Our Five Ring Circus: A Glimpse of August

A Glimpse of August

The past 7 weeks have flown by! While dealing with the busyness of life, getting two kids ready and off to school, and adjusting to life with a newborn, I got caught up in the chaos. Although life isn't slowing down at all (I actually think it's busier!), I'm glad to be on a schedule again!

August went by in a flash, and I'm sad that the summer is over. It was a busy month for us!

We started the month by welcoming our baby girl to the world, and bringing her home.

We got to introduce our pride and joy to our family.

They love having a baby sister. She's a lot of fun to dress up!

Dylan and Lexie had sleepovers and spent a lot of time together.

I enjoyed spending time with my big kids before school started!

All that sleeping made her grow SO fast!

  2. Just wanted you to know I have missed reading your blog. Seems I just kinda fell apart and didn't have time for anything. I see we had our babies about the same time! I look forward to reading lots more in the future!
