Someday I'll Miss....

Everyone reminds me that these days are precious and they won't last long. I know they are right, but somedays it is just hard to believe them. The messes and laundry, the sweeping after breakfast, lunch and dinner. The rubber band flinging and the constant wrestling that turns into crying. The lists can go on and on. I know these days are special, somedays its just hard to remember. I guess these are a few things I will miss.

 Cleaning noodles off eyelids, cheeks and that darn highchair. 

 Picking up Legos... 

Someday I'll miss walking in to clean the extra bathroom only to find a army battlefield complete with a upside down helicopter and a "garage" of Matchbox cars,

and last looking for a little girl only to find her in the cupboard. 

Just looking at these few pictures helps me realize, I really will someday miss these little people running around my house. The laundry and the legos thats a different story! 

Hummingbirds

We watch these birds daily, I fill the feeder weekly! The boys like it best when they dive bomb each other, typical! It is crazy how fast their wings move. This morning we had 4 hummingbirds all at once. We were really excited, and with all the excitement there was to much noise for me to step out on the patio and take a picture, again typical! :) I waited until they went with their dad to the ball field, I can be a lot quieter!

 These little birds play a big part of our daily life. 

Daily Life

Addie is always so happy when she wakes up from her nap. She usually will just lay in her crib and talk to herself until I go in to get her. When I walk in her room I will raise my arms and   call her my Binda, Binda! I don't even know where that name came from or what it means, I only use it when I go to get her out of her crib. Yesterday she was especially happy so I had to capture it. 

On Tuesdays and Friday's Preston gets to hang with me while Landon is at school. When Landon is home they are both usually together in the playroom, their room, or outside riding their scooters etc.  Preston by himself is another story, he is my shadow! He wants me to be with him at all times! Yesterday I was getting a little frustrated, then realized next school year he will be going to school everyday, and soon he won't want to hang with his mom. I tried to change my attitude, these are the moments, right?! 

I am going to start trying to capture my daily life. These posts will show the good, the bad and the DIRTY! I know it might not be to exciting, because frankly I do the same things over and over and over everyday!  It's the simple things we do that make us who we are and I want to remember the simple moments! Just like this photo of Addie playing with her deflated birthday balloons, this reminds me of pure happiness. Now the pictures of the mounds of laundry and unmatched socks that will have the adjective AGONY! I really hope I can capture what our household does each day.
