I PROMISE someday I'll get Bean's Birth Story published for the public, and then maybe I'll get Nugget's written too..., but in the meantime I feel like I should "get back at it", because being a Momma is all of the feels in one little box, and I wish I could really share that with everyone!
For anyone out there reading this that doesn't know me personally, here's a life update that should help out with any future posts...
I gave birth to our second baby girl on May 8, so we are officially a family of FIVE: Scott (Dad, or the Hammer), ME, Big Bro or "Socky", Bean, and NUGGET! Big Bro is a teenager now. It seems like I was blogging about a nine year old, and now he is in his last year of middle school. Bean just turned two, which makes me feel even more silly that I haven't completed her birth story! And Nugget is now six months, which means she is closer to her first birthday than she is to her birth day, and that makes my Momma heart a little sad.
Big Bro is thirteen and in the eighth grade. Sometimes raising a teenage boy is incredibly difficult, especially due to the fact that I am only 25 myself (Scott is 8 years older than me), but it is also a lot of fun and, as parenting always is, rewarding. He is bright, imaginative, loving, and funny. He can also be moody, lazy, irresponsible, and a bit of a space cadet, but hey! as I said, he is a teenager! He loves his sisters, and they love him.
Bean is two, which means terrible twos, and yes there are so, so real. If I wrote a self-help book the title would be: Help! My Child is Wild, and I Don't Know How to Tame Her! But that's okay, because as they say, "this too shall pass". Time has moved in hyper speed since she was born, and before we know it she'll be headed off to school. Bean is smart, loving, sweet, and oh so much fun. She is a little light, and I get to call her mine! She is talking more and more, knows her ABCs, most of her numbers, animals and their noises, and so much more. She is beautiful, and her hair is gorgeous! I know it seems silly to call out her hair, but if you'd seen it, you'd know why. Maybe my next post will have pictures...
Nugget is just barely six months. She is beautiful. She is so happy and chill; she's my chill baby. (I think God knew I wouldn't be able to handle two littles if they were both like Bean.) She's scooting about now, has two teeth, and we just started solid food!
I'd update you on my life too, but ^that's^ pretty much it. I am retiring from my short stint as a Scentsy Independent Consultant, but don't worry, I have a new, exciting adventure just around the river bend...
So there's that! I promise I won't wait two years to post again!
