Family Bonding

Long time no write! Life has been so full and most of the time I’m not even sure what day it is! I guess maternity leave can do that, along with days and nights running together. Earlier this week we rented a boat on Portage Lakes and had an amazing time on the water, and swimming and just enjoying time as a family. I also went to Beachwood with my mom and took the kids for a fun day of shopping. Next week we are going to Cedar Point and although it takes much longer to get out the door, things have gone great whenever we’ve gone somewhere (so far)! The hard part is still just juggling at home. Garrett wants me to hold him all the time (which I love) but it gets tricky to try and clean, do laundry, cook, and do regular things too. I have a sling which is nice, but I’ve also learned to let go of feeling like everything needs to be perfect, that is just impossible right now.
I am posting a few new photos finally! The first picture shows Garrett just hanging out in his swing (I think he’s even grown since this picture)! The second photo cracks me up, what a funny memory! Grammie and Poppa sent a gift package for Garrett…including binkies and a baby outfit,hat, bib, etc. I had it on the stairway ready to bring upstairs and the boys confiscated the items and wore them!! Gabe is wearing the hat and bib and Grant grabbed the baby binkies and started posing away!! They make me laugh!
