life with two sets of twins
Do you and your spouse celebrate your “date-iversary”? We don’t typically buy gifts or do anything over the top for it but we do like to acknowledge it. A “date-iversary” is the day you and your significant other started dating. Today is the day Cody and I started dating TEN YEARS AGO.
We will be celebrating our five year wedding anniversary this year too but how could we not celebrate the fact that we’ve been through 10 years of our life together!?
These are some of my favorite blog posts to write! I love reflecting on the year and creating a little highlight reel. 2019 was a good year! We had so many family getaways, Cody and I had lots of alone time and we crossed something off our bucket list. Not pictured in this blog is the intense amount of healing we through as a couple. I think if I could put a word on this year, it would definitely be healing. I hope that 2020 has more healing in store for us but also lots and lots of happiness.
Good LAWD, I can’t believe I just typed out that title. THREE!?! Their lives have flown right past me. I think that’s a common response from most parents though – the days are long but the years are short. There are no truer words!
Since I’m cheap, I like to take their milestone pictures myself. I do think I’m getting better at it as the years go on, for someone who has ZERO photography training anyways.
I packed them up and headed to a nearby park. We hiked through some wilderness and had to use a ton of bug spray to get these but it was so worth it! They were the sweetest little angels and did every pose I told them too … sike. We did end up with a few good shots though.
2018 was one of the fastest years of my life! It has also been one of the hardest for me. I’ve been through a lot of shit this year. It was hard for me to find joy in writing this post at all. I’m glad I decided to do it though because it was nice looking back on the GOOD things that actually happened. Here’s to hoping for a better 2019!
I honestly can’t believe my babies had their SECOND birthday party. I was just telling Cody that I can’t even remember what life was like without our little twinners. He said he can remember how easy it was (LOL). Ahh, yes they may make traveling, or leaving the house in general and sleeping in more complicated but I think we’ll keep them. 😉
I had so much fun preparing for their party this year! I was searching for a cute theme and it’s hard to find one that is gender neutral. Everything is either super girly or super boyish. I finally landed on the “TWO”tti Frutti theme and I’m so happy with how it turned out!
