1SE April 2020


I actually made this on May 1 but I forgot to post it! This was the first entire month where we were on SIP.

We biked, red books, played, cooked, walked, exercised, ate, cleaned, and more. Dave got his antibody test but we never heard back.

Ella's Birthday Video


I put together a video for Ella of 6.5 years of her birthdays. I added a few things that weren't birthdays too. Ella has so many birthday celebrations. She has cake every year on her birthday and then we also do things on her half birthday.

Cleaning Time-Lapse (6.22.20)


I cleaned a lot. I did time-lapse of some of it. I did time lapse of the messiest rooms. I forgot to time lapse record when I cleaned the messy dining room table.  It's crazy how long it takes to clean the kitchen all the time.  The rest of the house all put together takes less time than the kitchen. (Well except our living room right now.)

6/10/20 instastories


Snack tray for lunch was a hit. Liam would not put down Ella's sandals. Miles woke Liam up from nap. I pushed Miles on the swing. It's a lot harder to get good pushes when holding Liam. I cleaned up the patio a bit. It's still too covered and basically unusable.  Liam scares Poly. I did a workout. I skipped 2 moves my ankle couldn't handle. I cleaned the kitchen and did dishes.

6/3/20 instastories



I woke up to cat throw up on my freshly cleaned carpet. Liam eats in bed, crawls through the cat door, helps himself to snacks, sits on the dining room table, eats, and more.   Ella still had to do school. Miles was playing. Miles also asked to just eat the marshmallows in Lucky Charms and he was so cute I let him.

#itsmomchallenge Week 4

May 27






















I didn't make much progress at all.


That's the entire month. I had more than 1 picture a day. I had more than 1 collage a day. I learned you can only save 100 stories to one highlight bubble on instagram and I filled it before finishing the month. I have not taken nearly as many photos in June as I did in May.  I still want to compare some 2019 and 2020 photos of us doing similar things as a family and see how they look.

6/2/20 video


Here's what I would have put on instastories if it wasn't black out Tuesday. Since then I haven't really been posting on stories either. It just feels weird. This took entirely too long to compile of stuff I did throughout the day and to get it in the right order and label it.

Miles jumped on the bed. A brief screen grab of my feed with so much #blackouttuesday stuff. I did diversify my feed a bit since.  Liam crawled through the cat door. We went for a walk. I cleaned bedroom carpets. They were filthy. We used a new swing.  The kids like to jump from the dresser onto the bed.

#itsmomchallenge Week 3

May 17-May 23

We jumped in the puddle in our driveway. I even got Liam out of his little car to jump. 

To my surprise we walked a mile to find all the puddles. I don't usually push the red car that far since it's so loud. Miles walked the entire way. When Ella is around, nobody wants to walk so long.
After our walk, we had our family meeting outside. everyone climbs all over me.

And it worked! Typo above!
Ella and I finished making her crowns so we could drop them off to her friends.  i have time lapse video of us but it's too much trouble to insert a million videos.
Longest run in 4.5 years. I had one slightly shorter than this in November 2019.




I took these photos to remember the everyday. He doesn't often sleep sitting up on me.



















Look closely at his head!

Ella's PE class was field day. They told everyone to get siblings and parents involved.  Miles wouldn't do it, so then I did. It's so weird to do a zoom field day compared to the awesome field days they would normally have.
School almost always looks the same.




A new long run since 2015.


Look at that tight hug.


Liam helped me lower his crib. 


I probably included these pictures but then I did a summary. I actually ran again so this was not even the total! i ran 20.0 total in a week. 

I know I'm not in this one but its also the family meeting.
Weekly family meeting but this week it was outside at Murphy Park.

Here i am trying to get to the car and all the kids climb into the wagon. (Well Liam was already in it.)

(I rearranged the furniture holding Liam but that's a video so you have to check out the album for it.)
