Motherhood

My mind is exploding, and emotions are high, and i'm hoping its just because i'm pregnant and not because i'm really going crazy!

I'm hoping other moms will read this, and PLEASE leave your thoughts and advice.

As i'm preparing to bring another child into this world, and into our family I can't help but reflect on my life right now, and question how i'm going to do it.

I feel like I can barely handle the 2 crazy boys that I have.

For the most part I feel like i'm a good mom, I know they're taking care of, and they are happy,  But I don't feel like i'm living in the moment.  I feel like i'm running through the motions of life, but not taking the time to enjoy it.  It makes me sad. 

I'm one that has always enjoyed life, I have a LOVE for life. And I'm one to not let things get to me, i just go with the flow.

Being a mom is by far the HARDEST, Most REWARDING thing i've ever done.  

And i'm NO pro at it,  I try to do my best.

And I really don't want to take this time for granted, because I know it won't last long!

I need to take a step back and not let the stress of everyday life ruin these precious moments I get to have as a stay at home mom.

So as I prepare for Sweet little Emery to come into this world,  I'm going to focus on enjoying everyday, and not just go through the motions of What motherhood brings, and being a housekeeper and wife brings.

I've let it overtake me, as if i'm drowning. 

Motherhood is such a special blessing from my Heavenly Father, Its hard but its precious and rewarding. 

I'm grateful I live in a community where there are so many other moms in same situations, that I can turn to and ask for advice, or even talk to, and know that i'm not alone in this journey!

Here are some Pictures of my Most valuable treasures. . . 

Really Moms that read this, I'm hoping you will share your thoughts and feelings.

Its always nice to know your not alone!

New Year New starts

Wow, Its been a super long time sense i've posted!  But I'm starting to realize how important it is to keep up on my blogging.  I'm gonna look back and feel like i've missed out on so much.

My goal is to not make my 2nd and 3rd kid feel like I forgot about them, and don't care what cute things they are doing....because I really do.  I'm just more busy now!

Yes I did say 3rd KID!!! I can't believe it either.  We will be welcoming little Emery Girl sometime around April 17th.

I'm really excited for a little girl to be running around in this crazy house of ours, but i'm also really nervous! 2 Kids is a lot to handle, especially when your husband works and goes to school more than full time,  so 3 kids i'm getting pretty nervous about!  

I'm really excited for Emery to have 2 big brothers to protect her.  That gives me lots of comfort.

I'm not going to try and catch up or else I will feel super overwhelmed and probably give up.  So i'll start fresh from right where we're at in life!

I'm 26 1/2 weeks pregnant,  I feel GREAT.  No major problems

Kypton is 2 1/2.  He is at such a fun age!! He is still obsessed with sports, his favorite being baseball and basketball.  Thats all he really talks about.  He is talking a ton. I would say he pretty much can carry on a normal conversation just like any other human being.  Its so fun to hear all the funny things he picks up on.  My favorite being "Oh Shit"  I know it shouldn't be my favorite thing he says...but its all in innocence.  And he only says it when he is playing "sandlot"  He'll pretend to throw a baseball over the fence, and have "the Beast" chase him.   He's so much fun and brings so much happiness and laughter into our home!

Bronco is 10 months old.  He is growing up too FAST!  He is such a good kid, I couldn't ask for better babies.  He is so happy, and sleeps so good!  He has just found his tongue, and loves to make awesome noises with it.  He is such a mommies boy, which I LOVE!  He has such an independent personality, I try to give him lots of cuddles but he just wants his own space.  He is Def. a little home body.  He stresses and gets auntsy  when were anywhere but home, and as soon as we get home he is so happy, and crawls around as if he owns the place.  Kypton and Bronco are still trying to get used to each other.  Kypton is quite sure how to interact with him....kyptons way of interacting is to tackle and wrestle and play sports.  He doens't quite understand that he is still just a little baby.   Bronco puts up with a lot, i'm sure he'll be a tough little guy!

( My computer decided to stop working at this moment, so pictures of Bronco to come!)

Cheers to a New year, and Hopefully I can keep up on my blogging!  Even with adding a 3rd child to the mix! I'm gonna try really hard!!
