apartment tour

We are finally settled into our new place!!!

Can you believe all that natural light?? 

Also, I'm not trying to fool anyone...

my house never looks this clean.

I banished Rem to his room so I could snap a couple shots,

hence no pictures of the nursery, 

or of my crusty boogar couch, 

or of my dingy/food stained ottoman.

(Next time I'll make sure to do a post of what my apartment really looks like when the kids are free to roam.)

While Remington was in his room,

he decided it would be fun to rip off all of his bookshelves from the wall. 

That boy.

 ^^best mother's day ever

momma bear

My momma bear is hands down one of the most incredible people I know.

She is classy, witty, stylish and profound.

She has taught me everything I know about life and being a mother.

She is breathtakingly beautiful inside and out, and only continues to get more beautiful as she gets older.

(I mean honestly, check out that hot bod! She birthed 6 kids!)

She has dedicated her life to her family and helping others.

I have never known anyone to experience as many hard and life changing trials as she has...

...things that could easily leave one cold hearted and bitter.

Yet despite those trials, her faith in God remains unshaken. 

She is a friend to all, and is loved by everyone she meets.

She is my rock, my example and my very best friend.

I hope that can someday that I can be even half as amazing as she is.

She better live forever because I seriously don't know what I would do without her.

Happy Mother's Day Momma Bear

what we've been up to

The past two weeks have been a blur of school, internship, sickness and sleepless nights. Amongst all the crazy we decided to move! We are still in our same building just down onto the bottom floor. I LOVE IT!!! First floor living is where it's at when you have children. I dreaded the day when I would have to haul baby girl in a carseat, Remington and groceries up our flight of stairs. Now Rem can just walk right out to the car! It's been so convenient. The fresh coat of paint on the walls and new carpets sold us too.

It has taken some time getting used to our schedules this semester. David is gone pretty much all day everyday up on campus. I'm taking one class on campus, working 9 hours a week at the wellness center  in the afternoons and teaching CrossFit classes for my internship in the evenings. It has been wonderful being able to stay home during the day with Remington. Sometimes we even get to sleep in until 9am. Those are my favorite days haha!

Happy Monday Everyone-  

^^So glad I bought those mint shorts. He can totally pull them off. 

 ^^Transitioning out of the high chair has been easy. He loves his little table.

 ^^His first very own ice cream cone.

 ^^Rocks are his favorite. 

^^walked into his room and found him like this.

 ^^such a little stud. 

 ^^ hello belly button.

 ^^ I can't stop laughing at this pictures. He's going to nurse until he's 10. haha!

^^ 27 week baby bump!
