A day in the life

Someone once told me that the minutes of parenthood feel like years and the years feel like minutes.  They are so right.  No matter how much you take in every single day, squeezing their little faces in the palm of your hands, and telling them you love them over tickles and kisses-the day to day can be exhausting and yet the years just keep on passing by.  

Some of my everyday's are made up from moments like these:

This is how I roll at Costco.

There is usually a Superhero somewhere in my house.

Playing house is an everyday occurrance when you are a fraternal twin.  They are like a grumpy old couple when they play house-bickering and bossing as if they've been marrieds for 50 years.  

We are at Addie's gymnastics.  

My little 3 have sat through hours and hours of their older siblings practices and games.

Girls night out!  

No boys allowed on this ramp.  Gwen may be outnumbered, but that doesn't phase her one bit.

My kids have all loved rain, especially running in puddles and gutters!

When daddy's gets home-he always brings the FUN!

A favorite spot of ours for weekend sunsets.

We often spill out into the street.  A little ho-down and skateboarding.

Last day of school 2013!!!

He and I may not look a lot a like, but on the inside we are almost identical:)

Best purchase we have ever made.  They jump every morning, afternoon, and night.

My very own Bones Brigade.  Brian leads the kids down the hill on their skateboards and scooters, and mommy takes their picture:)

Our 4th to learn how to ride a bike.  

He makes the years and minutes so sweet, funny, memorable and doable:)
