A (hopefully quick) December Recap

I have a love hate relationship with January, Christmas blues mixed with the yearly purging of clutter and organizing. I always try to clean the old broken toys out before the new loot arrives but we still never have enough room. I try and tell myself that if we had a bigger home I would still fill it full of the same junk, just more of it. So many house projects on the list my head is starting to spin.

So, December was insane I need to remind myself of all that was accomplished instead of regrets for the things we didn't get to.

Braeden was priceless on the big day. Everything was so exciting and new. He opened just about every gift with awe. He kept saying ''this is just what I always wanted!'' or the classic ''this is so awesome!''. I was able to get a few video clips but watching it live was more fun. This is why having children can be addictive, you get to see innocence that you had forgotten existed until you watch your babies grow.

Jd and I celebrated our 6th year anniversary on the 30th. My mom took the kids for the night and Jocelyn had them for the day. We had almost 24 hours of uninterrupted time together. It was exactly what we needed. We have been so busy that time together has been hard to come by. We went to sushi, slept in, got ready for the day without littles tugging on us or whining for our attention and then went downtown for lunch. I can't imagine a life without this man and hope I never have to.

PS, and I am posting from my phone which does not allow me to split the pictures up so sorry for the photo bomb!
