These past few weeks

Clara looooves to wear hats and helmets and put on our shoes all day long. This combo had me laughing.

She can focus so intently on her favorite movie and have nothing phase her. Plus she is so pretty. 

It is a blessing and a curse that this sippy cup is the cure for anything with this girl.

Sunday selfie. Clara is in there somewhere.

Maelin stopped by and the boys actually read books instead of fighting.

Shopping with Clara is something I dread bc she is so hard. She refuses to be in the cart in any way shape or form, so we have to get creative to get her to calm down. I am a pro at having her on my shoulders the entire trip.

Sunday walk with Dad before the cold hit.

Wa'a came running our and told me that he would cook dinner for me and I could sit and relax. :)

Erwin snuck pictures of me raking leaves for over an hour. My front and backyard combined are easily 30 plus bags of leaves. I still have more to rake.

Kekai does not know how to tell me she loves me, but she knows how to show it.

Last Sunday we all were squeezed on our tiny chair and laughing our faces off and being goofy and teasing each other. I love us.

Ick. Wa'a is licking Clara's back. But like I said, we were being goofy.

We picked up Erwin late from work and stopped at the store for milk. Wa'a woke up in his car seat crying and so I held him until Erwin came back out. It was such a tender moment to have my 4 yr old son still have me as his comfort and protector. It felt sweet and special and I was overwhelmed with gratitude for this time where I am his special someone.
