A First and a Photo Shoot

Yesterday was a big day for me...
Brax went on his first sleep over!
Mike took him to Aunt Laura's house around 10 am on his way to go golf out that way. He's golfing again today near Aunt Laura's, so he'll pick him up after nap.
That's over 24 hours away from me!!!! I could write a whole other post on the issues I have with "letting go." Let's just say that this was a huge step for me!

I teared up a bit after I went inside, but Brax could not have been more excited for his visit!

Got his snack for the car ride... He was good to go!

While the boys were gone, I had more time than I knew what to do with!
It was actually pretty nice to have some time where I wasn't feeling like I had to be entertaining and engaging with one kid or another.

I purged my closet and got rid of any clothes that remind me that my abs are not what they used to be. I painted Harper and I's toes purple (pics to come, if I remember to take one!), and we did a little photo shoot. Her hair looks SO red in some of these, but it's really not... I would love it if it were... I PAY to get my hair this color!

This one is my favorite... I love the surprised look on her face!

This isn't the greatest pic, but she was talking up a storm and it was so sweet!

We took a nap break...

Then we were back in action...

I love this one!! Look at those sparkly eyes.
