I was doing some major sucking in for these pictures haha! Any skirt that hits above my bump is making it look way bigger than it actually is.. which was happening here so I tried to hide it the best I could ;) I think one of my first hair tutorials I ever posted I used wire around a half up pony.. if anyone happens to find that post tell me because for some reason I couldn't find it! I remembered how much I love playing around with wire and hairstyles so I ordered a bunch of wire from Amazon and decided to try it in mine and Rosie's hair. I sure do love matching my kiddos. Atticus is very particular about what he wears lately, which is kind of adorable.. so I don't get to match him as much anymore! Speaking of getting kids dressed, it is cute because we have been having the kids earn money (just dimes and quarters) for doing chores and they put them in their see through piggy banks and having them save up to buy a toy they want and talking more about how things we get cost money etc. Now whenever I put on Atticus's clothes he gets so excited and says "mama you saved your money in your piggy bank and bought this for me?!?! aww that's sooo nice mama!!!" haha it is soo cute.

We just got back from camping for a few days – we went to Christopher Creek here in Arizona which is about 2 hours away! The weather was amazing and it was so beautiful up there! I love that we have that so close — two hours really went by so so fast and I hope we go up there more. One day I would love to go in on a cabin with my family up there so we can go up there on weekends. I know we can feel close to nature anywhere we are if you pay attention to the little things, but I really especially love the feeling of being in the woods! David set up a projector and we watched a movie in hammocks and the kids went fishing and were so excited to catch some fishies (I realized this weekend a lot of my readers are against fishing, I know everyone has different lifestyles but both David and I grew up fishing – I have so many happy memories being outdoors bonding with my family while fishing on the lake and while I don’t eat fish I am not against fishing trout and I hope that anyone who is can still be respectful of us and our decisions! Thank you!)

Hope you all had a really great weekend!!!
