Kevin has started back at the fire station working 24 hour shifts. It's been an adjustment to our new schedule. I think the one difference that I've found with our new schedule is the lack of adult conversation/interaction that I have. I find myself starting up random conversations with anyone...lol.
Over the last few weeks, I have checked off a few items on the "Mother of Two" Accomplishment List. I have conquered the outlet mall and the grocery store with two children. The grocery store went a little better than the outlet mall but I would consider both successful outings...I still accomplished what I set out to do. My next "check-off" will be going to church by myself with two. I will attempt that this Sunday since Kevin is working 24. Please pray for me...that we are all dressed, on time, and still have positive attitudes when we get to church!
Aside from doing solo outings, we have also made a few family memories. A trip to the Norfolk Zoo, a birthday pool party, a trip to Charlottesville to see Great Grandma and Grandma, and a Fourth of July get together with family have created many memorable moments for our family. This really is what life is all about...creating memories to strengthen us as people and as a family. It really is what keeps me going...striving to make many memories for my children, whether it's something as simple as finger painting at home, going to the library, or an outing to the Zoo.

Jackson at the zoo! At the playplace in the mall!
A sweet gift from my loves!
