Mom of two definitely keeps me busy!

I love being a mom to both of my girls, but let me tell you I am sure busy! It is amazing the experiences that you have as a parent and all you can do is laugh. For those of you who are not yet parents let me enlighten you to some of the things that take up my time. For those who are parents I am sure you will be able to relate!

My day starts around 5 in the morning when Lily usually wants to eat. Around 8:00 Adalynn is usually up and yelling at me to wake up because she is hungry. She usually asks for cheese, snacks, marshmallows, juice or sometimes when I am not fast enough she just pours herself some cereal.
I have decided that Adalynn is old enough and needs to start helping out around the house and so she has started doing her own laundry.

I sadly didn't learn to do my own laundry until I got married, but I am making sure that my children don't make the same mistake I did. In between all of the housework I am busy changing many, many diapers, but don't worry Adalynn is doing her part here as well:


And because diapers can be so stinky Adalynn sometimes makes sure that the house still smells fresh. She prefers the scent of baby powder.


After all of that housework we sure work up an appetite so we have lunch.
Lily is still nursing, but Adalynn doesn't want to feel left out so sometimes she will pump
I always have so many errands to run and let me tell you how difficult it is to take a two year old and a baby to the store (especially the two year old, Lily is usually really good). Adalynn is a very strong willed little girl and definititely two so if you are not a parent who has not experienced this, just wait, and in the mean time please be kind to those parents who are sweating and having a hard time loading groceries on the belt, or keeping their children in the cart, or chasing them down the aisle, or watching their children scream and kick on the floor. And if you have experienced this just know that I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!!!!!!


Now all parents know that kids love to color so obviously we spend a lot of time coloring. Some times Adalynn takes it a little too far, but I have learned that pen does come off skin quite easily.

We are lucky to live where there is a pool and so often I will take the girls swimming. Sometimes Adalynn is just so excited that she just gets ready herself.
After a long hot day of swimming it is time to take baths. And my girls love taking baths. Adalynn is so cute with Lily and loves to help me bathe her.

I couldn't have asked for a better big sister for my sweet Lily. And nothing melts a mothers heart more than seeing her children be kind and show love to one another.
I sure am a lucky mom and have two amazing girls.

And although he is gone a lot working so I can stay home and going to school don't forget my amazing hubby Trent! Who loves his girls more than anything! (except maybe me!)
