Random things I love about being a mom:

** Finding small toys in my shoes, purse, couch cushions, the dryer, etc.
** Hearing my boys play and laugh together- it's the BEST sound ever.
** I hate laundry but I do love folding miniature clothes.
** I always have a new drawing or art project to display at work or on the fridge.
** I have the BEST subject to scrapbook.
** Having an excuse to take treats to church. :)
** Never being able to leave the house without a thousand hugs and kisses.
** Having someone tell me I look beautiful on my worst day.
** Watching my kids sleep.
** Playing with trains and superheroes.
** Getting a big hug at the end of a long work day when I pick Karter and Zachary.
** Being able to magically cure a bump or scrape with only a kiss (and sometimes a bandaid).
** Unconditional love- seriously. Sometimes I've gotten so mad at them that I feel like they'll hate me forever, but they don't and they're giving me hugs within the hour.

Although it's exhausting and sometimes frustrating, I LOVE being a mom. And I couldn't ask for two better boys!

This is our goofy pic (Karter is playing dead):

About Me

My photo
My cute little fam consists of me, my partner in crime Dick, and our little monkeys: Karter and Zachary. My sweet, dedicated husband is trying to build my dream life for me. But for the time being, I have two full time jobs- mommyhood and a piece of cake desk job with an awesome boss. We stay super busy but have lots of fun in the process. I've become obsessed with scrapbooking lately. I've done it for years but never really had the time. I still don't but now I have my little scrap cubby that I don't have to clean up for dinner, etc. It makes things much easier and now I can scrap when I have a few minutes. Which is really not that often but I'm grateful for what I have.
