Beautiful Mess

My house is a daily mess. I'll admit it. I know it will horrify my father, and grandmother who have passed down the "you could eat off my floors" gene, but alas,  I have let it all go.

Half of my sink is filled with dishes.

My laundry basket is filled to the brim with clean laundry yet to be folded and put away.

Toys are everywhere

Ehh, no biggie.

Because I am *trying* to let it go and simply enjoy my kids while they're still kids.

Our little Family

These were taken 2 weeks after Anna was born. She is just so precious and we love her. I find the only reason I put her down is because I either have to do something requiring two hands, or because I know its good for her to learn to sleep without being held. Otherwise I would just snuggle her all day every day. I don't even mind waking up at night... well, I mind less. :) More photos to come!

My girls

Lately it's been ALL girl ALL day, with Jeremiah at school and Greg at work. We have fun together.

 Anna's current space. She shares a room with us until she stops wanting to be awake from 2-4am!!!

I love these big beautiful eyes.

More pics of Anna

Side note: Thats our $85 craigslist sofa! I'm so proud.

 

 

Taking a bath, super exciting.

Christmas

A few pictures Greg took of Christmas morning. Leah and Jeremiah patiently waited for an hour until Colette woke up that morning! I couldn't believe it!

Annabelle

Pictures, Pictures, Pictures! More to come.

 

 

You want to know why I look so awesome? Becuase I was dilated to an 8 at this point... yeah.

 

 Her first stocking... probably big enough for Colette to fit in, but it was fitting considering it was very early Christmas morning at that point. And her little Christmas stocking hat with a red pom pom.

She didn't get any gifts this year, we decided that was because she was born after Santa had already packed his sleigh. :)
