Off to SJ

Went to celebrate Emma’s tenth birthday 

Ouch

Temperence and I are so similar, we both often have ouchies. She fell outside on the side of the outdoor furniture.

Alpaca and llamas

Went to visit a local farm of alpacas and llamas. 

Was very informative and the kids loved it. Temperence our inquisitive girl stayed and was able to use an old spinning wheel. 

Sup mom

Cadence wanted in and the tray was on, I look over as I am talking to Temperence and she is like this.

Table

Munchkin won’t stay off the table so I bought a booster seat and it seems to have so far solved our issues. At least for today, it’s new and she feels like a big girl. Abigail is not so impressed but is adorable as she dreams.

Trampoline

We have a small trampoline in the living room, I used to be a clean freak and would have never allowed this in the past but it’s the best. When Temperence wants to watch tv, sure but jump. She will jump till she is pouring sweat. The other night it was a solid 90 minutes. Cadence gets lots of use as well.

Motherhood

Motherhood looks well on me, I am enjoying being with the children. Don’t get me wrong it’s jot all sugar and roses  but once we get our routine down it goes smoothly. I just need to calm down when things get heated and remember this will pass. A dear friend of mine recently was given the opportunity to learn about taking a quick breath then deep breaths to calm down. I am working on this as well.

Laundry

I thought once I was a stay at home mom, I would have all the time to complete the daily tasks. For some reason it is more of a challenge to stay on top of household chores. In the past I would never let

Clothes sit, I always found the need to fold them as soon as they were dry. Now I am having to relax more on this, I am not a mom to a single anymore I now have three ducklings. What a different world to have to spread my attention and try to spend enough time with all. You would think Abigail requires more attention, wrong! Cadence is definitely on the move and into everything. Life is good and I am so proud to let some things go even if it is mentally draining. 

Love them!

The littles as we call them have grown a bond, Cadence is such a sweet big sister. Now instead of taking her pacifier she will now trade for the one she wants. If she hears Abigail crying she will help by getting me the bottle or pacifier. If Abigail is crying Cadence will also start with her concerned grunts. 

Cadence vs the portable high chair

she wanted to be strapped into the portable high chair and got very upset when I tried to remove her. Next thing I know she is crawling around with it attached. 

Meanwhile Bella was hanging at her fav place

awesome new place opened up close by. She lets the dogs all roam around. It’s great socializing for Bella. She needs to be around people and dogs. 

They sent me these pictures 

Sleepover at the Azule house

Spent the night at the Azule house and Kay was taking Cadence and Temperence on a walk in the wagon. 

Parents

Temperence:

You know what I love about parents? They are always so supportive. She tells me this as we are getting stuff ready for Father’s Day.

Hands

Abigail found her hands, she is the cutest, she looks so intently at them then focuses a s puts them in her mouth.

Scavenger Hunt

Temperence is so creative and fun! She told me to go outside and come in with my eyes closed and walk towards the kitchen. I complied and when I arrived I seen a clue. She sent me

To four different places. She had me make us our favorite snack, get our favorite stuffy aka her favorite lol, go to her worry spot (her new fish guppy, she is constantly concerned over the fish). Then meet in our cuddling spot (my bed). To snuggle and enjoy a movie. 

When you show your kiddo Sesame Street for the first time

Cadence is teething and got a bad rash from a swim diaper yesterday, therefore she woke up with Abigail at 4:05. So needless to say we are exploring through the Netflix world

Excuse me

Cadence needed some help getting up and Bella happen to be there
