away.

we're off on our first official road trip without daddy.
am i crazy? maybe. am i looking forward to it? definitely.
i'm packing the boys up and we're headed to the coast to stay at bama's house. i'm sure that all will go well. the boys will sleep the whole way there. there will be no tears. no tantrums. no throw ups. *fingers crossed.*

today.

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life."
i used to think this was silly. of course today is the first day of the rest of my life. of course it is. this was also true yesterday. and god willing will be true for tomorrow. such a silly little saying.

but not today. because today i am officially a sahm. what's a sahm? i'm glad you asked. it's my new title. for my new full-time profession. i am not the first to hold this title. and i won't be the last. i am taking it on full time now. the hours are long. the pay is...well, we'll find out. but i've heard that it is well worth it. the duties are endless, diverse and i'm sure will keep me on my toes. but i look forward to this ever-so-welcomed change of pace. i'm confident that i will soon master the art of pb&j. i will kiss all owies and hug whenever needed. i will wipe away all tears. and snot. and love with you with all my heart. for today i am your full time stay at home mom. your sahm.


and i'm the luckiest sahm in the world.

Turn up your volume!

Someone rescue me from this zoo...

Like father, like son

Happy Birthday Baby ! Mucus turns ONE!. Ooh, look at that yummy cake! Time to dig in, get messy and celebrate!


But I don't wanna grow up! Getting old is the pits...where did my youth go?


Monkey enjoyed the yummy chocolate cake...


But Mucus did not care for it one bit.

We had a very productive weekend...the weather was perfect, the boys took their naps at the same time and we were able to do some yardwork. Yay! Check out the before...
