Running in Circles

Blogging has taken a backseat lately. I want to be documenting the little things but keeping up with two kids is not joke.

Here's a quick update at life lately and cheers to this week of actually blogging.

1. Hazel's imagination these days is so fun to listen to. She's all about storytelling, play time, asking questions, and reasoning her will. She is starting to get really impatient with Henry and has started pushing him frequently. She sees many time-outs a day but is always quick to apologize after. She's been obsessed with humming songs and the library. We just stocked up craft supplies and play-doh, but I really wish I could get her in dance or some other activity.

2. Henry is trying so hard to talk, He knows exactly what he wants and will be sure to tell you, but not quite in an actual word. He's obsessed with  animals but especially BIRDS. He loves cars, trucks, balls, pulling hair, being outside, putting shoes on, and eating. Henry eats us out of house and home, but he's still wearing 6-12 month clothes at 17 months old. After we put Hazel to bed, Henry has 10-15 minutes with just mom and dad and he just loves it. you can see it all over his face.

3. Brice is running and working and putting the kids to bed more frequently alone now. He's up for a promotion in the next month that would make a BIG difference for us so I have to keep reminding him to keep the questionable jokes out of the workplace. He's running faster than ever and is always shopping for new kicks, or running gear. He just turned 29 and I warned him next year he's getting a big party!

4. Breann is the mom. ha! In April I started teaching fitness classes (circuit training and Pilates) and have really enjoyed it! I've been feeling a little burnt out from running after the marathon so I've been running less and doing more high intensity interval training. Don't get me wrong, I'm still running but much much less.  I'm itching to move ( no plans for it though), counting the weeks until we're ready to buy a car, and enjoying being a mom. I could really use a long nap.
