I was folding laundry on the bed and I was watching them and it was the cutest thing!!! I was so amused and so delighted! My heart melts as I watch this again. I wish I caught the entire play session because this is only the last 10 seconds. I think she is copying me on how I play with E with her stuffed animals!

There is a cold going on in our house. All of us have it, to a degree. V has it the worst. You can see her shiny red cheeks that have oil on them because they are so dry from the heater and wiping noses.

For a Christmas gift, “momo” gave V a bag of organic lollipops, which she thinks are the best things in the world now. This is a Snapchat sent to Auntie Eunice (“ee-mo” means “aunt” in Korean and V couldn't/didn’t want to say that so she just repeats the last syllable) to thank her for the yumminess

Also, we had another appointment and they checked E’s stats

One of the most worrisome night so far. This horrific crime scene includes countless dirty wipes, soiled clothes and sheets, and a figuratively dead mom

So what happened is that I woke up at around 2am to a crying newborn. I got up and realized V has climbed into our bed so I took E to V’s bed to change and feed. I usually change diapers before I nurse to get it out of the way. So I turned a lamp on and proceeded. His poops are very irregular, as in he doesn't have a poop schedule really. Sometimes he’ll poop two days in a row and sometimes he’ll go four days without pooping. That is what was happening then.

I’ll spare you the minute details and tell you that he PROJECTILE CRAPPED THREE TIMES MID-DIAPER CHANGE. AS IN, NO DIAPER ON WHILE POOPING. After the third round of pop squirting, I had to take a minute to gather myself because I was about to cry. No joke. I was covered in baby shit and no matter how many times I called for Victor, he did not respond. After a few deep breaths later, I stripped down and changed. I stripped Elliot down, gave him a wash, and changed him and prayed he doesn't poop again. I stripped the bed and changed the sheets AT 2 IN THE MORNING

One of her favorite toys right now is a doctor’s kit (thanks to the kids’ show Doc McStuffins) and these glasses are so fun!

Quality time with the family dog while the kiddos are with their grandpa. The crisp winter air paralleled the crunchy grassy ground and it was perfect

Also, I was granted a me + E time as Vic and Violet go out for a walk :)

My New Year’s Eve. To these little ones, this day means nothing. Which to me, it doesn’t mean so much either. I mean, it’s just another day. A day preceding a whole new year but whatever

Vic and I finished 2016 with some cheap cheap sparkling wine that tasted like asscrack

Random selfie request in the middle of our nighttime routine! Here we are snuggled in bed, reading books. You can’t see the exhaustion on my face
