After 5 years of being a stay-at-home mom, I found the wonder of mothering slowly starting to get crowded out by the mundane feeling. I realized our world seems to surround people with the negative, and complaining about blessings seems totally acceptable. So I decided to fight against that "normalcy" and focus only on the positive. I look back to my first year as a mom when everything was new and keeping house was fun and I aim to have that attitude again. This blog is my outlet to showcase the daily miracles that surround me in my blessed life as a stay-at-home mom so that I will never forget the wonder of it all.

Girls Night In

What do we girls do when the boys are away and the baby is asleep?

We make a fort....

....which doubles as a bunk bed for some friends....


....we gather supplies....

....and paint each others' nails....

(I know you're jealous of my manicure)

.....we act goofy...

....and then cuddle up WAY past bedtime to read Farmer Boy while eating chocolate mint cookies.

OK, OK, so that's not it.  We MAY have also gotten a bit carried away in the polish department.

Funny Friends

Our dog, Denver, exudes love.  I knew he'd love our bunny girls when we brought them home and boy did he ever.  And his love has never lessened.  Every morning he is excited to go see them.  He shares veggie treats with them, rolls around with them, lets them sit on him, and seems to smile when he's with them.  I LOVE these animals!






Can you see his smile?
