My new life as a Stay at home mom

Being a stay at home
Mom isn't quite what I envisioned. I thought we would constantly be doing fun things. The house would be spotless and I would cook every night. But to be honest we stay home most days, the house is constantly destroyed and we eat out all the time. That being said I'm working on it everyday and making changes and hopefully one day we will be where I want to us to be. 
Right now we are working on potty training with Chloe. It's a slow process as I'm pretty unorganized but we finally made some progress and she will potty at home for me. Unfortunately she doesn't do as great at my moms house but I think she just gets excited when she is there. I'm hoping that in a week or so we will start seriously training and get rid of the pull ups for good...at least during the day time. Maybe after Labor Day so we aren't worrying about trying to get our 2 year old to pee in the woods at the lake 😁! Or in the car on the long drive there. We haven't been doing very much since I started school last week, but hopefully we will have some fun experiences to talk about soon. Have a great weekend!

Changes

Apparently I am not as good at posting updates as I thought I would be. It's a bummer because I want to document the experience of parenthood as best I can and be able to look back on all of the fun we had. I would love to make a vow to be better at posting but frankly I can't make any promises on my time right now. I just do t understand how some of these moms put there with 7,8,9 kids or more find time to blog and care for their families, and homeschool, cool, clean, ect. I can only assume that they have their lives much more organized then I have mine. Or at least have better time management skills. For now though I will just focus on one post at a time and I'll start with talking about the changes happening in our house. 
We ended 2014 on a good note. We had a great Christmas and enjoyed doing mores activities with Chloe. 
             We got to go meet Santa, and see the pretty trees at the Mall. 
   
       Then we decorated cookies at Grammy's house. Daddy had to help but Chloe enjoyed the activity. 

We also got to see Nanny. And have breakfast the day after Christmas at the same little diner in Piedmont that we did last year. 

Chloe was the center of attention
Being the youngest and
Received WAY to many toys but it was the perfect way to spend her last Christmas as an only child. 
Then, Not too long after Christmas we welcomed the new addition to our family that we have been waiting for since June.
 

Liam James Davis, born on January 19th, 2015. He weighed 6lbs 7 oz. and was 19.5 inches long. I will post about his specific birth story later, for now I just wanted to focus on introducing our newest addition. 
We are so happy and feel incredibly blessed to have two children.
