Sea World Extravaganza

 If we go anywhere I always carry Tryst in the Baby Bjorn, because now if you carry him without it he tries to buck back to get out of your arms.
I love this hat but now I try to put it on him and he will snatch it off his little head. I remember Harlowe did the same thing, oh well.







Parker feeding the dolphin's. This boy has no fear, Harlowe on the other hand, scared-y cat.


Harlowe would just drop the fish in but Parker pet the dolphins and everything.




I have been noticing lately Dustin is no where to be found in the pics. This boy cannot hold Tryst but for a minute and then he starts whining. I know he is stronger than me so what is the deal, I guess it is the mother's duty, ha.





Oh my gosh, Harlowe is doing it on her own, so proud. That is Harlowe with the matted hair, holding the fish. Put on the hat girl, I am taking your pic, ha.



Dustin's idea


I love this little blue eyed baby. His eyes are not changing thus far so maybe they are here to stay.




Sea World has a little kiddy area with a bunch of rides. We did not hit it until the very end so they only rode one ride because we had to see the night time Shamu show.




We are having a dilemma in our household, Dustin is having a very hard time watching the kiddos on his own. I can post this because he never reads the blog so he won't kill me. I really feel bad for him because I can see it in his face that it is so hard for him. How do people do it? School is so expensive and daycare, I don't even want to think about it.

I have to work so I just don't know what to do? I really have to say we are hands on parents and we don't really have any help. If anyone has some suggestions I am all ears. I am cringing just reading this post because having kids is difficult and this is what parents are supposed to do, suck it up and deal, right?

Most of my adult life I have been hoping and praying for children and a family, and I have a wonderful family and God has blessed me in so many ways. Hopefully God will throw a little blessings onto Dustin, ha.


I am sitting here re-reading my post and thinking to myself, should I delete this? No, I am putting it all out there and maybe some day Dustin and I will look back on this and remember the good and the bad. It was funny tonight before he went to bed, he said, I love these kids to death but this is the hardest thing I have ever done. He said if I can get through this, running a business will be a piece of cake.

Reading this and thinking about our life together gives me a lump in my throat, I know it isn't what we expected but in the end it is so rewarding and fulfilling. I cannot imagine my life without them.

  1. Hey girl -- trust me -- I know how some days at home can be challenging. We are blessed to have a very sweet lady come and watch the girls 2 1/2 days/week. That is the perfect amount of time for breaks and to get errands ran. I would also check into local churches to see if they have a "Mother's Day Out" program (I'm sure it's good for Daddies, too!). Tell Dustin to hang in there! :)
