Kids

I had postpartum depression with my first two in varying degrees, so it's been SO nice to just laugh and enjoy Ellie. I didn't realize how bad I must have been until I had Ellie and found out how funny kids are and how much I just love watching them.

This is Ellie being high centered on her zebra. She wasn't even complaining, just hanging out waiting for me to take the picture.

This is Zoë. She loves to practice drawing pictures. This week she is all about Rapunzel.
Hanging out with Daddy.
Their new favorite activity is the Wii. Never thought I'd let my kids be gamers, but this actually gets them moving and active.
Making St. Patty's decorations. She painted this herself and cut everything out!

Nervous Energy

Nervous energy is what I have right now. I hyper focus on these little projects and it's my little happy place for a few minutes a day. I love it. And it's all selfish with no other purpose then "I want to"!! I made a rug for Ellie's room, made a wreath for outside my door, and am thinking on what I can do next...which unfortunately is cleaning and doing laundry.

I made this today

Chocolate cookies on the bottom, oreos in the middle and fudge brownie on top cooked together. I made it for Alex and the guys at his shop today. They should love me. AND I make my family home made bread all week and have made a home made dinner since the day we moved to Minot. They are SPOILED. And I am tired.
