I know I won't totally feel like myself again until Gavin and I are sleeping through the night, but things have started to feel more normal around here. Normal meaning everything takes twice as long to do and half the things that need to be done actually, maybe, perhaps will get done by the end of the day. But I figure that as long as Ella is still laughing and dancing, and Gavin is still eating and sleeping, and Adam and I are still keeping our sanity, we've basically accomplished our goal for the day. I'm am starting to tackle the days solo, with naps and getting out the door the hardest to coordinate. It helps when everyone cooperates, but more than likely someone needs a last minute diaper change, or someone spit up, or someone decided she just didn't feel like putting on her shoes. Still, our hectic household has been full of a lot of love and firsts and amazement at how precious children really can be. Not to say that I'm not looking forward to more sleep and then more energy to tackle our everyday.

| Hamming it up in her playroom. Ella loves to slide. |
 |
| Our first time out together just Mother & Daughter in a while. We enjoyed grocery shopping, sampling muffins and sharing a smoothie. I love my little girl. |
 |
| A rest break after tummy time, which Gavin is rocking. |
 |
| My first time taking both kids out on my own. Picked up lunch and met up with Adam at work. |
 |
| Ella loves driving around on the golf cart. |
 |
| Kiddos got a crash course in the family business. Gavin slept through it all. |
 |
| You know things are going back to normal when I get a Saturday morning to myself. Got a mani-pedi and some clothes shopping done. I missed Adam and the kids every minute I was gone. |
