attitude is everything.

Ever since we had Vin we have been adjusting to our new way of life. Even though we have been down the newborn road before, it is still hard to adjust to it all over again. Schedules, crying, feedings, the great balancing act with two children, and trying to find time to do the usual stuff like laundry, dishes, and cooking...who are we kidding I don't cook! ;)After a couple of really horrendous nights with Vin, and me waking up being a complete witch...I decided I needed an attitude adjustment. I woke up one morning feeling far from refreshed from yet another rocky night, but I was determined to "make the most of it".
It is amazing how just making a mental note to "make the most of it" has paid off big this past week. I have a cleaner house, I don't miss Coke, I have played more, I swear my clothes are already fitting better, and I actually have cooked four days in row. Can I get a what, what!?
My house is not spotless, I haven't lost any weight, and my hair still ends up looking like I didn't do anything with it...but with my new found good attitude I seem to be looking on the bright side of things, and I kinda like it!

I too am working on this. It does feel nice when it all comes together just by my attitude adjustment.

You are da bomb. I am so proud. Especially to do that with two littles. Kids are hard, man! But they are awesome. And yours are most adorable!

Your kids are so cute, and you are an amazing momma. Who cares if your hair isn't done? Just enjoy it! (I need daily reminders of this, too.)

I just sort of stumbled upon your blog and realized that you looked very familiar! I think we lived in the same ward (Parliament Park) like FOREVER ago! Anyways we both had baby daughters at the time, I think they must be very close in age.

Your kids are amazingly adorable and you are such a talented writer! Just thought I would say hi!

Isn't it amazing what a little attitude boost can do for the soul? Even sleep deprived! And it helps if the kids are super cute too. :)
