Happy 4th Birthday!

Thank you to my dear friend Allison for being the photog for Ryan's 4th Frozen Birthday party.  You rock.

Thank you Hadley for celebrating 'Wyan's' birthday with her.  I know all the kids had a blast!  Ryan was thoroughly satisfied and is already talking about her 5th birthday party (and I get exhausted just hearing all of her thoughts).

You can view the pics from our Frozen bash here Happy Birthday Ryan Claire!

8 months & Graduation

Reagan is 8 months old. Time flies too fast.

Likes:

• rolling
• eating (especially stuff she's not supposed to have - i.e. our food and paper)
• remotes and telephones
• being free!!!

Dislikes:

• not being free
• not having her way

Size:

• depends on the brand....6-12 mos and even some 12 - 18 mos!
• 4 diapers

She is the cutest sweetest baby.  She's so cuddly and loves to have our attention. She is trying to crawl but knows how to manipulate between rolls and military crawls/scoots to get to where she wants to be.  She also tries to 'stand' independently.  I believe she will be a little feisty girl and will not be as much of a talker as her big sis.

I LOVE BEING A MOTHER.  I believe that being a wife and mother are my sole purpose in life.

Love them.

This is the best we could do on this family photo.

And.....my little brother Evan graduated!!!  I cannot believe it.  My "Evan Stevan", the graduate. 

Class of 2014

Adjectives

Words I would use to describe my life right now:

• Busy
• Messy 
• Anxiety
• Challenging
• Joyful....

and in need a 'Mom Maintenance' Day (i.e. mani, pedi, hair, some shopping) OR in other words a little time to BREATH.

This is my reality.  I am a working mom of two.  I am a working wife and mom of two...almost forgot about the wife part.  

Is everyday rainbows and candy?  No.  (I could only share those moments but feel that it's important to document the times when I feel like this also.)

Would I change anything right now?  Honestly, if I could I would BUT I know that everything I am dealing with right now will make me a stronger person and is all a part of God's plan.

I am so lucky to have the best husband and sweetest girls to keep me focused on what's really important.

That's all I want to say right now.
