Life Lately

See this handsome boy? Well we have been working on praying with him and on day 2 I was at the hospital and G found him kneeling by his bed waiting and ready to pray. He loves praying. He also loves to remind us of what to pray about. His favorite subjects are: grandma horsey, nana and papa, brother, mom and dad, and pillow and bed. 

There is something so sweet and innocent about children praying. I truly believe prayer is familiar to children and that they love speak in you Our Father in Heaven. 

The weather is starting to get colder and Fall is full swing. We have our home decorated for Halloween and I'm so excited for their costumes this year. D will be a skunk and H will be a lion. We aren't doing a family theme this year but I figure an animal theme for the boys works. 

This is H playing king of the rock at the neighbors. That plastic lawn mower is his.. He loves taking it everywhere. 

You can't tell but D is smiling because he's standing on his feet while I hold him up. He loves to stand but has no idea on how to move his feet forward. 

Bedtime is one of my favorite times of day. I'm one very lucky woman to get help with it almost ever single night. The boys love their daddy!

You can see partially the goofy face G is making here but both him and H are pulling funny faces and getting D to giggle. Moments like these melt me!

H also enjoys cuddling many things to go to sleep. 

"Birdy" is a favorite!

I'm one happy mamma when I get one of these carts to grocery shop with! Yay!!! As many of you already know... Grocery shopping with 2 young children is THE worst!! This cart makes it a lot more bearable.

I'm really enjoying cutting D's hair! This was one of my favorite cuts so far! He looks so darling with a Mohawk! 

Oh and being outside.. That's the best thing for this boy! He could play in the sand for hours! 

Did I mention that he loves his "grandma horsey?" Oh yep!! He sure does!! His very first horse ride was a success!! 

I feel like I document my life better with pictures than words. Here is a picture I took of these two just hanging out in the morning together. 

Baby D's first Mohawk! (He has much less hair than his brother) but I still love the wispy hawk! 

We also ended up going to Olive Garden for lunch the other day because there was a $5 lunch deal for soup, salad, and breadsticks! (I'm not one to pass up on food)

H got serious about putting the stickers on the page. I must say they were a hit while waiting for food.

D is pro at the straw and was loving drinking out of the big boy cup! 

H worked his way over to grandma horsey to sit next to her instead of mommy. He seriously loves my mom! 

He was also so cute to my grandma. He gave her hugs and kisses along with my mom. He is a little lover! 

Life is so fun with my handsome boys!! D loves kitty! 

Did I mention he also likes chocolate? Oh and so chocolate teddy grams fall into the love category.. As well as messy category.

Life can be hard as a stay at home mom, but there is truly so much more beauty in the moments when spending your days with the loves of your life! My heart is so full from being a mother two my two incredible boys. I'm so thankful for them! 

I am so thankful for a sweet and loving husband who works so hard for us to enable me the ability to raise our children instead of someone else. Many aren't as fortunate to stay at home, but I am very blessed to be able to do so. 

I have been very blessed as well to be able to work on weekends as a "queen" my small princess business has been keeping me busy and has helped so much with many unexpected bills that have come up. My cousin also joined me this month and we are hoping to expand as a duo. 

Party With My Favorite Princesses! 

Well.. That's life lately!
