I bought Chloe a Dora backpack at Walmart tonight. She currently just has a little bag I got for a dollar at Target (green with a panda bear), which is what I use for her Mother's Morning Out. She's always wanting to wear Reagan's backpack, though, and is a HUUUUUUGE Dora fan (don't judge me, I have to get work done somehow ( Read more... )

I have been more motivated in life lately. I don't know if it's the weight loss or just forcing myself to wear makeup every morning (or both, or something else), but I just feel better.

I took a shower without anyone here to help with the babies! Chloe slept in the bouncy seat in the bathroom. I got Reagan downstairs, her diaper changed, and breakfast on the table (banana and cheerios) without any help! Chloe hung out in the bassinet and started fussing right as I finished with Reagan ( Read more... )
