Iris becoming a big sister has been one of my favourite things to watch.

She’s still only three herself, so naturally there’s a healthy amount of “that’s MINE” mixed in with the love. 😂

But then you catch one of those little moments between her and Silas where he looks at her like she’s the funniest person on earth.

That’s the good stuff. ❤️

The girls have apparently decided whether we get eggs is entirely up to them.

Some days: practically nothing.

Other days: HERE, TAKE ALL OF THEM. 😂🥚

There appears to be no middle ground.

I just work here.

One of my favourite things about Peyton is that she’s very much her own person. ❤️

She knows what she likes, what she doesn’t like, and she’s never been afraid to let you know the difference. 😂

Watching her grow into herself has been pretty amazing.

Even if she does occasionally remind me that she’s not five anymore.

(As if I needed the reminder. 😭😂)

I swear I spend half my life saying, “Once I get caught up…”

Caught up on the house.
Caught up on work.
Caught up on things for The Drowsy Hen.
Caught up on everything I’ve been meaning to do.

At this point I’m starting to think “caught up” is a fictional place and none of us have actually been there. 😂

So I’m calling it.

If the important s**t got done and everybody survived the week, we’re doing just fine. ❤️

Airbnb cleaning has taught me many things.

Mostly that people do things on vacation that apparently cannot be explained by science. 😂

There are days I walk into a place and just stand there for a second thinking…

How?

Then I get to work. 😂

Mom lived with me for most of my life, so losing her didn’t just leave an empty place at holidays or family gatherings.

It changed the feeling of home.

There are still moments when something happens and, for half a second, my brain expects her to be right there.

Grief is strange that way.

Your life changes completely, while the rest of the world somehow just keeps going. ❤️

Apparently my car freshie post taught me that I haven’t done a very good job explaining these. 😂

Mine are unscented, which means you aren’t stuck with whatever scent somebody decided you should like.

Leave it unscented or add your own fragrance/essential oil.

I put cedarwood essential oil on mine and love it. ❤️

Freshies are $6.

And just like that… summer is over. ❤️

First day of school for these two.

Peyton is heading into another year looking entirely too grown up for my liking, and Nova clearly woke up READY for this. 😂

New backpacks, new classrooms, new adventures and another school year underway.

Meanwhile, the adults are standing here wondering how the hell summer went by that fast.

Have the best first day, girls. ❤️

Well, the babies aren’t looking very baby-ish anymore. 😂🦆

All four have settled into outdoor life just fine.

They’ve got food, water, friends and a pool.

Basically they’re living better than I am at this point. 😂

There is nothing quite like sisters.

They can love each other fiercely and still annoy the absolute hell out of each other. 😂

They know your history, your embarrassing stages, your family stories and exactly which button to push when they feel like being an as***le.

But when life gets hard?

They’re there. ❤️
