Matching jams and we didn’t even plan it! So of Matching jams and we didn’t even plan it! So of course it had to be documented. Lately, we’ve been reading “chapter” books to the boys at night and it’s quickly becoming my fav. 
.
Everyone piles up in our bed, no tv, no phones, just us. Sometimes we get distracted by silent toots, giggles, and blanket hogs but the point is we’re here and present. 
.
Last night my middle child whispered quietly in my ear, “mommy, I love you!” I instantly grinned from ear to ear and snuggled in! I wish I could keep them this little forever but I know more fun adventure awaits on the other side.

When I was pregnant with Cam, I knew I would be the strict parent. You know all the big things - no climbing on the counter, don’t eat too much candy, no potty words.

Well turns out I’m a complete sucker for these kids. Last night we had kids bubbly with cotton candy in it for no good reason. The sugar high was followed by tv till 10 and the boys taking rides in Palmers swing.

Lots of babbling to say break the rules. They are only little once and the big battles will be here before we know it ❤️🤣!

This is what mealtime at our house looks like most This is what mealtime at our house looks like most days. One kid falling over in his chair, another requesting more PB&J and a baby whose food ends up all over the floor. 
.
I’ve done the math, and on a daily basis I prepare at least 15 meals/snacks between 3 kids a day. 
.
It’s no joke and most of the time I’m shoveling down food standing up. Motherhood is chaotic and beautiful all at the same time. I forget a lot of things, but one thing I don’t have to worry about is all the important house stuff because @hoffmannbros handles that all for me. That’s why they’ve become my new besties!
.
They get it, and are on top of everything home related. I mean they called me to remind me that I was due for my maintenance and even sent new air filters in the mail before the tech came out. 
.
Seems like a no brainer why you wouldn’t use @hoffmannbros. Am I right?!!

❤️❤️❤️THIS❤️❤️❤️ Sweet 2 ❤️❤️❤️THIS❤️❤️❤️ 

Sweet 2020 baby,
I just want to say thank you.
Because in many ways, this year has been a mess.
A bit of a disaster, really.
But you.
You've been the light in the darkness.

The calm in the chaos.
The joy in the midst of a whole lot of hardship and pain and frustration.
So I know people will talk about 2020.
They'll talk about the stress and the fear and the sadness.
They'll recount every bit of the hard stuff that's brought tears to my eyes more times than I can count.
But I'm just so glad that, when I think back on this year, I also get to think about you.

Because you're such a gift.
The sweetest blessing.
And even though things looked a little (okay—a lot) different than I'd planned, and it certainly wasn't always easy or comfortable, your timing couldn't have been more perfect.
So thank you, little one.
Thank you for allowing me to be grateful for 2020.
Because it gave me you.

Walking distance was a must have in our forever ho Walking distance was a must have in our forever home search..... First fam walk downtown🙌🏻

It was exactly how I dreamed it would be 🤪🍾
- brisk winds 
- kids rode bikes for a block only to turn around to switch to scooters 
- Mike “warned” (yelled) at the kids at every cross street 
-Palmer hated the stroller (carried her without the carrier) 
.
So that was fun 🤣maybe next year! Editing to add because words online aren’t always easy. Read this with lots of humor and sarcasm behind it 🙌🏻
