Since I've Been Gone

Ahhhhh, I can breathe for the first time.....

Kelly Clarkson references aside, so much has happened since I said that I was coming back last time.

Charlotte started crawling.

Hunter remained awesome.

I found out I was pregnant. What?!

Charlotte turned one. Hunter turned two.

Hunter and Charlotte had an awesome joint birthday party themed Pirates and Mermaids. (I can see many fun joint party themes in our future.)

We found out that Hunter and Charlotte would have a baby brother. Henry.

Family trip to Florida.

Mom took the kids and her big belly to Montana with out daddy. Worst. Idea. Ever.

Henry was born.

Chaos ensued. Fatigue took over.

And now, three under three is our new normal :)

I'm back folks... and I have an exciting announcement :) Leave your guesses down below!

Wow. I guess I took a little vacation from blogging? I've been busy with life and haven't had time to blog like I could before, and believe it or not, it's not because I have 2 under 2. School is keeping me incredibly busy this year, as well as a few new hobbies. I've been sewing and I LOVE it. I made these adorable ruffle leggings for Charlotte. I bought a few pairs for her on etsy around Christmas, but definitely didn't want to continue to pay $18 a pop just so that she could have every color under the sun.

There are slight imperfections, but I LOVE them, and can't wait to make more! I promise, I'll update more often, coming soon is a 21 month update on the Hunt-Man and a 9 month update on Miss Charlotte.

Speaking of, can you believe that I was starting to freak out about a party for Hunter starting at 7 months old, and this year I have a double party to plan and have barely just thought of the theme? Eek. I don't know if I was highly overthinking it last year, or if I'm procrastinating this year, haha!

I'll leave you with a few recent pictures of my babies, because they are just so cute, and I'm sure you're having withdrawals!

Hunter 12-18 months

So very much has changed from the time that Hunter turned 12 months until now while he is 18 months. I now have a little boy. A walking, talking, little by! I'll try to caption the pictures, it was hard to choose just this few! This momma takes a boat load of pictures!

First off, let me catch you up:

Sleep: Sleeping through the night, of course. We rock him and sing to him for a few minutes, but he goes to bed very well.

Eating: He eats what we eat, unless he's in a bad mood, then he yells, "Snacks, snacks!"

Talking- Has EXPLODED! He says so many things and comes home each day with a new word! I love asking him what Santa says, he'll say, "Ho, ho!!" He knows lots of animals sounds, can point to and say most facial features and body parts (mouth, teeth, ears, nose, eyes, hair, hands, toes-he doesn't say tummy or fingers, but can show them to you). His list of words is too long to count, but I LOVE to hear his little voice.

Playing- He has gotten better at independent play, but likes to be rough! He also likes to take other people's toys :/ He loves balls, and loves to ride in his cars (he has enough of them, haha!)

Here is a catch up on his last 6 months of life! I can't believe how much has changed in 6 months, but even more I can't believe how much he has changed in just a year since last Christmas!
