After the twins were born, Matt took a whole month off of work. It was amazing. Matt works out of town and is gone for 9 days at a time, then home for 5 straight days. I couldn’t even imagine him being gone at all in that first month, so it worked out that he could take two trips off and be home with me. I think this made a HUGE difference for how our life as a family of 7 started out. Plus, the twins were happy and sleeping (yay!), so we did A LOT of beach days. Talk about dreamy. So we lounged in babies, had beach days, relaxed and enjoyed all the love from everyone until right after the 4th of July. It actually worked out perfectly too, because that week after the 4th, his company had some meetings up here, so he was working, just not on the road. It was the perfect transition week for me.

I’m having a really really good day over here and I am just relishing in it. You know those days that you get so many things checked off your check list and it’s only 11am? Yes, one of those days. I was just checking in with myself, like “hmm…maybe I should take a nap.” But, I’m not tired! Ahhh I love the second trimester. Instead, I sat down to write this blog…for the second time. I started it last week, and it was so good…and I didn’t save it. Gonezo. I was devastated, but I decided to put my computer down and the words would come to me another day in another way. Obviously that wasn’t the blog that was meant to get posted. Moving on.
