Yesterday we got home from a week long trip to Connecticut to visit my family. I’m exhausted, there are toys and clothes all over our living room that need to be unpacked, and we barely have any food in the house (Don’t get me started on my email situation) BUT it is so good to be home.

I always leave Connecticut with the same feeling. I wish I could stay just a little bit longer and visit more with the people I love and miss. I never get to see EVERYONE that I want to. I did hang out with some of my favorite friends this time around, and we went to the ocean with my sister! Oh how I’ve missed the ocean!! I think my favorite part of this trip though was all the cuddles. Flynn fell asleep in my arms several times, something he never does anymore, and I just loved it.

The car trip went much smoother than I anticipated. The kids were rock stars, we only had a few tough moments but I was able to keep them pretty well entertained. I was the most worried about Flynn. He has been known to scream relentlessly on hour-long car trips. Seriously though, he was awesome on BOTH legs of this trip. He woke up at 4 in the morning on the way home and giggled for an hour straight. His good mood was definitely a gift from God and I can’t be convinced otherwise.

So now I’m back, from outer space, I just walked in to find you here with that same look upon your face… (Can you tell I’m having attention span issues today? Ha!) I have a lot of catching up to do this week. It’s time to get back on track and start rocking at life again. It’s September! I just realized that. Wow. Anyhow, here are some Instagram pics from August. It was a fun month!
