Diary No. 8

Hey there hi there ho there!

This past week was great. It took me a minute to get back into the groove of normal life after a bunch of sickness took over our house, but once I got back into it it felt so good! I know that being a stay-at-home-mom can be mundane, but I actually find so much comfort in the same every day tasks and rhythms we are in. I was reflecting this morning on how I feel like I'm finally in my zone as a mom. I don't feel overwhelmed or behind or lost as to what I'm supposed to be doing (most days). Our rhythms are working for us and I feel peaceful and comfortable, and I'm so thankful for that! Which also makes me wonder why in the world I can't get a third baby off of my mind! We are in the zone I feel like, and a third babe would throw all that comfort out the window! Nevertheless my family doesn't feel complete yet. No, I'm not pregnant or even close to being so! This is just where my head is at right now!

Here's a little recap!

The first day of spring here was dreary and rainy. It definitely matched my mood last Monday!

A satisfying before and after with my magic eraser. It truly is magic! I'm in the spring cleaning mood recently and it feels good!

Morning chats with dad before he leaves for work. (It was wacky wendnesday so he wore his clothes inside out! lol).

The sun hitting my dinner plate just perfectly, why not take a photo, right?

Felt super accomplished after deep cleaning my pantry!

The boys playing nicely together is worth any mess they make!

Soaking in the warm Spring weather and going for a walk!

Our first trip to the playground I grew up going to, so much fun! I dreamed of these days when they were newborns and it is so fun watching them explore!
