almost a year later

So here is what we have been up to since I have been MIA from this so called "blog". Believe me I use this term very loosely. We now have a 5 year old preschooler that makes me laugh almost every minute of every day and a one year old girl that is just the sassiest little princess I ever did meet. Oh yeah and now we are the parents to THREE littles! We welcomed our second son, Axel, on August 6, 2014.  When I started this blog it was mostly for me and I think that the reason why I haven't really committed to it. But after seeing all 974 pictures just sitting on my camera from the last three months my thinking changed. I want to continue this blog because in twenty years when my kids want to hear stories about their childhood I want to be able to show them. And not just the big things like birthdays and holidays (those are great and I am totally obsessed with everything festive) but I want them to see the every day things. The small moments of fun that I so easily forget. So here is to a post that I hope to update a whole lot more then just twice a year.  Here are some of my favorite pictures from these last few months!
