We are in a readjustment period. I haven't slept well in a week because I am not used to someone next to me in bed, particularly someone who makes noise. Kyle doesn't snore loudly or consistently, but he does some weird breathing things and I get woken up. I know I'll adjust, but right now I'm tired.
It's so nice having him around to help with driving and kid stuff in the evenings. I was getting pretty tired. I've been cooking actual dinners and that makes me happy, too. The kids are mostly happy he's home, but I think we were in a good place and routine and now it's a bit disrupted. Everyone needs to be kind and patient and we'll work out all the kinks.
We are almost done with a very busy 2 months of sports and activities. Track ends tomorrow and soccer ends in a couple of weeks. I can feel summer inching its way here. The pool is open and Kyle took the kids last Saturday when it was a lovely 80 degrees. I got some herbs and seeds to start the garden; we just need to prep it first. The strawberries are ripening and the blueberries look good. Time to get the deck furniture out and put the hammock up. I love this time of year.
Can you believe it's May already?? Wow!
Here are some photos from our recent adventures.
Hayden's been learning to high jump at track. The coach says he's a natural.
Finishing a tough 1500m race. He got under 6 minutes, which was his season goal!
"Don't take my picture."
The girls before the performance.
Me with my munchkins on Mother's Day. I had a great day and got amazing cards that made me happy. Kyle made a delicious dinner and my nap was epic.
In March Hayden turned 12 and was ordained as a deacon in the Aaronic Priesthood. He was so excited and looked so handsome. It was a great day for him and our family.
