Babies and wineries

Yesterday was so fun. We were having the middle floor painted and a new door installed in the basement so we needed to be out of the house. Kendall’s in town and the newly 21 year old wanted to hit up a winery. Well there’s one 2 miles from our house so we all decided to go. It was gorgeous out so really a no brainer we needed to be outside. Bull run winery is soooo family friendly. There’s an adults only side and a family side. Their “security guard” basically was like hey family of four, right this way. Aka: stay away from the adults only side. Got it. There were soooo many kids there and people bro hit toys and bubbles and wagons. Jack’s truck radar went off immediately and he made a new friend. I think he was using him for his truck but whatever. I’ve been searching for this feeling of “home” since Florida. Yesterday as I sipped my Virginia grown wine looking at my husband, sisters, cousin and children, I realized I am finally starting to feel settled and content. This feels more permanent and we’re not constantly looking for our next adventure or way out. This morning as I was washing dishes I watched mike and jack in the backyard playing together... I felt such Pride that we can provide this home, a yard, parks and a wonderful life for Charlie and jack. I think we will find happiness here for years to come!




Aunt Kendall in action 





Jack pissed that dad made him get off the fence 










Not really getting the concept of blowing bubbles. But nailed the concept of eating them... 




Jack spit out whatever he had in his mouth on Kendall’s hand. To a mom, totally normal, to a 21 year old aunt in college.. maybe also Normal?

Art show at school. It was super cute- they had all of their artwork up in the hallways for us to see.  My friend Sam had her baby (neighbors) and I’ve been trying to help out here and there. This was when she was still pregnant but we all went together to literacy night at the school so Sam could have a break. It was really cute.  Wanted every single bow in her hair for nighttime. None of them were in when she woke up.  Oh, poor jack. He had a realllly bad fall at the skate park. Blood everywhere, coming from his mouth and nose. I thought he broke his nose, lost some teeth, etc. we went to the dentist to make sure his mouth was ok and some how everything was ok. He got lucky! It was so hard to see him hit the ground and essentially face plant on the concrete. My mama heart was broken.  Some hot days! Back to the skate park 🤷🏼‍♀️ Field trip! His face healed realllly quickly We got Charlie a new mattress so we rode the old one down the stairs 🫣

Went in for lunch with the boys. Yes, the pizza is still the same from when we were kids.  Charlie changing Quinn’s diaper. But don’t worry, we are now potty trained!  I got a pedi on Mother’s Day and Quinn came. She freaking loved it.  Checking out how the washing machine works  Thais a good brother!  We got to bring cupcakes into Quinn’s class for snack. We sang to her and she felt super special :) Safety first  Quinn walked with Sam to pick up Harper the other day.  Quinn is 3!!!!! I figured this was probably the last birthday I could get away with keeping it low key so that’s what we did! A couple kids migrated to our yard and we had cupcakes :) And some sweaty fun  All she wanted was a dog that walks. Sorry bud it’s the closest thing you’ll ever have as a real dog 😂
