Too funny

Ok, so I will be the first to admit, having kids is hard. Every part of me that thought one was hard, now counts my blessings during each scarce moment of silence. Two kids is nuts! It definitely gives you a new found respect for your own parents! I just wish people talked more about the scary parts, the sad parts, the parts that break your heart, and the ones make you feel like your losing your mind. They don't though, kids are a miracle and there's no debating that, but sometimes, just sometimes, they are so trying it can be a struggle to get through the day.

I'm thinking about writing a book, just tossing sone ideas around, about what really to expect during pregnancy and the toddler years. I've always been a pretty blunt and honest person, I think I can be funny at times (at least my sister thinks so) but mostly I want moms to know they are not alone. It's ok to laugh, to cry, to feel like walls are caving in, and then the in the next instant to feel so blessed your scared your "due" for something bad to happen. I don't know, any thoughts? Anything you wish someone would have mentioned so you could've been more prepared?

On a positive note, sometimes they melt your heart while others they can make you laugh so hard you can barely see straight. Check out this video of Wyatt, how funny! He cracks us up constantly, what an infectious laugh.





Bella is growing like a weed, she's three months already! Check out her latest pictures!

Home Sick

Ok, I think I've done a pretty good job managing two small children at home. However, I think my patience is getting maxed and I feel terrible. I love my babies so much, Wyatt is home sick, he's been sick since last Friday. It's about more than I can take looking at my child hurting and knowing there's nothing I can do. Wow, how frustrating. I know every parent goes through this but it just breaks your heart. Thankfully, even sick, I have two wonderfully well behaved kids. Wyatt is full of love and gives it out freely. He's very trusting and wears his heart on his sleeve. While I know that can cause problems, he's a lot like his mommy, and frankly his daddy too and I hope that never changes.

Bella on the other hand is laid back as well, but a little more of a diva. When she's ticked, she lets you know! But when she smiles, you just melt. I took this video earlier today, she changes every single moment and each one better than the last. Ok, so the video is totally dorky, but you just have to love it!

What a light these babies are in our lives, Fred and I are so lucky, how we ever deserved these two beautiful kids I'll never know but we are so thankful for them!
