Though it may not look like it by her face, Clem has loved having Penny home for a sick day. They’ve played Barbies, painted, snuggled, danced. It’s been awesome to just sit back and watch it all. I don’t often really think about how little time they actually get together with Penny in school all day, or doing big kid stuff on weekends. So what if it took a middle of the night puke session to make it happen. #worthit
Sharing an ice pop in their not quite finished playhouse. 💛#sisterstuff
Little baby, big chair. Airplane not pictured.
Bye Bye Dada💛 #documentyourdays
Sure Clem’s finger is half way up her nose, but man, they snuggle now!!!😭💛😭
PB&J’s and helicopter watching. #fridayvibes
The face you get from Clem if you even look in the direction of her snacks... 😠 #meanmuggin
1) I look at her sometimes and can’t believe she’s made from pieces of me. 2) She asked me the other night if I wanted to be buried after I die, or turned to ash. I said, maybe shot into space to become a star. She said she’d like to do that too so we could be together. 3) I don’t want her spring break to end! 💛😭💛
Penny’s face tonight, when she asked if we could have a picnic dinner outside and I said ABSOLUTELY, was priceless!
We’re in the season of life that is very much about parenting a couple of crazy nuggets, but after 9 years of marriage there is nobody on earth that I’d rather be on this ride with. I love you, Evan... happy anniversary!!!
💛👧🏼👶🏼💛
Easter delivery!
Outside mornings for the win!🎉
We came, we saw, we conquered a berry smoothie and not much else. Celebrating turning a year older today with the tiny one. 🎉 #lastyearinmy30s
Penny lived her best life today! #schoolcarnival
I heard something the other day that pretty much gutted me. That one day you will put your child down, and you will never pick them up again... and in the moment you won’t even know it was the last time. I’m fully aware of this reality as I hardly ever carry Penny anymore. Her legs are almost touching the ground when I do. So at times when I think about not nursing Clem to sleep any more, I’m really in no rush. I live for this moment right here. The few seconds after she falls asleep, before I lay her in her crib, when she’s breathing heavy on my shoulder, and I at least know for sure she’ll still want me to pick her up when she wakes.
She’s got a three day weekend starting now. Gonna try to keep this vibe for all of it! ✨
Clementine Grey... you are 16 months old today and a complete loon. Your loves right now include all animals, but dogs, cats, and birds bring on fancy feet and squeals of delight. You quite enjoy climbing anything and everything. Your vocabulary really exploded this past week or so, you’ve also got some great animal impressions down. And when making this little face here, you can pretty much get away with dang near anything. #nobodyputsbabyinthecorner #exceptbaby
If we’re out in the backyard Clem will yell at you until you put her in the swing. And despite her tiny stature, her yells are a force to be reckoned with!
That thing where one is at school and the other is napping and you can’t stop staring at pictures of them together.
