There are moments every day that I know will eventually become distant memories. It terrifies me to think I'll forget them. It's the little tiny things that my kids don't think I see, the subtle look in my husband's eyes that make me know I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, and the daily inspiration that my friends and family provide me. I feel an immense need to capture them all, so here is where I will compile the moments that make up my story.

Naomi is so strong!

Today marked another big milestone for Miss Bugs! Naomi is now capable of standing up on her own without any assitance. I was vacuuming the downstairs before heading upstairs to give the kids baths and get them to bed, and she was playing with the popper that the kids use as their "vacuum." She wanted to push it around and also didn't want to let go of it even for a second. Probably because she knew that Nicolas would swipe it if given the opportunity. Then she just stood up!! I was so shocked! She didn't stay up very long. I think she maybe shocked herself! Then she did it again, just stood right up. Naomi then proceeded to walk down the hallway following me with her vacuum. It's just the best thing in the world to see the wonder in your childs face when they accomplish something new. They're just as surprised as you are, and just so proud!

My day wouldn't be complete without a funny Nicolasism either! While I was vacuuming, Nicolas went shopping on the stairs where I had put all the stuff that needed to go upstairs. When I got done vacuuming, Nicolas told me I just had to come see his new shoes. He was carrying around a shopping bag full of stuff. I asked him where he got his new shoes, and without missing a beat, he told me "Nordstrom!" LOL this kid is learning some good stuff from me! ;)

After learning she could stand up by herself, Naomi decided to slimb up in the tower with Nicolas for a water break.
