Really there's 2 of them?????

So until recently I guess it didn't really feel like I had 2 kids more like 1 at a time daily but now that Azariah is completely mobile and can get ANYWHERE Micah can my life just got about 10 times harder. Micah just figured out how to open the front screen door and the other day I was "trying" to cook dinner and came back out to find my Toddler outside on the front porch with his sippy cup and blankey and right after him was baby Azariah crawling right after him. Our house we have claimed all along as being Micah proof not necessarily baby proof but Micah proof because he didn't really get into a whole lot well now we get to baby proof or Azariah proof our house because he LOVES all cords and thinks they ALL need to be chewed on. His other favorite spot is the trash can in the kitchen while Micah's new fasination is either trying to figure out how to get outside or crash the computer.

So now all cleaning has to either be done with the boys or while they are sleeping and making dinner is next to impossible unless it takes under 5 mins so they can be contained with a snack in their high chairs or Daddy's home and can rangle them.

On a better note tho it's still the best thing ever to see Azariah test his boundaries every day and go a little further each time, he crawled into our room the other day and he was SO PROUD of himself it was really cute. Micah now says love you daddy and mommy and that just melts our hearts every day... He tells Tom bye daddy love you everyday before he goes to work and says love you before he goes down for nap. So no matter HOW hard life has gotten just this week I wouldn't trade it for the world I LOVE raising my boys and watching them experience new things.

I have recently also joined the couponing world which has been pretty fun, Tom joins in with me and trys to help me find more coupons online, then we go as a family to the store to see what great deals we got. Last night I bought 10 bags of Quaker Rice snacks and only paid $1.10 for all of them. I don't know what I've done all this time without coupons but I am def glad I've started using them and I KNOW I will be saving a lot of money.

With cooking I have found a wonderful new way to make my favorite foods without taking a ton of time over the stove making it a lot safer with my two travelers. I've started making oven fried foods and Tom likes it and I'm able to prepare dinner in my under 5 min time frame before Tom gets home then i can finish later once he is home. I also made a really yummy potato soup last night I can't wait til is COOLS off outside so I can make it more often.
