Day two home with the five of us, I must say I'm enjoying settling back in to our new normal. I'm thankful my husband has a month more off of work and I will be off of work for 11 more weeks. We are so rarely home all together, it feels like a treat. Sweet little Anna-Kate is getting TONS of love and snuggles from her big brother and sister. Constantly. Aside from snuggles, we've been reading a lot, spending time with our animals, being outside, getting dirty and trying to do some teamwork to make some good food. Our house is a disaster, but better than yesterday, so that's progress. My body is definitely in recovery mode, so pacing myself with baby snuggles is just perfect to make sure I don't do too much. Sometimes I think about all I usually do this time of year with the gardens around this property, but this year I won't be doing it "all". And that's okay. I've asked for another baby for 4 years now. Having her close to me is how I want to be spending my days, the garden will be there next year. These infant days...I'm loving them.
