Starting back up.

So my last blog post was when Edison was a newborn!!! Obviously life has been busy and wild!! Maybe I feel the urge to write after we have a big life change, and this year has brought a lot!
Just to name them real quick , without diving into the experience:
1.Shane was offered a new position on Jimmy Johns, which brought on a move.
2. We discovered we would be expecting a 6th child.
3. We moved out of our farm house and into my parents homes for a bit, while Shane was already living in VA.
4. We traveled a lot! NYC, Philly, Orlando, Louisville, Indianapolis for Gen Con! And so many other day travels!!
5. Missed Shane a lot.
6. We finally found a home in Richmond Va!
7. Last week we welcomed our 6th little love, Evelyn, into our family!! I

It’s been such a wild year! Being that it’s now November, and the year is almost over, I have been reflecting on all this year brought us. You know the saying “The days are long but the years are short”?! Well my saying is “the days fly by and the years are short!” Seriously , the days seem to zoom on by, even when we are just at home, nowhere to go, there is always much to do. It just goes by so incredibly quick.

Today we are hanging in my bed, snuggling , watching movies, maybe a board game or so. With baby girl being only 9 days old, I still need to force myself to rest! Not just “not cook or clean” but actually lay and rest:) So that is today’s plan and it still will go back so so fast.

I would love to be able to write a bit more on this blog and make it more into a journal of our days. I am thinking a title change is needed and an explosions of posts :)
So if you want to tag along and read about our lives, life of a family of 8,  please stick around :)

It’s Wednesday, middle of the week! Let’s be joyful and find ourselves smiling , more than not ❤️

( Its always myself or Shane, behind the camera! Working with what we have!) 

Unless....unless we use the timer option :)
