That's what way I feel these days.
Seriously.
Yep, I'm sleep deprived b/c Ruby girl is going through a little phase of waking a TON at night.
And yes, we've entered the terrible two's where both say "uppy" all day long wanting to be held OR have a meltdown over the teeniest little thing (Hello, how could I put water in THIS cup not THAT cup and without ice? Ugh, the little specifics)
BUT.....the pure JOY of being a mom, and not just a mom to any children but to MY 3 children is overwhelming.
They are so incredible.
Little people that Blake and I get to wake up to each day. Smiley Ruby, cuddly Hudson and chatty Harper. I'm greeted literally EVERY MORNING with the biggest hug from Hudson as he wraps his arms tightly around my neck when I lift him out of his crib. Harper quickly scrambles to her feet and says "Good Mornin, Good Mornin". And Ruby, sweet Ruby is usually all smiles with her chubby face poking out of her tighly swaddled body.
We have been so incredibly blessed with our au pair, Ivonne. I'm not convinced that she is real. She seriously just laughs and shrugs off the meltdowns the twins have or the fit Ruby has...she just seriously fits into our family and makes us so happy.
Yes, there are days when we collapse on the couch after putting all 3 in bed and look at each other in disbelief. They are exhausting. And we do get frustrated. But overall, above everything I feel like I'm the luckiest woman alive. I do feel like I need to be pinched...this is really MY life!
