New Year, Fresh Start


I know it has been a while but the truth is...although fully warned and somewhat prepared,
3 kids has kicked my booty! Literally. I have worked my butt off to the point I no longer have one, I may have to look into implants...my jeans are not looking so good.
 Not saying I don't LOVE it, because I do. We all do. Brylie is THE cutest big sister, doing everything she can to help out and make him smile. Shawn totes around his little buddy EVERYWHERE so he is completely spoiled, and Lauryn is just happy she finally has someone she is bigger than.
 I genuinely love everything about my little family of 5, but I cannot name one single thing I have accomplished in the past nine months. I kept telling myself when he got a little older I would get more done, as soon as he sleeps though the night I will be good to go...NOPE, still running around like a crazy person, and although I still hold onto the hope that someday I will be one of those amazing moms that has it all together, I have come to terms with the fact that I am not one, and will just have to start putting those boring time management/productivity books I read in college into practice. Meanwhile here is just a tiny bit of what we've been up to...


Brylie started Kindergarten


Lauryn started Preschool




Trip to Hawaii

Life is good. Sometimes busy, hard, crazy and even sad or disapointing but overall REALLY good. It is so true that hard things make you stronger,  bad times really do make you appreciate the good ones, and I am realizing more and more how many good times and good things I have. Not trying to be profound...we all know I'm not. :) That is just the reason why I can't let this little blog/journal of mine be forgotten about...I need to write it down and remind myself of all the wonderful, adorable, exhausting little things I'm lucky to have in my day to day.
