Essence of Now: Busy, Busy, Busy…

Thank. Goodness. It’s. Friday.

This week has been LONG. Very long.

In related news, spring needs to hurry up and get here already. Because these kids? Tired of being stuck in the house.

And I am kind of tired of running on this…

And there are only so many extra long baths that I can give before the little ones start catching on to my tricks…

On the plus side, we have had plenty of extra time to snuggle under warm blankets as the kids curled up and read story after story after story…

And we were also able to squeeze in a few crafts which occupied them for about 2 minutes…

A certain little one is still recovering from his 6 month vaccinations, so all he wanted to do was snuggle.

 

There is no way I could ever resist that. I may or may not be wrapped around his little finger.

What about you? How was your week?

I am a busy mom of four, trying to keep my head above water as I swim through the sea of testosterone that has taken over our house. I'm a coffee addict and book lover. My family is everything to me and I often write about my journey through motherhood. This blog captures those special moments in life. This life isn’t easy. It’s not always full of sunshine and rainbows. It’s hard. It’s a struggle. But it’s MY life. Welcome to it. Don't want to miss a post? Be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed.

  1. I know how you feel. I am so unbelievably tired of winter. Noah’s been so cranky and whiny lately after being cooped up inside for so, so long. I can’t believe your sweet baby boy is 6 months already! Holy cow!

    I agree… spring needs to get here. But with this recent snow storm it looks like we’re going to be stuck inside for a while!

    I still had sick kids this week and started feeling crappy myself. We had our first real snowfall and of course I was carpool mom and had to drive in it. Hoping the weekend is better than the week was. I love the effect of the blur in the pictures. And weeks like this, I wish I drank coffee.

  5. I can never turn down snuggles, either. And I, too, am so ready for spring!

    It’s nice that as busy as things are you still are getting some cuddle time. I find the mental recharge of quality time and cuddles is *nearly* as good as actual recharging and resting.

  8. I feel you. It’s been a long week here, too, and we’ve been stuck in the house a lot. I’m not sure my kids would ever get tired of extra long baths, though!

    This is the third post (in a row) that has mentioned it’s time for spring to be here. I’m sensing a theme here….

    Busy is good, but snuggles are better. :) Beautiful photos.
