Lately

Since Janie has turned one, I don't have an excuse to get on here regularly to update on our family happenings. Don't get me wrong... we are not going anywhere or doing anything monumental with our one- and two-year-olds, but we do have the exciting fairy wing play time on occasion.


We've been very busy around the house lately. Our daily schedule is kids up around 6:15 (us earlier than that), leave for work around 6:45, drop off at 7:00, pick up kids at 5:00, home to make dinner, do bath, and put to bed by 7:00-7:30-ish. There is typically minimal time for a whole lot of anything else unless I can get out of work earlier. Justin has started working locally, which is great because he is home for bedtime and that whole routine, but he is also not home until after we get back which makes making dinner a bit more of a challenge. It's hard to make dinner when you have a baby who wants to be held or a toddler requesting you to sit in the playroom with her or someone demanding a fig bar or screaming at the other about sharing a toy. 

Cowboys Day at school 
(before they were eliminated from the playoffs)

Picking up Ford from the vet! Went surprisingly well 
considering I had 2 hungry, tired babes with me...

But we do our best to enjoy them while we can. Nora tells great stories at bed time. Janie snuggles really well basically the entire hour before we put her to sleep. They are super cute at bath time and enjoy having that play time together. And usually we all get to sit and eat together for dinner.

Sometimes when the weather is really nice, we will take a walk or play in the driveway right when we get home. Nora likes her tricycle and her new pink car and Janie likes them both, too - so they generally take turns. The weather has been erratic lately so we enjoy it when it's nice and play inside when it's cold. 





There are also some days that they are just exhausted too...

After a morning with Grandma...


Can't forget about Ford!

Spring break is just around the corner and we are excited! Both girls will have updates next month on the blog, too. Check back soon!
