The 20 Nights of Zabies

We documented the last 20 night in our home in New York by taking a photo every night before bed of the girls. It was fun and adorably precious some nights while other nights were more like pulling teeth since the girls were sick for many of those last days. 

We documented them to share but never got around to it. 

Although it is 4 months late- better late than never, right!?

 I love looking back at these photos and seeing all the many faces, emotions and attitudes of these two! I seriously cracked up laughing at Kensington's many crying pictures while Quinn tried to comfort her. I can laugh now but I'm sure I was crying with her in the moment since Josh was away at his new job for most of these photos. 

Love these little ladies something big, y'all. Like my heart explodes everyday!

Love One Another

Happy Valentine's week y'all! 

My heart has never been so full. 

Can we talk about how adorable these Love One Another Shirts are?

Adorable.

Things are getting pretty crazy around here with relators, painters, packing, cleaning and organizing for showing {since folks these days want your house to look as though no one lives there and HGTV themselves came in to stage it!}

Even though it has been a stressful week our little ladies manage to keep us grounded and help us to find many smiles amidst the chaos. 

How sweet is this sight. 

One of many things I will cherish about our home here is the way they sit and swing their feet, in their robes, before bed. 

Happy Love Week!!! Give your loves of all sizes plenty of hugs and kisses this week.

Linking up with Annie and Natalie.

When Daddy is away, the girls will play

To say that Josh travels a lot is an understatement... He travels more now than ever before. 

I have come to love the days that I have alone with my little ladies

and have special routines for when he is away. 

My favorite part of those days is that we spend them in our pajamas. 

The girls love to take their clothes off after supper and run around with only their diaper on. 

Today they only made it down to their onesies and were as happy as could be!

We spent the day dancing and playing our hearts out. 

The girls even exercised {jumped up and down} with me. It was adorable.

Can you say personality?

They just melt my heart when they give each other love. 

Happy Hump Day friends! 

One Last Time | Swinging Together

Over the holiday we had some crazy weather here in CNY. I mean bipolar, hormonal weather like I am used to in my deep south roots. We had no snow on Christmas, which should be illegal if you ask me, and the weekend following Christmas was warm enough to go without a coat!! Then we had a light dusting of snow around New Year's day, followed by a couple of inches the next day only for it to totally melt a day later then refreeze from a crazy wind storm! Whew! Did you get all of that? Crazy, I tell ya! Since we were experiencing such beautiful days we went on many walks and took the Zabies to the park with my parents. Quinn ran to the swings as usual and so the swinging began. Kensington quickly made her way to the swings as well. Around here we share a swing. I love how they sit in the swing together and I run from front to back to peek a boo them! Their laughs are contagious! This particular time I noticed that they fit much tighter than before. They have been growing like weeds but I seriously hadn't considered that one day they would no longer be able to share a swing. I nearly cried when I realized that this was probably that last time they would swing together. I want them to share a swing always. I love the look of four little legs hanging from the bucket together. It's a twin thing, for sure, and it is heartbreaking for this mama that her babes are growing up. Didn't we just bring them home from the hospital yesterday? Many of times I haven't realized something was our last until it was over. I never really mourned the fact that they weren't going to use their rock and plays, Mamaroos, kick and play pianos or jumperoos again. They just sat in place for an extended time until either Josh or I decided it was time to pack them up since they hadn't been used for such a long time. It's weird that this has hit me so hard. I'm hoping we get a few more nice days for them to share a swing again but every time  I will feel like it is their last time. I wasn't great at photographing each of their swinging experiences since I was usually alone and didn't realize then that I would be so nostalgic.
