Happy Father's Day a Day Late

I didn't get a Father's Day post up yesterday because I was too busy spending it with my two favorite Dads. My husband and my own dad. I am so lucky to have both in my life.

But first, I want to say "Happy Father's Day" to my wonderful husband. We haven't done things traditionally. We met, fell madly in love in about two seconds, and a month later were on our way to starting a new family. Both of us were in slightly prime partying days that were now at an end. And we both had to grow up.

When you are a mom, you immediately have to put on the brakes to anything that could be detrimental to the life now forming inside of you. As a dad... you have more of an option seeing as you aren't going to be harming anything directly if you continue to drink and party and whatnot.

I want the world to know how lucky I am. I have watched partying days be thrown aside to change diapers and read books and take trips to the zoo. I have gotten to watch Logan grow up a little more each day, and am constantly amazed by his love for us. Going from a world with no responsibilities to having to be accountable for almost every minute of every day is hard work. And he has done it beautifully.

Logan, I love you for all that you do for us and all that is to come. You are a great dad, a great husband, and Declan, Baby 2 and I are all so lucky to have you in our lives. Thank you.

They're Coming

OK, so my last two posts were about the changes that we, as a family, have been going through. A new house, a new job, and new routine. The last month has pretty much been spent getting used to it all. I feel as though much of our time has been spent playing catch up constantly. Every day is spent handing Declan off to one another as we rush on our way to work, trying to get our apartment together, and fighting the third trimester desire to sleep all day. However, I know that should be coming to an end soon.

This week is going to be full of visitors. Logan's mom and my dad will both be down for Father's day weekend. It is my goal to get our apartment fully unpacked today. (Yikes) so that we will be able to just be calm and settled, and able to have fun with our visitors.

However, in order to do that, I need to get off of here and get into action. Declan's post-breakfast bath seems to be over, so off I go to get things done.

Have a great Tuesday!

HEY YOU GUYS

HEY GUYS!!! We finally have internet again!!!! So happy to be back in the game. I can't believe that it's been almost a month since my last post. Soooo many things have changed.

We have a new home, I have a new job, we have an entirely new routing for Dex, and oh yeah, I've hit that third trimester. 30 weeks by now actually. I feel as though I'm almost living a new life.

However, in this new life, we have been doing a lot of settling. Today was the last day in my first full week of new job/ half-time stay at home mama. (The other half of the time is Logan being a stay at home dad!)

So I'm a little tuckered to try to start a full update. It is to come for sure. I also hear that wonderful door, meaning my two year old is up from his nap. More to come soon, I promise! But for now... I need to go and smother my boy in wake up kisses.
