A much needed day at home

We are always on the go.  I get bored sitting around the house and I think the girls do too, so I usually cram our days full of play-dates, pool time, running errands, and other special outings. This week alone we had pool time, two water-fun play groups, tumbling class, a trip to Southern Prep for fun, and a few lunches out with friends.  I had something fun planned for us today, but after a mild breakdown by both girls yesterday evening I had to back out of our plans and declare a day at home.  Besides a quick trip to the grocery store this morning we've done nothing and it has been just what we needed. 

I mention this a lot, but I love watching Handley and Harper play together.  Of course they have their moments of sibling rivalry, but for the most part they entertain each other so well and keep each other great company. Today while I was cleaning up the dishes from lunch I overheard them giggling together and just smiled to myself as they played.  I'll probably jinx myself by saying this but life feels so easy right now.  Easy and wonderful.  Two kids is definitely busy.  Two kids means no breaks for Mommy.  Two kids also means life-long playmates, friends, and love.   They are at such adorable ages and with Harper walking now the two of them are the best of friends.  Harper squeals with excitement each morning when I tell her it's time to go get Handley up.  Handley is so loving and says the most adorable things to Harper.  Today when Harper fell and bumped her head she sweetly kissed it and asked, "Are you OK baby girl?"  How did I get to be so lucky to be the mom of these two adorable little girls???
