Welcome to our life

Join us as we embark on this journey called parenthood. With two kids we've learned to expect the unexpected and love every minute of it!

What happened to the day?

I remember the first day that Aaron and I first moved in together. We had finished unpacking for the day, and I had made us dinner. I remember I made spaghetti, salad, and french bread. We sat down, and I began to have this feeling,the "This is it" feeling. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't necessarily sad, but I realized that this would be my routine for the next 100 years of my life. (Yes, I'm living to be 100 :) )

Fast forward 4 years, and I this feeling reared its head once again. I had to shower and I had both kids by myself. I first had to lock in the kids in, via baby gate. Every minute I had to slide the door open to ask if everyone was okay. At one point I saw Alexis legs crossed, feet on the bed, watching Thomas upside down. Jeffrey was fighting with the dog, etc. It was not a moments peace. I got out feeling very stressed and relieved at the same time.

I used to think that the only alone time I had was in the shower. Now that I'm a Mommy, 'alone time' is non-existent.
