I have said this a million times before and yet it never gets old. Some how life with children can move quickly and slowly at the same time. It feels like forever ago that I was pregnant and welcoming our sweet baby into this world, and yet I can't believe James is almost six months. Life though feels very different. We have a good balance and things are so much easier now. During the first few months, juggling a newborn and toddler seemed like a lot, but looking back I realize it was some serious work. Now the days are smoother, we are settled, and I have a baby that is just a bundle of smiles.
James is still my cuddly little boy and he simply adores Juliet. At gymnastics today I took him out of the ergo and let him bounce on a few tumble pads and pretend to be part of the action with his sister. I don't know if I have ever seem him so happy. He waved his arms, smiled bigger than ever, and danced his little legs. All the while Juliet jumped around him and encouraged him on by holding his hands and laughing with him. It was one of those simple, yet heart stopping moments that cause you to think how blessed life is.
And yes there are still 4:45 a.m. start times, my tailbone continues to ache, and we have officially hit the "terrible twos", but I can't help but feeling like these are some of the best days of my life so far.
