S E V E N M O N T H S!

Holy crap. I say this every month but I can't believe they're already seven months old! They've learned so much this past month and it's so fun to watch them figure out new things. 

Oliver's been teething so he's been pretty miserable the past couple weeks (poor little guy), but even though we can tell he's in pain he's been so sweet and cuddly and will give us the cutest little bashful smiles. Porter on the other hand is anything but bashful and loves to make loud screeching noises, grab anything in his reach, and most recently he's started growling at us. It's pretty hilarious. 

They absolutely love to crawl all over each other now! It's so fun to watch their little personalities develop and we can't wait to see what new things they learn this next month! 

Time needs to slow down!

Headbands for Days

The boys aren't the only ones repping some new clothes, Joce Lovely Shop sent me some adorable headbands and I've been wearing them on the daily ever since I got them. They are the best for days I don't feel like doing my hair but still want to look cute (which lets be honest is every day) and I love how versatile they are!! So fun!

Brand Reps

The boys get to be brand reps for some pretty awesome shops and we are so excited to be part of the Ammon Lane team! They sell the CUTEST leggings and we got a few pairs in the mail and I'm in love!

Dapper Dudes

We are back in the swing of things at home! Well, we are GETTING THERE. Ha!

The house might still be a mess, and we might still have suitcases to unpack.. but that's besides the point! The boys are lucky enough to have been selected to be brand reps for some awesome shops, so it's given me an excuse to take even more pictures of them than I did before (if that's even possible). Here's a couple pics of my dapper dudes sporting some cute newsies hats and adorable bandana bibs by the shop Sweet Lovelies Handmade!

New Years Resolutions

My main New Years resolution as cliché as it sounds is to be more healthy. Mentally, physically, & emotionally. 
One of my main problems is all the crap I eat. Most of the time I'm in a hurry and have to just grab something quick; so that tends to be a hot pocket, pop tart, or pizza. (I know, gross)
So I'm trying something new. I'm going to start doing healthy meal prep for the entire week so all of my meals are ready to grab and go! I'm hoping that as I fuel my body with more nutritious foods I'll feel better and have more energy. 

Wish me luck!

Leaving Michigan

It's our last day her in Michigan and we are so sad to leave! We have loved every second being here. I just wish so badly my family lived closer to us, but maybe someday! 

Ollie and Tyler already have a special bond formed. Tyler spent a lot of the time with Oliver trying to teach him how to crawl and walk and strengthen his muscles. It's so fun to watch my brothers connect with the boys and it'll be so fun to see what happens as they grow. 

I had the opportunity to get together with all my church friends from my teenage years and it was a blast to catch up! It's so crazy to see how different all of our lives are now!

It's been fun Michigan! Now we're on our way home!

Brothers are the Best

I'm so so happy to have three amazing brothers that I get to call my best friends! I love that as we've gotten older we've just gotten closer. All three of them are such incredible examples to me and I strive every day to become more like them. How lucky we are that we can be with our families forever!

It's a good life!
