I'll let my pictures do most of the talking. It was an incredible day for our family, and I since, have played it over and over in my mind and I cannot thank my Heavenly Father enough for blessing us with Silas. We love him immensely, and cannot get enough of his cuddly love!!
Quinn ran his first half marathon on Saturday. It was actually his first race ever, and I couldn't have been more proud and actually couldn't help but be jealous at the same time! He really didn't train, he got out and ran a few times but for having no training I think he did an awesome job! His time was 2 hours and 13 min. Half of the run was uphill too. I would have been right there with him, but having a baby three days earlier kinda put a stop to that. I'll post about our new addition later:) I'm proud of you Quinn!
