My little toots

My pics posted on top of my text and it's stuck soooo enjoy a few pics of life lately and if you still feel like it there is a post at the bottom. 

I sent this to lance at work. A strangers child has taken residence in my sweet angel Nora this week. She had just slapped me in the face, hard, because I took the crust off her sandwich at the park! I know I look awesome. No makeup, messy hair. Keepin it real! 

Here is MY Nora. We are looking forward to her return! 

Family pic at our church pumpkin patch party. Yes, I am wearing awesome overalls! I'm not so into adult dress up, but agreed to be a farmer! 

Climbing into anything she can! 

Pumped about their 99 cent buckets! 

Meals are currently a bit of a struggle. But we've down away with high chairs and I think it's helping!

My little Zoe Rose enjoying some solo time while we waited for sissy to get up! 

(Now here is the post). 

Sorry for my lack of posting. I've still got a half written vacation post from August AND a birthday post from APRIL that I have yet to finish! With me working two evenings a week and the adoption and ya know, the two toddlers tearing up the casa all day long I feel like it's 10pm before I stop these days! I'm thankful to be busy with my full life, but blogging is definitely taking a backseat right now. I imagine once child three gets here it won't be much better, but maybe so! Here are a few recent pics of my adorable, super hyper, and unfortunately quite defiant munchkins these days. My sister made a great point the other day when I was saying how tired I felt. Mentally more than physically. She said, "having babies isn't hard, being a parent is hard." I think it agree. Sleep deprivation aside, trying to teach tiny people how to be kind and share and accept boundaries with a happy heart is a hard job! We've definitely entered into the phase of fits and defiance and so much climbing. Oh, so much climbing. They are

both sweet to the core, but are definitely learning to push the limits. One significantly more than the other at the moment but she shall remain anonymous! 

My version of a Pinterest project! Flour and water in a bowl with a few hiding toys! Hey, they loved it! 

BREATHE!!!

Just a quick oil update to shout from the rooftops how much we are in LOVE with one particular blend and feel like it is a MUST have in every household! 

BREATHE!

Lance has borderline debilitating seasonal allergies and can't.ever.breathe.

But now we have an almost instant relief. For Lance it just helps kick up his daily allergy medication that he has to take, but for me who just gets stuffy with the seasons changing and junk in the air it's a cure. Literally. I will find myself totally stuffed up and feeling pretty cruddy at the end of the day and a good generous application of this stuff on my chest and I'm breathing clear in 20 minutes. I think it would have the same effect on Lance with more frequent application, but when you sell plumbing equipment for a living it's not always desirable to be walking around smelling like essential oils! ;) 

I will add that Lance has one complaint. It makes his nose runny. Well yes, i'd say that means it's working. I can't say I've had dramatic changes with all my oils yet, but promised to honestly post my experience and I will honestly say you all need to run and grab a bottle of this awesomeness ASAP. Plus, you cannot overdose so unlike traditional meds, you can keep it coming to make sure the effects stay!

Enjoy your new found ability to BREATHE! Even in a place like Houston with crazy, unpredictable weather and wacky seasons!!
