New normal

It has been a little over a week since my last blog entry.

Since then.. I have been a little better since losing Auntie. I am getting back into a routine and trying to keep pushing forward from this. It has been hard but it's doable.. or I guess has to be because what choice do I really have?

None.

A few updates:

Brooke is loving school. (I think) I see so much of Brooke in me. I feel as though I was her as a child. I know how she feels and I have an idea of what she is thinking but I wish I could somehow get her feelings out of her. Who am I to say that right? I am 28 years old and it has taking me this long to deal with my own feelings and emotions.. I hope she knows everything she feels is okay.

Charlie is doing great. We have PT and OT once a week. I am so ready for her to potty train! She has adjusted to her alone time when B is at school just fine. She is excited for next year when she gets to go to school.
We are thinking of casting her right knee again to see if we can get any more ROM (range of motion) in it. She has finally agreed to this. She misses her wheels she's said.

Danny recently got pre-approved for a mortgage. We have been house hunting the past week. It's been fun, nerve racking, and a little stressful with the girls but we are so grateful and excited for a future here in Florida. If we haven't told you yet, we will be staying! Nothing feels more right.

My blog has always been my random thoughts and always will be. I am sure I have mentioned this in the past. But I've been feeling the urge to speak/write what is on my mind lately so here I am.


Love Always,
Kristin

New Year, New Me!

Okay okay! I know that saying is so cliche but in this case it's 100% true!

2019 has been a great one so far.
We have done so many fun things.
We have a lot of hard times ahead
but I know we will get through them.

Danny and us girls are STRONG!

A few things that I am working on are..
Eating healthier
Exercising at least 5 times a week
At least 10K steps a day
No alcohol for 60 days
Mindset Reset.. being more positive.

So far I am kicking a** and taking names! 

Charlie has begun her serial casting this week. She is handling it like a champ. Her first surgery is Feb 6th and the second is Feb 20th. I am looking forward to getting these done and behind us.
I am ready to focus on her recovery and her physical therapy.

I am completely loving Florida! I never want to leave.
It has been odd not knowing what our future holds for us.
Not knowing where we will end up.
But it has also made life exciting.

Love Always,
Kristin

I want to blog again.

hello,

I know it has been forever. Today as I am sitting on my couch I thought of something.. how much I really miss blogging. Both kids are napping (for now) so I hurry and set my laptop up, write the title and boom Charlie is awake. She is a cat napper. Doesn't nap for longer than 20 minutes usually. Unless its right before bedtime, then she will sleep 4 hours and be up all night. That's okay, I love her. You may be wondering, who Charlie is. She is the newest addition to the family. That's right, I now have two beautiful little girls that I love oh so much. They keep me busy that is for sure. So busy I can't even shower!! Gross, I know. Today I am BEGGING Danny to come home for lunch so I can jump in the shower real quick.

So my days lately consist of changing bums, pumping milk (like a cow), cleaning, and being a personal chef. I haven't really been able to do anything for me. I'm still trying to get the hang of having two kids under the age of two. For example like my shop, Bows Over Bros.. I'm dying to get my site back up and running. I seriously haven't had the time. This weekend! That is my main goal! Wish me luck!

I am going to have to keep this post short and sweet but I hope to be back for good because blogging is such a good outlet for me mentally and emotionally. I am not even sure if anyone even blogs anymore?

Love Always, Kristin
