This is real life. The truth is, I'm not that great at it. But this is it, and it is my life. You want me to post pictures of what I wear every day? You'd have a collaboration of different yoga pants, and oversized t-shirts--some worn multiple days in a row {cringe}! You want to know my toddler lunch meal ideas? They often vary between dino nuggets, pb&j, or ravioli--but hey, at least it's the frozen kind and not Chef Boyardee...although that has made a few appearances! You want pictures of my home decor? Well my house is usually a mess. There are dishes in the sink and laundry to be put away. Most days, with my two crazy sidekicks calling the shots, I don't have time to shower, and rarely even do my hair {am I really admitting this in a public forum?!}! But this is life, and it is my life. And I'm lucky enough to get to share it with an amazing husband and the 3 cutest kids in the world, so no matter how you look it, I'm the luckiest!

COUSINS!

Melia loves her cousins!  Here she is with her cousin Kali.  They are both playing as fairies!  Kali is just 15 months older than Melia and it's super fun to watch them grow up together.
Here she is with her little cousin Ashley.  Ashley is almost EXACTLY one year younger than Melia. 
 
Aren't they cute in their twinner dresses?
 I love Ash's smile here.
 Here they are playing together.  It's so fun now that Ash is getting old enough to really interact with Melia.  Melia loves "Baby Ashley."
A few weeks ago we went on a nature walk up the Lagoon Trail with Kristy, Hailey, Aubrey and Ashley.  We walked up to a fun pond with ducks and geese.  Melia liked watching them...
 Until the geese started chasing her!
Here's beautiful Aubrey.
 Melia was trying to climb up the hill and fell right on her face and slid all the way back down.
Here's Hailey trying to help her.  Poor little Melia--she does not look happy.
 I just think this is such a sweet picture.
 Walking back down the trail.
Cuties.
 She always wants to be a big girl.  She wouldn't let me help her push the stroller.
 5 cute cousins!

I just realized I was snapping pictures of Melia falling down the hill and not helping her . . . humm I think that is the sign of a committed photographer! :P I can't wait until Ashley is older and they can play!!!
