My 2 year old and 2 month old

Yesterday when Spencer was talking to me he used the phrase, "the girls" and we both got a huge smile on our face. Something about multiple children/girls made us happy and giddy inside! I can't believe I have a 2 year old and a 2 month old. I feel very blessed and am snuggling my babies each day with gratitude and love. I am so grateful for a happy and healthy family and for 2 beautiful daughters. The days are busy and my nights are cut short but I love being a mom! Each day is an adventure exploring this city that we love. The day is mostly filled with playgrounds, splash pads, the "blue water" (pool), hanging out with friends, walking slow on the sidewalk, and eating lots of snacks. There is usually a meltdown or two. I am usually hot and sweaty pushing our double stroller around the city and by the time we get home and Charley is exhausted I end up carrying Bergen in the carseat in one arm and Charley in the other arm as we walk up to our third floor apt. Living in the city with children is not for the faint of heart, but it is definitely worth it with everything that comes with it. I love being able to walk everywhere! I love the library, children's museum, playgrounds and the park at my fingertips. I love having awesome neighbors where we can go up to our roof and BBQ and hang out. I love raising our daughters in such a culturally diverse place and seeing something new each day! Ok that was a sidetone thought, but here are some pictures I took of Charley in her element exploring the other day. 

And some of my sweet Bergen!
