Favorite Moments

Being a stay at home mom is definitely one of the hardest jobs in the world but also the most rewarding.  Here are some of my favorite moments that I get to enjoy everyday:

- cuddling with each of my kids, all three are very busy but they each have at least one moment everyday where they want me to hold them, so of course I drop everything to take advantage of this moment because it is rare, I cherish these cuddles

- feeding Kyler his bottle is also a moment I love, it's just him and I in my favorite rocking chair staring into each others eyes, with some singing of course, I love this time so much that he will definitely be taking a bottle much longer than recommended =)

- homeschooling, definitely challenging some days but also so rewarding, I get quality time with all 3 kids that I love (Kyler hangs out in the ergo), and everyday I watch things click in their little brains, I love seeing those ah-ha moments, nothing could be more rewarding than watching your kids learn while spending time with them

- I also love reading, I'm very fortunate that all 3 kids also love to be read to, so many times a day we take adventures to far off places thanks to the many great books out there

- cooking, I love to cook and all 3 kids love to help (Kyler being in the ergo of course), so we have lots of quality time in the kitchen preparing meals and baking yummy treats

- ergo time, it may appear that Kyler spends a lot of time in the ergo (which for those of you wondering is a baby carrier that puts him on my chest or back), I love this time, I love to be so close to him and he seems to love it too, he always looks up at me with the sweetest smile and the look in his eyes says I love you and love being close to you

- playtime, I love just watching Kristin & Kade play, they have such great imaginations and everyday they pretend to be someone else going on random adventures, I also love that they include Kyler in their imaginative play, of course he has no idea what's going on, he just loves being around his brother and sister

There are so many more moments everyday, but these are by far my favorites. =)
