Consistency.

..... or lack thereof. I am yet again a terrible blogger.

In any case, in the month+ that has passed since I last wrote several things have taken place. My friend Sara got married (and she was a beautiful bride, of course!), we made zero progress with the house we're still in the process of purchasing (unless you count all of my decor boards I've made as progress, ha), we found out big family news, we've made big decisions and tons of other little things that I'm sure I'm forgetting :)

I mostly want to talk about today, though. You know you've had an amazing day when you actually feel inspired to write about it. I've only slept 3 or so hours in the past 30+ hrs, so this will be much shorter than I'd like. Not to mention I have an adorable husband that is already in bed, SNORING and I want to go snuggle up to him since we're usually on very opposite sleep schedules due to work.

I'm not sure if it was the sleep deprivation or what, but I felt so laid back today (which is not a typical state of being for me, unfortunately). I never got tired last night so very early this morning I randomly decided to watch our wedding video. It brought back all of the happiness of our wedding day! Michael woke up and watched it with me and we laughed about all of the things that went wrong during our ceremony-- realizing that none of it matters at all in the grand scheme of things. I am SO glad that we stuck with our decision to hire a videographer. Our photographs are amazing but there's something so beautiful about seeing it all "live," if you will. In any case, we then had breakfast with Michael's brother Tony, his friend Phil and Phil's two children. It was just nice to be there with good company!

After breakfast we went to Michael's parents' house where we spent the remainder of our day. Our adorable nephew Isaac was there and it was great to have the whole day to spend with him because I felt like I hadn't loved on him in forever. Phil and his children stopped over as well, and between his 19 month-old daughter Bella and 10 month-old Isaac, there was so much fun! Watching them play and be curious, exploring anything and everything, made me so excited for the day I'm watching our children play. It was the first time in months that we actually saw all four of Michael's siblings in one day. I love my husband's family more than I could ever express and it is great to feel so at home with them. I couldn't have been blessed with more amazing in-laws!

It was such a simple, casual day but I wouldn't trade blowing bubbles, taking naps, stacking blocks or watching our nephew learn to crawl for anything else in the world. It fills me with so much joy to see Michael holding Isaac and crawling on the floor with him and I long for the day it is with our children :)
