Today was okay.

Is anyone local, or not local if you're willing to pay shipping, looking for a Stellosphere for Christmas? We're about to donate this. It's barely been used.

I downloaded an app to make phone backgrounds and have spent an embarrassing amount of time on it. It's called Patternator and it is very fun.

Day three #septemberwhole30 and finally got my hands on some Primal Kitchen Chipotle Lime Mayo. 👐👐👐 Feeling good but tired.

[honestnicole]

We needed a hard reset so Southey and I are joining in on #septemberwhole30. Yesterday was technically day one, but we're starting today. I'm already looking forward to #whole30 sleep! #itstartswithfood

Big day, guys.

So proud of this big kid! #blantonsdoschool

It's official. He's a kindergartner. #blantonsdoschool

Don't let anyone tell you that the twos are terrible. It's the threes and then the early fours. Mav gives great hugs, sings super loud to the radio and is incredibly athletic. But he is also argumentative and insanely frustrating. He will argue passionately about having four arms if you told him he only had two or tell you he is blind but can still see. His big brother is an easy favorite because of his ease with adults, but this Mama's boy will always be perfection for me. #momtweet

We saw Beau's new classroom, met his teacher and got our first homework assignment. #blantonsdoschool

[honestnicole]

Seriously though. They both cried the whole time. It was extremely stressful.

Daycare graduation was real bad.

I really enjoy this odd, ugly picture of us. #marriage

Cat documentation part 2: we call this one turtle.

Bounce.

Southey and I decided this morning that parenting has aged us almost as much as being president has aged Obama.

Last night we had ice cream with Beau's future kindergarten classmates then tested out the playground for good measure. School officially starts on the 29th. Things are getting real. #blantonsdoschool
