I tell Doug all the time that "my days evaporate" and I don't feel like I get much accomplished. I remember when Ethan and Sydney were babies, Doug would come home from campus and I would tell him all I do is "keep kids alive all day" and sometimes it feels that way again. But really--these lively kids make my life full. When I top and think about it, my life is extremely full of joy. Look at this little girl who has finally mastered sitting up!!
…and dancers who find joy in just moving their bodies??
…the snuggles I get every morning from Lyla are priceless. I finish my workout (and sometimes in the middle several times) with snuggling this little girl. She is a mama's girl like nothing I've ever experienced!!
We had a dance party and Ethan brought a dress downstairs from my closet--he hand-picked it for me. I laughed so hard and couldn't say no. Lyla has started a new cheesy grin that I had to capture on camera.
We went to the dentist for teeth cleanings and left understanding that we will need to start budgeting to fix Sydney's post-thumb-sucking mouth. She had pushed up on her pallet such that it has created a cross bite because her teeth don't fit together. The dentist told me that Ethan's front teeth have some signs of trauma. I told him about him hitting the concrete patio in Hawaii face-first on his bike--yup, trauma alright!!
We went to Doug's basketball game and had a great time cheering him on. Ethan and Sydney in their pajamas--so fun to hear them call out to daddy.
Yes, life is FULL these days.
