My Angels

Who knew that one day I would be sitting here looking into the eyes of my beautiful little girls. I just want to take in every moment I have with them. All the smiles, coos, cries, and leg pumping makes me realize that God gave me the best gifts I could ever ask for. Right now, as I am typing this blog, I have Olivia sitting on my lap rocking. She is content and so am I. Life can't get any better than being able to spend cozy time with my girls.



Earlier I was folding laundry and had the girls laying on the bed. I was imagining my little girls being teenagers and we were all hanging out in my bedroom discussing our days. I long for that relationship with them. The same one I had with my mom when I was a teen.



The girls are four months now. They are holding their heads up, sucking their thumbs, and talking! Well, talking in their own language. They like to hear themselves more than anything. We have now moved into 3 month clothes and weigh 13 pounds each. We had to adjust the car seats to fit them. Nap time is interesting as well. We can not put both girls in the same bed due to active movements. One usually sleeps in her crib and the other is put in her pack-n-play on the other side of the house. This gives me lots of exercise trying to keep up with them. Which brings me to my next topic: Mama Time.



Having two little ones the same age can surely wear you out. I was needing some "me" time. I have taken up running. I decided to train for a 5K and then eventually get to my half marathon. My first race is on Labor Day. I have been running for 3 weeks now. On my runs I have time to reflect on my day and what I still need to accomplish, which is a lot. I love this time and thanks to my wonderful husband, I am able to have this time everyday. I can't wait until Juliana and Olivia can go with me. I already have my running stroller, they just need to be a little bigger.



Daddy just got home from a meeting and now it is time for dinner, got to go get the bibs out!


Just a couple of pictures from after bath time-
