Life lately has finally seemed to slow down. So thankful for my sweet hardworking husband who supports me being a stay at home mom. I love my life this way and would never want it any way else. 8 months out of the workforce over here and treasuring every moment. :) For the first time in over a year, I feel like we have a solid schedule around here. Life is so much less chaotic in general than it was at this time last year; however, I am sure our entire routine will change up once again when summer vacation starts!
After summer I cannot believe that I will have a 3rd grader, a Kindergartner, and a Preschooler. WOW. Sad that my babies are growing up so quickly, but very very excited for them at the same time. I know they are ready, but I am not sure if I am. This is the first time that I will not have a baby in the house in 8 years. Crazy!
Hopefully I can use my newly found free time to lose some weight. I am pretty sure I cannot continue to call this extra weight baby fat now that my youngest is almost 3. I actually just signed up for Weight Watchers again a few weeks ago, but I will save the details on this for another entry. I have not been on the plan long enough to give an official update. I am already having trouble staying on the bandwagon. I managed to lose weight on WW in 2006 after my first baby was born, so I am hopeful that I will be able to lose again.
In other news, we are not moving from this rental after all. I have been thinking about Psalm 46:10 alot lately. Be Still and know that I am God... a passage that I need to hear right now. As badly as I want to move, to find a big house out in the country where my little family will have plenty of room to grow, I know that now is not the time. So, for now, I am feeling very thankful for our cozy little home in the suburbs. We are lucky to have a roof over our heads, to still have this house, and to still have each other.
